Carbs and protein make a happy couple with this double protein bread. If you don't live close to a Trader Joes or a Whole foods (which offer some really great bread options) try Brownberry's Double Protein bread. This is the best wheat-containing option I have found at Giant Eagle / Walmart / Marcs. Brownberry carries a few good breads, but as always, check your nutrition label to see what the ingredients are.

A few reasons I love this bread
-First ingredient is whole wheat flour, followed by water.
-This has less sugars than I think every bread you'll find at Giant Eagle, Walmart or Marcs.
-7 grams of protein a SLICE?! Believe it! (To determine your daily protein intake, click
here.)
-Doesn't get its protein from soy.
-It's only $2.78
Oh yeah, and it's soft enough for a pb&j (so B has approved it!)
My favorite way to eat this bread is as french toast --- Click
