Change Your Bread - Change Your Life

In the past few years bread has gotten a bad rap.

Too many carbs.

Too much gluten.

When I decided to go vegan and eliminate processed foods I did a lot of research to find a bread that would be healthy - because as a girl who grew up with toast for breakfast, cutting it out wasn't going to work...

What I found changed my life - and I believe it will change yours…

Now I don't think of bread as a "cheat" or a bad thing - I think of it as a superfood, something really healthy and nutritious that I am including in my day to get protein, vitamins and minerals.

Food for Life Sprouted Grain Bread is the perfect vegan bread.
Why?
-its a complete protein - 4 or 5 grams in each slice!
-tons of fibre, iron and easy to absorb minerals
-contains al 9 essential amino acids
-no GMO's
-no refined sugars
-no preservatives

They have a huge selection of different breads, including Gluten Free, that are all so well made and so healthy for you - my personal two favorites are:
Genesis Sprouted Whole Grain and Seed Bread - which has tons of super healthy seeds in it (perfect as avocado toast)



and Ezekial Flax Bread - added heart healthy Omega's (delicious with some almond butter)



You can find many of the Food For Life breads in most grocery stores in the freezer section. Because they contain no preservatives it is best to keep them in the freezer or the fridge. Learn more about the Food for Life brand and their products here

Sending you sunshine, health & happiness (and some healthy toast),
