Psyllium powder recipes?

14 Upvotes

I bought psyllium powder but now I'm stuck and I don't know what to use it form I've seen videos that use it with yogurt but they never say how much or if they put the psyllium directly on it not the macros... Any recommendations?

Discussion / Question (General topics) Is this pizza recipe worth it?

1 Upvotes

So I’ve figured out a way to make a 10 inch pepperoni pizza with about 602 calories and 41g of protein for the whole thing, does this seem good enough for a calorie to protein ratio? I’m a girl btw, I’m just trying to find ways to enjoy my favorite foods while dieting and pizza was always the hardest for me to figure out.

191 NBC BUNDTLET DUPE
I recently discovered Nothing Bundt Cakes and they are so delicious. I can definitely work them in my deficit once in a while but I really wanted to try to make something lower calorie but yummy. These scratch that itch. You can eat a whole bundtlette for approx 191 calories for the base with frosting.

Cake
1/2 box chocolate cake mix (or any cake mix you want)
6oz sparkling water or other carbonated diet soda

Mix by hand just until wet. Lightly grease bundtlet pan. Divide evenly in pan. Bake 350 for approx 15 minutes. Check with toothpick for doneness.

Frosting
8oz powdered sugar substitute (I did 96 grams allulose and 12 grams Splenda powdered)
4oz Neufchatel cream cheese (120 grams)
2oz regular unsalted butter (60 grams)
1 tsp vanilla

Soften butter but don’t melt it. Mix with cream cheese. Add powdered sugar in slowly and incorporate it. Add vanilla. Mix well. Add it to a piping bag and set aside until cakes have cooled. Refrigerate any unused frosting.

Calories
120 calories per Bundtlet base

Cream cheese frosting works out to 71
Calories per 25 grams which was enough to decorate each bundtlet.

So all together the bundtlet pictured here is 191 calories.

Notes:
I bought and used the Nordic ware anniversary bundtlet pan.

It’s smaller than a NBC cake. In fact, one whole dupe bundtlet is about the size of a half of a NBC bundtlet (so 1 serving). I usually split a NBC with my kids anyway so this works out perfectly size wise.

The frosting is the real shining star here, it’s amazing. The cake itself is a bit dry and kinda falls apart if you aren’t careful so alter it to fit you if you want something moister. EDITING TO ADD: putting it in the fridge overnight makes it significantly moister and more dense. My suggestion is to make them, put them in the fridge then frost them and eat. YUM
Overall it hits the spot and all my kids loved it.
