I nuked mine on a dinner plate cause I don't have any microwavable containers that were fit for the job and I wanted to try this now! I went for 2 minutes and it came out fine, cut it 4 ways and made a grilled cheese wedge. I'm thinking pizza with this. Nuking it on the plate yielded a fairly flat surface on the top that wouldn't soak up too much sauce, and then it could go straight in the oven. I'm so much happier now.

Great idea, Mike! I often add some mixed 'italian herbs' to the mixture and make a pizza base too.

dh and I love this recipe. These days I make lots of tuna, turkey, egg, and chicken salads up and pile on top of this bread then top with shredded cheese and serve sweet pickles (splenda) and sliced tomatoes on the side. Talk about good eating!! Very filling and it's so nice to have some form of bread again. Of course dh loves the fact that I'm in the kitchen making him homemade bread these days! hehe I have also made up meatball sandwiches using this bread which are good but kinda hard to eat without a fork. Any suggestions on how to make the recipe where it will hold up eating with your hands I'd appreciate. I've been making mine up really thin.

Been wondering how this would taste as a pizza crust! Think I'll give it a try tonight for dinner. Thanks.

By the way, not sure if you know it or not but you don't actually have to use a microwave container. Any glass one should work fine so long as it doesn't have any metal on it. Next time you are near a Dollar Store just pick up a simple glass casserole pan. If I could I'd email you one since I have several! lol

Hmm bet we could make some good casadias too. Your cheese wedges make me think of that.

Hey, Cissie, how 'bout making the pizza crust idea, cutting into wedges, putting cheese, chicken, etc. in between, sandwicing them, then putting them on the Forman Grill?! I used to make chicken cheese quesedillas all the time like this, with regular tortillas! I tell ya, we could do some damage in a kitchen together!

I did that also with a glass pie plate and used the flax flat bread recipe. It was pliable enough to fold over and I had tuna salad in it. Real tasty!!

When I make this recipe, I use an old tupperware container, about 6"x 3" and I cut it into 4 regular size slices.

That's what I use also. Must be why I get less than the eight.

Foreman grill? Now that's cause for Panini Napolitan's: Mozzarella, tomatoes, chicken, green pepper sandwiched between lightly buttered flax bread on the Foreman. Best hot sandwich ever IMO.

Default Muffin in a Minute

Sorry if this is a repeat......but I found this muffin in a minute recipe and just tried it. Really good too and very similar to Ellizellen's recipe.

1/4 cup flax meal
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 packet splenda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 large egg
1 teaspoon of butter

1. Put dry ingredients in a coffee mug (or bowl for different shape)
2. Stir
3. Add egg and butter. Mix.

Microwave 1 minute on high.
Take out, slice, butter, enjoy.

Cream cheese would go nicely too.

Serving size: 1

Notes: 1.5 net carbs
Per serving: 235 calories; 18g fat (63% calories from fat); 12g protein; 11g carbs; 223mg cholesterol; 284mg sodium

So since there are four tabelspoons of flax in the bread and the bread has 8 slices than I could have two slices a day maybe instead of one tablespoon of flax in my water? I am taking the pills right now and it says to take five to six of them twice a day to get things "going"...I would rather eat this delicious bread!! Is my rambling rational??

I buy a low carb bread, but this version is lower and tastes much better :-)


How much splenda do you use in the muffin recipe?

I used 4 tablespoons of ground flax. Was that wrong? Should I have used less?
