So I have been eating cereal......now tired of that.


If you don't want to give up a bowl of something cold and wet in the
morning, you could try what I do. Original Fiber One has only 11 net
carbs per serving, and is sweetened with aspartame instead of sugar. I
will have maybe a half-serving of that, a few tablespoons of chia seed,
some crushed walnuts or pecans and maybe a handful of berried. Add
almond milk and a splash of heavy cream. Yummy!

I've been using Honeyville Farms textured vegetable
protein as a cold cereal. With some half and half,
a dash of vanilla, and splenda it tastes real good to
me. Not as good as the Atkins cereals when they
were available, but still very good and LC. Has a slighlty
nutty flavor. Toss in a couple sliced strawberries
and you're good to go.

HF is also a source for polydextrose which I use in some
desserts
