This is based on the Australian Soylent recipe, but has been modified to be much lower in carbs, targeting around 1600 Cal. It could be used as a complete meal replacement, as it meets the requirements of the "U.S. government DRI, male 19-50, 1500 calories, low carb" profile.
I've replaced the Flaxseed with a mix (by Linwoods) of flaxseed, almond, brazil and walnuts. This affords a much higher fat content, without needing to add oil to the recipe. This product is definately more expensive than the alternatives, and can be replaced with Flaxseed and another kind of nut meal (brazil and/or walnut would probably be best).
I've also replaced the cane sugar with Coconut sugar, which is much lower in GI (around 35) and also affords us additional nutrients that cane sugar does not.
I haven't tested this yet, I'll be getting all the ingredients shortly. This is also my first attempt at Soylent, so go easy on me :)
