Ingredients
*Bob's Red Mill Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal, 6 Tbsp. or about 6 oz.Heavy Whipping Cream, 1 tbspCinnamon, ground, 1 tsp*Syrup, Sugarfree, Walden Farms (1/4 cup)*Truvia, 1 packetWater, tap, 1/2 cupsalt & pepper to taste
Directions
Put all ingredients into microwaveable bowl, cover, and cook for 2 minutes. (Use less water if you like your hot cereal very thick - this will make a fairly thin cereal) I usually add a tiny dash of salt and pepper as well, for taste.

You can make infinite variations on this - try 1-2 tablespoons SF Walden Farms Marshmallow fluff instead of the truvia, and 1 tablespoon SF peanut butter instead of the whipped cream for a Fluffernutter cereal! Yum.

    Hi! This looks really good! I do some diabetes education and management on the side, so I recommend using Stevia, rather than Truvia in this recipe. Truvia is actually a lesser quality with extra chemicals we really don't need & should avoid. Stevia is better even tho an acquired taste. - 3/16/15

    I made a variation using organic crunchy almond butter instead of the syrup, used a little less water so that it would not get gelatinous (don't like the mouth-feel lol), and topped it with chocolate soy milk. Was wonderful and very healthy. Thank you for sharing. - 9/1/12

    I replace butter for cream and right before serving, walnut or pecans. I have also added berries then as well. It is hardy and filling. Perfect cold weather breakfast. - 3/11/11
