Atkins has 3 new flavors of cereal, and they are very good. My wife
and I have them for breakfast once or twice a week as an alternative
to eggs and bacon. I just got them in my store today, so take a look
if you are interested - www.LowCarbAdvisor.com

Because I'm starting to get tired of having eggs every morning I visited my
local GNC and bought a low carb hot cereal they sold. It's marketed by "Low
Carb Success" and is called Flax Meal Instant Natural Hot Cereal.

To cook it you just add boiling water to a half cup of cereal. I usually end
up eating close to a cup though. Per half cup it has 13 gms of carbs and 12
gms of fiber along with 130 calories.

The listed ingredients are wheat bran, flax seed meal and soy protein. It's
not really great tasting but not awful either. The biggest problem that I
see is the typical outrageous GNC price.

It seems as though it wouldn't be hard to just mix the ingredients yourself
at lower cost, although I'm not sure of the proportions. Has anyone tried
doing this or have alternate cereal recipes?
