Low Carb Bread Suggestion
 

Hello! I usually post over at the Alternachicks threads, but I am a low carb eater with info to share!

I've been low carbing since the summer - have lost about 20 lbs - 80 to go - with my clothes feeling loser than the actual loss would show on the scale. Has that ever happened to you?

Anyway, about a month ago, I decided I was getting burned out on meat on lettuce - so I tried several low carb bread recipes and wasn't crazy about any of them - most turned out as bricks or bouncing balls - is it me or is most LC bread really bouncy?

So anyway, then I started trying the pre-baked breads - not crazy about them either - but in the mail on Friday I received something that can pass the test and I am very picky - Todd's Organic rolls - 1 carb.

I like them because they're more crust than bread - so they're less spongy, more crunchy - if you're the kind of person who always like the crust better than the bread itself - this stuff is great. If you liked the insides of the bread - this may not work for you.

The downside is the shipping - $16 for 6 pkgs :(

I am in no way affiliated with the company - just wanted to share my own situation -

the website is toddsorganicbreads.com


Good Luck! Terri

oh! before I create any confusion.....let me clarify the carb count

1 effective carb is for half a roll -


one roll ( hamburger sized roll) is 140 calories

8 fat grams
8 carb grams
6 fiber grams
30 grams protein

= net 2 carbs

30 protein - served with a burger would probably meet my daily requirement for protein

Thanks, Terri, BUT $16 for shipping! Imagine what it must be to Canada!

terrii. thanks for the info. i tried the url and the browser couldn't find it.. could you tell us what the bread is made of??? with 30 grams of protein, that's quite a load!! and just right for us WLS folks...

please please please please!!!!

I typed the address in and got a dead end, did a google search and it popped up with the very same address. Very strange! This stuff looks yummy! Thanks for the tip.

I copied this from the address bar. Hope it works. http://www.toddsorganicbread.com/store.asp

oh good - glad you found it! The ingredients are listed - it does have a heavy grain taste, but it is the first LC bread I can swallow without feeling ill from the smell or texture


This would be ideal if you had a neighbor who is low carbing so you could split the shipping costs. Otherwise.....hmmm



Side note: that Todd sure is a cutie

PS - what is WLS?


Terri

:lol:

WLS is Weight Loss Surgery, Terri. Jiff and Debkay have had this done and have to be really careful to get enough protein.

WOW!!!!
 

thanks, sherrie, for posting the link [it worked!!!] and even more thanks to terri...

debk: we GOTTA try this stuff!! 10 g soy protein, low carbs, whole grain which means FIBER

i won't order until after the holidays, though. those atkins folks are coming for the season.. and we all know what THAT means!!!!

oh ok - great! glad to help. I had a Todd roll this AM with muenster cheese.


Tip: It's much better toasted :)



I am sure this is a much discussed topic here - but when I need to get more protein - I make those yummy Keto shakes


Terri!

BUMPING for mandapanda and her dad...

and by the way, as the time gets closer for the chick meet, if any of you canadian chickies want me to order a stash [with the lower shipping costs] that you can take back with you, let me know!!!!

hmmm. maybe i'll place an order soon and see what it's like. peachie.. ya want some?
