I use psyllium (konsyl) husks which don't have added sugars or fillers, and I make . . . . . PANCAKES!!! That's WAY better than gulping the stuff, I think!
I blend with a hand mixer:
1 TBS psyllium
1 TBS cream
1 egg
dash cinnamon
1/2 tsp splenda
1/4 cup water
Then, I let it sit for 5 minutes to "absorb" a bit. Afterwards, I fry up two little pancakes in some butter. They're surprisingly good on their own, but a little low carb syrup is also nice on top.
This recipe is adapted from one by Susky on another low carb site . . . (I had to give credit where it is due! All I do differently is add cinnamon and splenda. Some folks, who are OWLing, add a litte pumpkin to the pancakes, too. Just in case you're interested!
