This recipe was in a free booklet that I picked up at my local health food store. I have never tried that brand, but I have to say I like this. Because it contains flaxmeal, I keep the mixture in the fridge, and just add some dried cranberries to the portion I am cooking. I make mine in a tall sided bowl in the microwave for about 2 1/2 minutes, but microwaves vary, so watch closely to prevent boil overs. The nutritional analysis with the recipe indicates 7g carbs, 4g fiber, 9g protein, 10g fat, 150 calories per serving. Ingredients:
1 cup flax seed meal (ground flax seeds, regular or golden) |
1 cup protein powder (suggested is vanilla eas simply whey powder) |
1/2 cup wheat bran |
1/4 cup oat bran |
1/2 cup raw almonds, coarsely ground |
1/4 cup raw unsalted sunflower seeds, coarsely ground |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients. Mix can be stored for later use. I store mine in the fridge.
2. To prepare one serving, simply place 1/4 cup of the mix in a very tall, microwavable bowl, or use a saucepan on the stovetop.
3. Add 1/2 cup of water (you may substitute part of the water for sugar-free syrup, in any flavour desired).
4. Bring to a boil, stirring, and continue to boil and stir for at least two minutes, to thicken.
