    If you go on to YouTube and find acre homestead she makes a no knead bread that is delicious as grilled cheeses and with eggs and bacon. I've not had any issues with her bread. Ive made it a dozen times. It's super easy to do. Just a few ingredients you probably already have.

    I suspect your on a low carb or ketogenic diet. There's lots of recipes online that make keto bread, I've used them once in a while and they work for what your complaining about. Most are 1-3 g's of carbs per slice.

    Try Ezekiel Bread. There are several different types and flavors. I especially like the cinnamon raisin. Flourless and very healthy. It will be in your grocer's frozen food section.

    I miss it too but found nordic wellness protein bread. With a dollop of cream cheese it really does the trick for me. Its rye bread with a lot of seeds so its not your traditional fluffy sliced bread so it may not be for everyone. Per 100 g (about two thick slices):
    13 grams fat
    7.5 grams carbs
    22 grams protein

    I don't eat a lot of bread, but if I want it I'm going to eat it in moderation that is. I would fail if I deprived myself like that; honestly have you thought about changing your relationship with food; it's not normal to want to eat an entire of loaf of bread. By the way I am not judging, because my wife told me that she tried Jenny Craig before and when they told her she could have a whole wheat roll they were only available in a bag at Krogers; wife said she was so hungry she ate the whole bag...lol

    Third party hug here for your wife. I totally get that.

    We shop at (USA) Lidl. You can buy individual rolls, and we get exactly what we need. No more, no less.

    I've never heard of Lidl; going to look it up; thanks! ............ Okay, unfortunately not in my area, but now I will at least look for individuals like that in other stores.

    Have you tried Carbonaut bread? Its just like bread. 150cal for 2 pieces, 18 grams of carbs but 16 grams in fibre so your net carb is only 2 grams.
    Also 13 grams of protein :)

    I just had it today for the first time. Satisfying sandwich!

    Although op has not returned, awesome ideas for including bread/breadlike foods shared here.

    On the flip side though, if a bread is a real trigger food, sometimes a person just needs to release it and walk away, at least until it can be moderated.

    Part of releasing things (which can induce grieving for the food), is to turn forward and explore other foods/recipes that are not a trigger food. The potatoes mentioned by op are a good example.

    Another idea; Do you have an artisan bakery nearby? Buy a small loaf of bread. It'll likely be rather expensive. Only buy bread there, support a local business. For me, buying something expensive and special means I automatically eat less of eat and make every bit of it special. Doesn't need to work for everyone of course, but it does for me. that's how I eat chocolate and quite a few other things.

    I’ve made a Dutch Baby the past few mornings. Better than a donut or toast, and the texture is awesome. (I’m a texture eater )

    I used the NYT recipe.

    Easy subs:

    use less butter- I used 3 tbsp instead of 4, and will try 2 next time.

    Substitute margarine for butter to cut that in half yet again

    Skim milk

    Sucralose crystals worked perfectly

    Will try experimenting with egg whites next time.

    Split between 2 people, very reasonable calories.

    Satisfies that bread/ flaky light pastry craving.

    I have been eating Aunt Millie's Live Carb bread. The slices are low in calories and carbs. They also make a variety of other breads such as English muffins, bagels and various kinds of breads. I really like them. Give them a try. Good Luck
