I made a 7 layer salad today for the weekend's camping trip. It's 5 carbs for 1 cup. I just googled 7 layer salad and lots of recipes came up! I will be making this again!

My favorite breakfast now!

1 egg
1 zuccini OR Squash
shredded cheese (optional)

Shred the zuccini with a gheese grater
Mix in one egg
Heat a tsp of oil in frying pan and drop in spoonfuls of mixture, flip when edges are brown.

I also do this with 1 yellow squash.
Nice low carb fast breakfast!

Has anyone tried the MIM (muffin in a minute)? I made a chocolate cake one last night & it was really good. Flax has a lot of fiber so it cancels, or almost cancels, out the carbs.

Here's the recipe:

1/4 cup flax meal
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 pkt splenda
2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa
1 large egg
1 teaspoon butter

Put the dry ingredients in a coffee mug.

Stir

Then add egg & butter

mix

Microwave 1 minute ( i had to do it 55 sec since 1 min was too much)

This really fixed my craving for chocolate something & the fiber is nice too.

I found these are more like 3 or 4 carbs when I put the ingredients in the recipe maker. I think I will halve them from now on.
