OOPSIE ROLLS

8 oz cream cheese
8 eggs
pinch of cream of tarter
some sugar (splenda)
some salt

separate the eggs, whip the whites with the cream of tarter. Mix the yokes with the bit of sweetner, salt and cream cheese. When the whites are really stiff, fold them into the yokes. I spoon them into pam sprayed muffintop pans and get 12 Oopsies. Bake for 22-24 mins at 300. Midway through baking I take the pans out, turn them around and change places with each other for uniform color.


i find they only take 10 - 1 mins, i add some herbs to mine too.
or add cinammon or ginger to make sweet bread.

FLAXSEED PANCAKES

2 eggs
3 tablespoons of milled flaxseed
bit of cream
some splenda

It`s really up to you how much you put in, until it looks like normal pancake mix then fry with bit of butter.
I also add cinammon or nutmeg.

add more butter once cooked or cream

ooh yum! Shopping for flaxseed at the weekend!! I am guessing health food shop?

there are a lot of recipes on the other sticky menu thread, maybe they can be copied and pasted,

Flax Foccacia
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
· 2 cups flax seed meal
· 1 Tablespoon baking powder
· 1 teaspoon salt
· 1-2 Tablespoons sweetening power from artificial sweetener
· 5 beaten eggs
· 1/2 cup water
· 1/3 cup oil
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare pan (a 10X15 pan with sides works best) with oiled parchment paper or a silicone mat.

1) Mix dry ingredients well -- a whisk works well.

2) Add wet to dry, and combine well. Make sure there aren't obvious strings of egg white hanging out in the batter.

3) Let batter set for 2 to 3 minutes to thicken up some (leave it too long and it gets past the point where it's easy to spread.)

4) Pour batter onto pan. Because it's going to tend to mound in the middle, you'll get a more even thickness if you spread it away from the center somewhat, in roughly a rectangle an inch or two from the sides of the pan (you can go all the way to the edge, but it will be thinner).

5) Bake for about 20 minutes, until it springs back when you touch the top and/or is visibly browning even more than flax already is.

6) Cool and cut into whatever size slices you want. You don't need a sharp knife; I usually just cut it with a spatula.

At 12 servings, each piece of bread has less than one gram of carbohydrate -- .8 to be exact -- plus 5 grams of fiber.

MINCEd BEEF recipe

Fry 500 gr of lean mince with a small chopped onion.
Add tsp of cumin, tsp of chilli powder, tsp of paprika, garlic,salt and pepper to taste.
some chopped chillis to taste.
When cooked press into the bottom of an oven proof dish.

whisk together 3 eggs, 1/2 cup may, 1/2 cup double cream and 8 oz of grated cheddar. ( I think 1/2 cup would be roughly 4 tablespoons. I think there is a sticky with conversions)
Pour mixture on top of mince and bung in oven for 40 mins 170 centigrade for fan
prob 180 for others.
YUMMY.
For those that don't like spicy just change seasoning. Atkins recommend chopped cooked bacon.
Really you could do whatever you want with the mince. It's the topping that makes it

Salmon & Prawn with Courgette Tagliatelle
About 8carbs for whole recipe.
Ingredients:
200g Salmon
100g Prawns
Couple of knobs of butter
100g Mascarpone
100ml cream
200g Courgettes
Put a couple of knobs of butter on the salmon, wrap in foil and cook in the oven. 180ºC for 25 mins.
Put Mascarpone and cream in a pan and heat gently. I used milk and it was just the right consistency, so if using cream it may be better to thin down. Add prawns to liquid and simmer.
Using a potato peeler, ‘peel’ the courgette into ribbons. Melt some more butter in a frying pan, add the courgettes and fry.
When salmon is cooked, break into pieces and add to pan containing prawns. Give a good stir to mix salmon and prawns.
Pour sauce over courgettes in pan, give a good stir. Transfer to plate. I added loads of black pepper and it was gorgeous.

Back in fridge and voila MOUSSE !!!!!!!

Flaxmeal Bread

75g flaxmeal
2 large eggs

1/2 tsp salt OR 2 tsp cocoa and a sachet of splenda

Mix all ingredients together, pour into a greased bread tin or (better) a silicon mould, bake in a pre-heated oven for 16-18 minutes at 200 celcius. It's done when a toothpick comes out clean.

It comes out at something like 596 cals, 29g protein, 52g fat and around 2g net carbs a loaf.

Flax meal is actually linseed which you buy and grind yourself in a coffee grinder.
