Looking for low carb breads and bagels

I just came across Tumaro's wraps at the grocery store. Assorted flavored and very low in carbs & calories. Example- the Garden Veggie wraps see 60 calories each with just 2grams of fat, no cholesterol, & 12grams of carbs. Low sodium too. Delish!

I love the FlatOut wraps. I use them to make flat bread pizza, sandwiches, "pita"chips, etc. They're great. Carbzero also has a good bread.

I have to agree with the suggestions of the Flatout bread and the 45 calorie Sara Lee bread. I'm not low-carb myself, but I buy these products because I love them so much!

Flatout can also be used to make a totally kickass pizza too

Check out rye bread - 70 calories for a slice too long to fit in a toaster! Too, the best part is that rye produces less of an insulin spike as compared to both wheat and white. Love it!

I use mixes of almond and coconut flours to bake my own breads since wheat products do agree with me (and I enjoy a lower carb lifestyle).


Here's the recipe I use for bagels:

• 1 cup almond flour
• 2 Tbsp coconut flour
• 1/2 cup flax seed meal
• 1/4 cup protein powder (or quinoa flour)
• 2 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 eggs
• 2 Tbsp plain 0% Greek yogurt
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 3 Tbsp water
• 2-3 packets Splenda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

If you want toppings you can add poppy seeds, sesame seeds, onion or garlic flakes, etc. Just sprinkle them on top before you bake.

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Mix the dry ingredients together.
3. Mix the wet ingredients together in a separate bowl, then mix into the dry ingredients.
4. Mix everything well.
5. Use a lightly sprayed donut pan to make 6 bagels.
(I didn't have a donut pan the first time I made the recipe. I used 6 ramikens, popped them onto a baking sheet, and lined them with foil. I then sprayed with cooking spray, then put equal amounts of dough in each. I then wiggled my finger in the middle to spread the dough apart and made a hole.)
6. Bake for 20 minutes.
7. Cool completely and store refrigerated.

They tasted good as is, but taste REALLY great when you toast them. I like mine plain (no toppings) with a bit of peanut butter spread on them.

Using MFP's recipe function and with the protein powder I used, the nutrition info for each bagel is:
Calories – 237
Carbs – 9g
Fiber – 6g
Protein – 12g
Fat – 19g
***3g net carbs***

If you use the quinoa flour instead, the nutrition info per bagel is:
Calories – 241
Carbs – 11g
Fiber – 6g
Protein – 10g
Fat – 19g
***5g net carbs***


NOTE: If your ramikens are too large, the dough will spread a bit and your bagel will be too thin to easily slice.

I also eat low-carb. I have found some low-carb tortillas made by Mission. They are really good. Feel free to add me!

Sara Lee 45 cal bread..I realize that it was mentioned a few times but here's another vote for it! Lol. Also, I just recently discovered fiber one tortilla wraps. Very good!!
