Read More »For many people, wheat bread is a staple food. However, the majority of breads sold today are made from refined wheat, which has been stripped of most fiber and nutrients. It may also cause a big spike in blood sugar and lead to increased calorie intake ( 1 , 2 , 3 ). Many brands claim to be made from “whole” wheat, but still contain mostly pulverized grains. There are also many people who are intolerant to gluten, a protein in wheat. This includes people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity ( 4 , 5 ). Wheat is also high in short-chain carbs called FODMAPs, which cause digestive distress in many people. Although many people can still eat bread without problems, there are others who do best avoiding it. Fortunately, convenient and healthy alternatives to bread are becoming more readily available. Here are 10 easy and delicious ways to replace conventional wheat bread: 1. Oopsie Bread Oopsie bread is one of the simplest and most popular low-carb breads. It can be made from only eggs, cream cheese and salt, although some recipes add more ingredients. Oopsie bread is widely used as a replacement for wheat bread, and is delicious as a bun for burgers or served with toppings. It is easy to make, contains only a few ingredients and tastes delicious. You can find photos and a recipe for Oopsie bread here. 2. Ezekiel Bread Ezekiel bread is one of the healthiest breads available. It is made with several types of sprouted grains and legumes, including wheat, millet, barley, spelt, soybeans and lentils. The grains are allowed to sprout before processing, so they contain lower amounts of harmful antinutrients. This makes the bread much more nutritious and easily digestible. Ezekiel bread also contains no added sugar. However, if you are sensitive to gluten, then Ezekiel bread is not the right option for you. You may be able to buy Ezekiel bread at some bakeries, or you can make it yourself. There are some tips on making your own Ezekiel bread here. 3. Corn Tortillas Tortillas can be made with either wheat or corn. Corn tortillas are gluten-free but high in fiber, making them a great option for people who are sensitive to gluten. You can use corn tortillas in sandwiches, wraps, burgers, pizzas or simply with toppings like butter and cheese. It is very easy to make corn tortillas yourself, since they contain only two ingredients: water and a Mexican flour called Masa Harina. You can find a recipe here.

Rye bread causes a lower rise in blood sugar than wheat bread. However, it also has a stronger, more unique flavor that may be an acquired taste ( 6 ). Some rye breads are made with a mixture of rye and wheat, so they are a little lighter and have a mild, sweet flavor. Keep in mind that rye bread contains some gluten, so it is not an option on a gluten-free diet. You can find rye bread at most supermarkets and bakeries. It is also relatively easy to make yourself. Here are several recipes to try. 5. Lettuce and Leafy Greens Big-leafed greens like lettuce or romaine lettuce are great substitutions for bread or wraps. You can fill these greens with toppings like meat or veggies. The leaf can also be used as a wrap, to hold everything together.

The cauliflower is then mixed with egg, cheese and spices before it is flattened and baked. Cauliflower bread or crust tastes great and is nutritious, as well as low in carbs. It is a delicious alternative to regular bread. Combined with toppings of your choosing, this may become one of your favorites. You can find a recipe here. 9. Eggs Eggs are among the most nutritious foods you can eat. They can be a protein-rich substitute for bread, and can be used in a variety of foods. When eating burgers, fried eggs can replace the bun. Here are some creative ideas on how to prepare eggs. 10. Sourdough Bread Sourdough bread is made from fermented grains. The fermentation process reduces the antinutrients in the grains, which increases the availability of nutrients ( 7 , 8 , 9 ). This makes sourdough bread more easily digestible and more nutritious than regular bread. However, it tastes a little more sour than regular bread since it contains lactic acid. You can make sourdough bread yourself in a few easy steps, but you’ll need to make a starter culture to work with. You can find a recipe here. Keep in mind that sourdough bread made with gluten-containing grains still contains gluten.
