But seriously, life is too short for crappy bread. I used to eat that 45 calorie stuff from Sara Lee. I thought it tasted good, but then I switched back to the good stuff, and realized how horrible it was. Though, the flat out wraps are decent. I'll concede to that. I'm a sucker for good bread... I am also guilty of the 45 calorie & delightful Sara Lee, but when compared to real bread, it's paper thin. My boyfriend doesn't mind it because he doesn't like very thick bread anyway and usually ends up removing part of his hamburger/sandwich bun or pizza crust. Not because of carbs, just out of habit I think. And then whatever part he's removed, I usually snatch from his plate and eat myself. Good crust should never go to waste.

Includes pumpkin seed, oats, red onion even a sweet one with cranberries. Top them with whatever you like, they have a reasonable protein count especially the pumpkin seed ones.

You don't need to cut it out entirely. Some days, though, you may want lower carb options. Macros and all.... If bread really did make you fat, I'd give up and be fat, because bread.

Of course, you need to like the idea of making bread, and you need a good knife to slice it thinly! Oh, and I guess you should like the bread you make. If you're into whole-grain breads, I'd suggest the Laurel's Kitchen Bread Book. Every recipe I've tried has turned out wonderfully; sometimes homemade whole-wheat bread is really heavy, but these recipes (the ones that are supposed to be, anyway) make soft, light, delicious bread. It's my favorite collection of bread recipes! http://www.amazon.com/Laurels-Kitchen-Bread-Book-Whole-Grain/dp/0812969677

This is what I meant! There is no need to cut out bread if you like it, just tweak it into your day :)

JanaCanada Joined 2012-09-17 Posts: 815	December 06, 2012 15:45 I loooove sammiches, so I loooove my Weight Watchers bread and Body Wise bread. Skinny slices, about 35-40 cals. per slice. Whole wheat, white, or 7 grain. Yum. I also like wraps, so lo-cal, low-fat tortillas work for me. Edited by JanaCanada On December 06, 2012 15:46

babsc01 Joined 2010-09-04 Posts: 31	December 06, 2012 15:46 Healthy Life makes a great high fiber bread, at only 35 calories per slice. Very tasty and sandwich-worthy. Or, you can try the "sandwich thins" made by Arnold, Nature's Own, Thomas, etc. The multi-grain versions are awesome, and you can also use them as hamburger buns.

You may also try coconut flour, if the flavour is agreeable. Mind you, I've made bread using the raw ingredients and it worked out really well for the bread and the chocolate cake. Oh, you have to steam them or bake them first, at least that is how I made mine.
