Oh, I was lurkin' around and startin' to feel REALLY old cuz I watched Three's Company in prime time, but now I feel better!

I can remember my daddy and mama with one of 'em going outside to turn the big OUTSIDE antenna, "is that better now?" "No, keep turning, okay keep going, keep going, NO, NO go back, go back, GO BACK!"

I feel better now!

Did you use a muffin top pan?

marymc · 01-05-2008, 08:46 PM

I do. I really think it's easier that way plus they come out so much nicer looking, more like a bun. In fact I bought a MTP especially FOR my RRs. I couldn't find a pan around here locally though, had to order it off of Amazon.

That's how I separate the yolk from the white.

And I'm "old", too. I loved watching those shows (and we did not have cable).

how about a clothes hanger for the antenna and a pair of pliers to change the channel....

anyhoo....I wanna know WHY you never shared this recipe with me.....hummm....I'm crushed......

I will have to make these tomorrow---do you know how long it's been since I had anything that even resembled bread....4 yrs...

I have a muffin top pan--ordered online from Carol Wright Gifts

I use it to make mini meat loaves for myself--

marymc · 01-05-2008, 09:05 PM

and sometimes aluminum foil on the clothes hanger too

I don't use a muffin top pan, no. It looks like a GREAT idea for the round shape. They tend to flatted out slightly post-baking, so their shape is a bit round. I should probably get a muffin top pan, but then I'd have to wash it.

Cleo-as my husband tells his kids "That's why I had kids-to wash my dishes!"

cleochatra · 01-05-2008, 09:19 PM

Dear sweet, Lord, Lisa. If I asked my kids to wash a dish, they'd be such a pain in my butt, I'd need to do the job just to make sure they were done well. And then they'd think I was the most cruel mother in the universe.

Of course, I am the most cruel mother in the universe for making them put away their clothes, but that's another thing entirely.

'zactly...

LowCarbSleepyToast · 01-05-2008, 10:01 PM

well I just ate the last one......... I told DH he'd have 1 left when he got off work..

So i'm doing what any dieter with portion control issues would do. I am making another batch. I doctored these up to be savory. I binge less on savory stuff. I mixed in 4tbsp mayo, 1tbsp itallian dressing, 1tbsp pamesan cheese, some salt and peper and covered in itallian spice blend and oregano.

Sorry I spelled most all those words wrong. I'm sleepy and pathetic with food tonight

lildragonfly · 01-06-2008, 09:33 AM

Does anyone have nutrition value of these I need to plug into fitday?

cleochatra · 01-06-2008, 10:12 AM

They are 85 calories per bun and less than a carb. So, for an entire sammich, you're looking at less than 2 carbs and 170 calories.

I plugged ingredients into fitday when I made the new recipe because I wanted to make sure they were still ok.

lisabinil · 01-06-2008, 10:16 AM

Here's the info from Mastercook.

Per Serving (excluding unknown items): 87 Calories; 7g Fat (77.7% calories from fat); 4g Protein; 1g Carbohydrate; 0g Dietary Fiber; 122mg Cholesterol; 121mg Sodium. Exchanges: 1/2 Lean Meat; 0 Fruit; 1 Fat.

LindaSue · 01-06-2008, 10:39 AM

I count mine as just half a carb each since they're closer to half than one carb. Hey, if they can round the numbers down on food labels, why can't I, LOL? If you run the whole batch through MasterCook, it only has four carbs.

Per Batch: 525 Calories; 45g Fat; 25g Protein; 4g Carbohydrate; 0g Dietary Fiber; 4g Net Carbs

Per Roll: 87 Calories; 7g Fat; 4g Protein; .66g Carbohydrate; 0g Dietary Fiber; .66g Net Carbs

cleochatra · 01-06-2008, 10:48 AM

I wonder why fitday numbers were off by two calories per bun?

Still, it's pretty close!

I always admittedly tend to round my half carbs up to one, just because I have woobly blood sugar.

Thanks for the added information! You rock. {{{{Lisa and Linda Sue}}}

I love Mastercook Cleo! I picked it up at BestBuy for $15.00. My son is having me put all his favorite recipes together for him in a special cookbook.

cleochatra · 01-06-2008, 11:03 AM

It makes a cook book? Wooooo!!!

I have been looking at all of the cards and papers floating everywhere in my cookbook cabinet. LOL I haven't taken the time to make cards from all of them, so maybe I should just plug everything into a computer once and for all, especially if it calculates the nutritional values.

It has cookbooks preloaded and you can design your own including pics. My son really touched me when he told me he wanted to pass my recipes on to his own family someday when I finally kick the bucket.

cleochatra · 01-06-2008, 11:13 AM

Kewl!!! I'm asking for that for my birthday.

ItsToni · 01-06-2008, 01:28 PM

Ok - I have these rolls in the oven (for the first time) as we speak. What do most people do with them? Eat them plain or as sandwiches? I'm thinking more on the lines of cinnamon & splenda with cream cheese "icing". Would they taste like a cinnamon roll? I'm getting impatient with them baking...hurry up already!

ItsToni · 01-06-2008, 02:03 PM

um...ok...these are really weird. They are very "fluffy" like but crepe-like at the same time. Someone else told me they are better the 2nd day after keeping them in the fridge overnight. The pictures make them look chewy but they aren't? I don't know about these yet LOL
