Cook the pasta as normal, cool quickly under cold water and refridgerate. (This is for food safety reasons.)Ahhh yes...I think I recall someone telling me that pasta left in the fridge and re heated next day is less fattening and better for you...maybe thats why...woohoo thank you for reminding me...So pleased you can now have a small portion....maybe I will be able to as well...another food to be put to the test
B- 1/2 c Fage with shredded coconut and walnuts
L- (will be) 3 oz strip steak with avocado, salsa, sour cream over greens with cucumber slices on the side
D- (will be) Italian sausage with sautéed spinach, peppers, and mushrooms in butter
S- chia pudding
Last night, I went to a dark place and HAD to have something sweet and rich. So, without falling off the wagon, I redirected myself to a few ounces of softened cream cheese and SF Torani coffee syrup mixed in. Crisis averted and I didn't touch the brownies I made for the kids' choir party.
My cravings have certainly decreased since going LCHF, but they do pop up at the strangest times.
I'd use it anywayGot all inspired by your success @Gezzabelle & thought I'd try making oopsies but my poxy cream of tartar is out of date

Reheat, preferably the same day and enjoy, hopefully, you will get ok result
By the way, linseed and flax seed are the same thing.
I get packets of golden linseed (carb 1.7g per 100g) from Waitrose for £2.25 for 500g (which is less than half the price in Holland & Barrett)
Breakfast was a linseed/flaxseed microwave muffin made with 30g milled seed, a teaspoon of coconut oil, some water to add moisture, an egg plus salt and pepper (and of course half a teaspoon of baking soda to make it rise) thoroughly mixed (melting the coconut oil first) and microwaving at full power for 90 seconds. I had this warm with some cream cheese, some slices of ham and a second fried egg. I make it around 450 calories, 40g fat, 25g protein, 5g carbs and 8g fibre. First blood test fasting before breakfast was 5.7, which dropped an hour later to 5.3 just before I tucked-in and an hour later my reading was 6.0 (afterf a shower, which I mention as for some a shower can raise BG). Will follow with a test on the two hour mark and update this post then. Am also going to do this for lunch and supperOh, and drinks have been two espressos sweetened with sucralose and some water.
Not sure if you were responding to my post but, yes, I know that but I thought I'd be comprehensive in my description as I don't think 'linseed' is a term much used outside of the UKI get mine from Aldi - £1.99 for 250g; there isn't a Waitrose near us. I assume the Waitrose product isn't milled?
Awww sorry...hope you got some now. I didn't use that...I used baking powder instead and it worked perfectlyGot all inspired by your success @Gezzabelle & thought I'd try making oopsies but my poxy cream of tartar is out of date
in the past if stuck I have used vinegar or even lemon juice as a substituteAwww sorry...hope you got some now. I didn't use that...I used baking powder instead and it worked perfectly
Thanks for the tip.....I thought the baking powder or cream of tartar was to make it more bread like in texture? Is the end result the same using vinegar or lemon juice?in the past if stuck I have used vinegar or even lemon juice as a substitute
