I found this on another website http://photopics.com/cgi-bin/show-recipe.asp I tried it this morning and it is very tasty believe it or not. I also called GNC to see what the calories and carbs were in the pure psyllium husks were. She told me there was no significant calories or carbs. My guess is some how there is. However the Atkins book does recommend taking this. I also do not know if cooking the husks changes the chemistry of them and changes how they will react in your body. If anyone knows please post and let me know.


Pysllium Husk Crackers

3 heaping teaspoons of pysillium husk powder in a bowl
1 tablespoon olive oil/ I used canola someone else used corn
1.5 tsp salt
1 tsp onion powder
1 cup water

mix psyllium husk powder, olive oil, salt and onion powder in a bowl. Add water 1/2 cup at a time. Stir well and allow to sit for one min between adding water. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a cookie sheet. Once mixture is gloopy pour onto sheet. you can also drop like cookies.
Check after 30 min. A large bubble will have formed, stick a fork in it and pop it. Cook another 10 - 15 min according to the crispness you want it. Becareful it burns very quickly. It actually tasts like a chip.

I also read someone else used a splash of vanilla, 3 pkts of splenda in place of the onion powder and cooked the same. also added 1tsp of cocoa. These variations will have more carbs account for them.

I am thinking I am going to count the whole batch as 1 carb. Any more suggestions would be helpful. Hope you like it.
