An alternative for bread if you are eating low carb and diabetic.
I saw this recipe on Diet Doctor, and loved it and wanted to share it.

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon psyllium husks (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

1 Separate the eggs, with the egg whites in one bowl and the egg yolks in another. 2 Whip the egg whites together with the salt until very stiff. You should be able to turn the bowl over without the egg whites moving. 3 Mix the egg yolks and the cream cheese well. If you choose, add the psyllium seed husk and baking powder (this makes the Oopsie more bread-like). 4 Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mix – try to keep the air in the egg whites. 5 Put 6 large or 8 smaller oopsies on a baking tray. 6 Bake in the middle of the oven at 150° C (300° F) for about 25 minutes – until they turn golden. 7 You can eat Oopsies as bread or use them as a bun for a hotdog or hamburger. You can also put different kinds of seeds on them before baking them, for instance poppy, sesame or sunflower seeds. One big Oopsie can be used for a swiss roll: Add a generous layer of whipped cream and some berries. Enjoy.
