Cream cheese pancakes:

Chook said:
The basic recipe is:
80g full fat cream cheese,
3 eggs,
half teaspoon baking powder
a teaspoon of psyllium husk
all whizzed together (I use a stick blender) and let it rest for 5-15 mins before frying in coconut oil or butter (or both). It makes three pancakes

For lemon pancakes its the basic recipe above but I add the grated zest of half a lemon and a few drops of vanilla essence
Then, when the pancakes are cooked, sprinkle with lemon juice and sweetener to taste.

You can use the basic recipe to make all kinds of different flavours - lime and coconut, chocolate, cinnamon, plain vanilla with blueberries, or add a savoury filling. .

Okey... I'm in a bit of wonder right now, I haven't been eating well today, only had a bit of cheese and loads of chicken soup so **** all carbs
(7g according to my fitness pal) and only around 700 cals.

I am carving fried chicken... (time of month) can I have it? How many carbs in it? My local chip shop just fries the chicken doesn't put anything on it, it's just skin and meat no flour or anything. So same as normal chicken made at home?
Any advice?
