    I am itching for some cracker or bread p3 suggestions!

    I read on another thread that they have flax seed crackers in the raw section of Whole Foods that are p3 friendly and wheat bran crackers (100% fiber no starch, I would love the brand name!) worked out well for someone here.

    any more suggestions or recipes?

    Cheese Biscuits
    1/4 C Organic Coconut Oil or melted butter (I used butter)
    1/3 C Organic Coconut Flour
    4 Eggs
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp onion powder (I used garlic powder)
    1/4 tsp baking powder
    3/4 C sharp shredded cheddar cheese (recipe calls for 1/2 cup but someone on the internet suggested 3/4 cup and said it works best - I used 3/4 cup)
    Blend together eggs, butter, salt and onion powder. Combine coconut flour with baking powder and whisk into butter until no lumps. Fold in cheese. Drop batter by the spoonful onto a greased cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 15 min. Makes 8 biscuits

    Cauliflower Nacho Chips
    1 16 ounce bag of cauliflower, shredded, chopped or riced
    3 eggs
    3 cups cheese

    Preheat oven to 450 degrees F
    Grease 2 cookie sheets

    Cook or thaw frozen cauliflower. Shred, rice or chop. Mix with egg and cheese. Using 1/4 cup scoop, make 12 6-8” circles on greased cookie sheet(s). Bake at 450 degrees for 12 minutes. Loosen and flip the circles. Bake for another 5 minutes at 450 degrees.

    With a pizza cutter, cut rounds into triangles (about 6 per round).

    Let cool on a rack for 6-8 hours in a cool oven. To store, keep loosely in a bag or a plastic container in the refrigerator or on the counter. Best used within a week of preparation.

    Makes 72 chips.

    Here are a couple links. One of my favorite, because it's so darn easy, if not that healthy for you is taking a peice of DELUXE american cheese (not wrapped kind) and cutting it into 16 tiny peices. Place on the edges of parchment paper that has been cut to fit your microwave. Nuke for 1-2 min. Depending on micro, until lightly brown. you'll discover how done you like them. they taste very similar to a cheeze-it!

    I got that one from here:
    http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/index.html

    And this one is great for using almond flour, xylitol, erythritol, and stevia!

    this is another great one, but harder to sub out the agave she uses. Would be great for P4 if you want to use agave. I'm still undecided on the issue.

    The rosemary crackers looked good and easy, they are a tad bit down on the link page.


    Have fun!

    Oh, and most people use honeyville almond flour

    shipping is only 5 bucks to the lower 48 I pretty sure, too bad I'm in Alaska. I had to pay out the nose!

    The flax crackers I found are called "Foods Alive" in the raw food section. Here are the ingredients: 100% Organic Ingredients: Golden Flaxseed*, Tomato*, Garlic*, Onion*, Celtic Sea Salt.

    The bran crackers are called bran-a-crisp. Ingredients are unprocessed wheat bran and salt. Sort of taste like sawdust plain, but I toast them, add some garlic powder and a little oil spray and they make ok croutons for salad or crushed up to top a casserole or the like.

    you guys have been doing ok with the wheat bran and chick pea flour? just curious about the starches in those for p3.

    Wheat bran is 100% fiber, not a starch. Flour is a starch.

    I would never take wheat bran or any kind of starch in P3. It's high in carbs. I don't follow the thing where you subtract the fiber from the starch and that makes it okay. Straightscoop has been able to do this okay for her but I'd be afraid to try it. http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts/cereal-grains-and-pasta/5742/2

    But Grammy, why would you consider fiber a starch? It's not. I am very scientific in my approach, have done a lot of research on it, and fiber is not the same chemically as sugar and starch and is not treated the same way by the body at all. It is not used for fuel or stored as fat. It is plant cellulose. From that link you gave, it was for a very large one-cup serving of wheat bran, which would send me running to the bathroom quick! It says it's 99% fiber, so only 1% natural sugar/starch. That's far less natural starch than what's found in many vegetables, including aspargus, green beans, and almonds.

    From your link, one cup wheat bran:
