I am so glad that worked out. It's amazing how good they are for how easy they are to make, eh?

I use flax meal because in that recipe it has 5 grams of carbs and 5 grams of fiber, and in Atkins fiber offsets carbs, so it counts as ZERO net carbs toward your daily allowance! Plus it's a great source of fiber, protein and short-chain omega-3 fatty acids. So they've become a pretty regular (pun intended) breakfast for me.

But I'm sure you could substitute a variety of different kinds of meal. Almond meal sounds delicious!
