Low Carb Bread
This makes one smallish loaf and should give you 10 portions. This lovely wholesome bread contains around 150 calories a slice but is very low in carbs so it will keep you feeling full for much longer than ordinary bread as well as being easier on the digestive system and loaded with cholesterol-reducing and heart-healthy oils and fibre. Perfect with soup for a complete meal as there’s a good amount of protein in this bread
