Bread- It's not that serious 🤪
Just had one of my favorite breakfasts a grilled cheese egg sammy 😍 I added some basil onto it as well and wow super good! Bread gets a bad rap, like people automatically assume THATS the demon making me gain weight!! And while yes it's not the best source of carbs, it's also not the worst. Let me hold your hand when I tell you this... You are allowed to eat bread!! 🤪👌 Now before you go eating a whole loaf in one sitting, of course this does come with some minor guildelines 🙏🙌 The type of bread matters, check your ingredients (if there's things in there you can't pronounce, maybe reconsider eating it 😅) what's the carb count per slice? (There's a lot of sneaky ones that are like 25 g PER slice, but you can totally find some that are 25-30g for 2 slices!) Do you have a gluten allergy? (Figure it out and go gluten free, your gut and body will thank you for it!) These are things that always go through my mind when I'm buying bread or anything that is processed with a nutritional label for that matter. 1. Ingredients first, the least amount the better 2. Check the macros so I can eat more for less 3. Check for lactose free, gluten free, or organic whenever possible. So yes you can eat bread, my rule of thumb is 2 slices a day mainly because I like to diversify my carb sources and not eat the same thing multiple times a day. This is the bread I usually buy, its from Costco, you get 3 loaves in a bag and 2 slices = 1 carb on my meal plan 👍 Are you a bread fan? Or have you been taught to fear it?
