At only 1.5 net carbs and all the other healthy fat goodness of flax, plus 12g of protein, plus how quick and easy it is to make, I was hoping this could become a regular menu item for me, but at those calories, I will need to budget for it.


MizKitty - I was thinking the same thing, but what about just having one half at a time? and have your burger or sandwich open-faced?

Also, I saw that Elizellen makes hers with half the flax and fat, I think I might try it her way and see what happens.
