    Quite a few years ago, I was on Atkins diet. I used to make some "bread" items with gluten flour. I don't have any of them on-hand, but here is the results of a Google search, which shows lots of sites with recipes. There are about 6g carbs in 1/4 cup of gluten flour and 23 per 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour. I also used gluten flour for breaded coating on fried foods. It takes very little to get a nice crunch on shrimp, fish, chicken, etc. Bob's Red Mill makes gluten flour.

    I love the Sarah Lee Whole Wheat with Honey bread. It is 90 cals for 2 slices and only 9 carbs after you subtract the dietary fiber.

    I was on atkins and would make "bread". Was like 3 grams of carbs.
    In a square tupperware bowl mix:
    1/4 cup flaxmeal
    1/8 tsp baking powder
    1 egg
    Salt/pepper/other spices to taste.

    Stick it in the microwave for a minute... voila'!

    Can add cocoa powder and splenda instead of spices for a chocolate cake one, or
    Cinnamon and splenda for a morning muffin.. ( i did the last 2 in a coffee mug, same cooking time)

    The cinnamon uffin one sliced and toated is awesome...

    I will have to see if i can find this. That's better than the Healthy Life I was buying. (9 net carbs vs 13 net carbs).
