You need a small mixing bowl, a fork and a sandwich container or small square storage bowl

In the mixing bowl mix
(this is made from the MIM recipe)
1/4 cup milled flax seed
1 TBSP grated Parmesan cheese (I used the stuff in the green container)
1/2 tsp. baking powder
~stir~ then add
1 tsp. butter
1 egg
mix well and spread evenly in sandwich container or bowl and microwave on high for one minute

let cool for a minute and carefully slice your "loaf" into two slices
Proceed with your normal grilled cheese routine!

My sandwich with 3 slices of cheese(it made big pieces of bread) was 3 net carbs! I could only eat half!

    I clicked this not quite knowing what to expect, but suspecting it'd just be some thing with a bunch of fake or altered products. Nope!! I'm so intrigued by this and I LOVE grilled cheese sandwiches (you can blame them and packaged cookies for my being here, though I'll also credit them with getting me through my very troublesome master's thesis, lol). I so want to try these.

    LOL! I know I never would have believed it either. I am doing low carb more by necessity than by choice and I want to show other people who may need to go this route for health reasons that we can still have the things we love!
  • I'm going to try it- Ty for posting!

    For anyone like me that had no idea what "MIM" meant:

    Muffin in a Minute (MIM)

    allowed on Atkins Induction (this is taken from an American site which is why the fibre is deducted)

    Serving Size: 1

    1/4 cup flax meal (8.09 total carbs, 7.6 fiber) which is 30 grams in weight
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder (0.64 net carbs)
    1 packet splenda packet (0.9 net carbs)
    1 teaspoon cinnamon (1.84 total carbs, 1.2 fiber)
    1 large egg (0.6 net carbs)
    1 teaspoon butter

    (total carbs is 12.07, fiber is 8.8; net carbs is 3.27)

    Put the dry ingredients in a coffee mug.

    Stir.

    Then add the egg and the butter. Mix.

    Microwave 1 minute (or more). Take out. slice, butter, eat.
