  • Are ANY of the Atkins Products good?

    I hate to whine but geeze, I've been trying to find at least one good product and after quite a few $$$ am about to give up. After trying the muffin mixes, pancake/waffle mix, BBQ sauce, etc., the only one I've enjoyed is the ketchup (then again, I'm a ketchup fiend).

    Has anyone found a product that they love?

    Yup, the Banana Nut Muffin mix. Delicious Also the syrups are ok in shakes, and I do use some of the bake mix for breading (with pork rinds) and things like that. The bake mix can be disgusting in the wrong recipe, but there are quite a few recipes where it seems to work - for me. And I agree with you - the pancake mix is bleh.

      You can make the pancake mix work if you add flax meal and/or ground almonds. Ok maybe it's not traditional flapjacks but it's better than that protein taste.

        So far I like

        Atkins Morning Start cereal banana nut crunch- I mix cream and water together to use instead of milk 6 carbs. (Once or twice a week a nice break from eggs)

        I use my blender to grind up almonds and add to Atkins Pancake mix. I also use whipped cream with a dash of slenda to top. It is yummy Also natural peanut butter on top is yummy. My hubby likes to roll the panckes adds whipped topping and berries.

        The Atkins Taco chips are good. I add cheddar cheese and Salsa on the top. It tastes so good you feel like you could be cheating!

        Atkins banana nut muffin mix is good right out of the oven. Since my kids love them as well (rats) they must taste good to non Atkins eatters as well.

        Atkins Eldulge Ice Cream is too yummy. I keep it in the frig for a special occassional treat. You know those times that you would break- it helps to have a better if not perfect treat available.

        Atkins Brownie mix is so good my kids made it and ate all of it> I didn't get one bite. And at $%.99 for the mix I was not happy. It sat right next to the regular brownie mix I can't have- They liked the diet one- go figure.

        I use Atkins Syrup, Steak Sauce, Teriyaki sauces as well

        Recipes from this board that are good
        Ziplock icecream- if you can find the time to make it and keep it away from your kids.

        Quiche


        I also bought a cook book on Low Carb cooking.

        I went to GNC and bought Vanilla Whey Protein Powder and Soy Porotein Powder. They seem to be used in many low carb recepies.

        My favorite treat is the Atkins Endulge Mint Crisp bar. ( I have them only as a last resort -okay once a week)


        Hope this helps. I do hate the Keto low carb Pasta's ansdthe new Atkins Pasta. However my 15 year old loved the Atkins Pasta. I guess I will keep a box around for when I have guests.
