Note: Total: 7 carb ,8 slices @ .88 carbs , cut this the same way as you would bread.

3/4 cup soy isolate
2 T powdered egg whites
2 pkts Splenda
2 t baking powder
dash salt
5 T heavy cream
3 eggs, separated
dash cream of tartar
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup oil
Preheat oven 400 and spray 8" loaf pan. Beat egg whites with cream of
tartar until stiff. Mix egg yolks, cream, water and oil. Sift in dry
ingredients and mix well with electric mixer. Fold in egg whites carefully.
Spoon into prepared pan and smooth top slightly. Bake 25 minutes or until

Low-Carb Bread Substitute
Note: Total: 5 carb (4 NET carbs)
Makes 24 thin slices @ .2 carbs
Ingredients:
1/2 c soy isolate
1 t baking powder
3 large eggs
1 T oil
2 T water
2 T heavy cream
2 art. Sweetener
1/2 t cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 and spray loaf pan with non-stick spray. Mix all
ingredients in bowl with whisk until smooth. Spread into bottom of loaf
pan. Bake 15-18 min, let cool 5 min. Remove from pan and finish
cooling.
This makes a loaf about 1" high and the slices look like biscotti. The
bread is a litle dry, but good for making French toast, and toasted with a
lot of butter. You can add basil or other herbs instead of the sweetener
and cinnamon
Garlic / Cheese Biscuits
Note: Total: 26 carb (21 NET carbs)
Makes 18 @ 1.2 carbs
Ingredients:
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cup whey protein powder
1/8 c oil
1/2 c cream
1/4 c water (add slowly, don't make too thin)
1 1/2 t butter extract
3 oz grated cheddar cheese
2 T baking powder
garlic powder (5 healthy shakes)
Preheat oven to 350. Mix all ingredients together. Dough will be almost
like cookie dough. Drop by T onto greased cookie sheet. Bake 10-15 min,
until slightly golden. (Makes 18, 2.1 carbs ea.)
I halved the recipe. These were good, a little dry like biscuits usually
are. We ate them with butter and enjoyed. (The original called for Atkins
Bake Mix, but I like them better with the whey protein powder)
Faux Pasta
Note: Serves 2 @ 4 carb (2 NET carbs)
Ingredients:
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup soy protein isolate
2 T vital wheat gluten*
1 T soy flour
1 egg
1/4 cup water
Mix first 4 ingredients; add egg and water and mix to get bread type dough.
Add more water if necessary. Roll out and cut into strips, or pinch off
into little pieces. Drop into boiling water and let boil 1-2 min. (Not too
long or it will get gummy). Drain and top with sauce.
*The vital wheat gluten I use (Hodgson mill) has 2 carbs and 1g fiber per
Tbsp
This was surprisingly good. I used about 1/2 cup water, and the dough was a
little too sticky to roll out. I didn't want to add any additional flour,
so I pressed with my hands until it was as flat as I could get it, then cut
it in strips. Many of the strips fell apart, but I just dumped it all into
the boiling water and boiled for 2 min, stirring most of the time. There is
very little taste (just like real pasta) but this has a great
texture.
