Are there any GOOD gluten free whole grain bread/wraps?

Options
Gluten unfortunately seems to cause IBS symptoms in me and so I've successfully avoided it (for the most part) for a couple of years now. I'm missing the convenience of a wrap or a sandwich at times. Do any of you gluten free mfp'ers have a favorite brand of bread/wrap/english muffin/etc that you like? I'm looking for whole grain as I would rather it have nutrients as well.
Thanks

    I think Udis bread is pretty decent. They also have whole grain breads. I actually don't eat much GF bread because it's so expensive. Sometimes I make my own. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease 2 years ago, by the way.

    Sadly, I make my own. I found the bought kind expensive & tasteless. Would love to find one though.

    Rudi's is the only brand I've found with texture like real bread. Love it.

    I use Van's gluten free waffles as sandwich bread :] They sell them at Publix. Udi's is the best bread but eh.

    and corn tortillas are pretty good if you zap them in the microwave first.

    La Tortilla Factory has a Teff and Millet whole grain wrap that's actually pretty good. You need to zap it for about 30-45 seconds before you try to roll it up but it's great for cheese steaks and sandwich wraps. :)

    You can make your own pretty cheap and tastes pretty good too, check my blog or the recipe forum for recipes.

    Udi's Millet and Chia, LaTortilla Factory wraps, and if you can get them Sonoma has a good Gluten free wrap, Rudi's has good bagels, and English muffins from a couple of companies are pretty good. Kinnikinick breads are pretty tasty toasted but not a lot of fiber in them. Gluten free here for 12 years. I tend to make something when I really want some bread, I eat very little commercial breads as they tend to have more sodium than I want to expend on a very salt restrictive diet :)

    Udi's bread is good; the bagels don't actually taste like bagels but they're edible. There is also a focaccia mix by Chebe that's really good.

    The Trader Joe's brown rice tortillas are awesome. I use them mostly for little (white, margherita) pizzas, or cut them up, toast them in the toaster oven, and dip them in hummus.

    I don't really bother with pasta.

    Rudi's. If the texture isn't to your liking, try toasting the bread. I like it better this way.

    Haven't tried making wraps but have had great success with Pamela's gluten-free bread mix, for both sandwich bread and rolls. If you try it make sure you get the bread mix not the general baking mix - big difference. In my experience Bob's Red Mill bread mixes taste pretty good (I especially like their Hearty Whole Grain gluten-free mix) but they crumble too much when cut into reasonable slices. Heavy on calories too. But they make great rolls. I didn't like any of the store bought options so learned to make my own.

    Here's a pic of a Pamela's roll I made, serving up a bison burger for my lunch today -

    I like to use rice paper - buy it in bulk at the asian supermarkets (not frozen but dried). Simply soaks in a bowl of water for a minute then you can put in your choice of filling and roll up like a spring roll. No need to cook. Delicious!
