Oat Cakes - Low Glycemic Index (GI) Recipe (English and Spanish)

I have been eating low GI foods for a while.  I just feel that our bodies do not need all those refined sugars and flours.  They might be tasty, but they do a lot of damtage to our bodies.  But I will not get into this. Here is the recipe my friend Z. so generously gave me.

Ingredients - Ingredientes

• 1/4 c ground Oat flakes (you can grind them in the blender) - 1/4 taza de Avena molida
• 1/4 c cottage cheese - 1/4 taza de queso cottage, cuajada o ricotta
• 1/4 c egg beaters or egg whites - 1/4 taza de claras de huevo o producto sustituto de huevo liquido

Optional - Opcionales

• 1 TBS Flax Seed - 1 Cucharada de semillas de lino o linasa
• 1 TBS Gogi Berries - 1 Cucharada de bayas de goji
• 1 Splenda bag - 1 sobre de splenda o edulcorante
• few drops of olive oil - unas gotas de aceite de oliva

Preparation - Preparación

Put the oatmeal, egg, cheese and splenda bag in a bowl and mix them with a whisk
Colocar la avena, el huevo, el queso y la bolsa de splenda en un recipiente y batir con un batidor de mano

You will have a thick batter.  Add the optionals: flax seeds, goji berries and mix together
Quedará una mezcla pastosa y densa.  Agregar los ingredientes opcionales: semillas de lino o linasa y bayas de goji

Put a little bit of olive oil in a non stick pan and spread it with a paper towel
Colocar las gotas de aceite de oliva en un Sartén antiadherente y esparcirla con papel de cocina

Pour the batter into the pan and spread it carefully.  Remember, it is a thick batter

Colocar la mezcla en la sartén y esparcirla con cuidado.  Recuerda que es una mezcla gruesa

This is how it looks

Asi queda

You can put sugar free maple sirope on it and enjoy your low GI breakfast!
