I tried the following recipe for breakfast this morning. My opinion of it follows.

Flaxmeal Cereal (by Linda S)

1/4/ cup flaxseed meal
1/2 cup water

Mix the flaxseed meal and water in a bowl and microwave for 1-1/2 minutes.

Then I put a nice chunk of butter, a little half and half, a little Atkins pancake syrup, a sprinkle of cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of sliced almonds.

The taste was great. The texture, however, reminds me of eating boiled okra. Does anyone have any suggestions for changing the texture to something that more resembles a cooked cereal?

I'm thinking of trying it on the stove next time to see if that changes it. Has anyone tried a cooked flaxmeal cereal like that? I don't want to buy Flax-O-Meal. I would rather make my own both for convenience and price savings.
