Livlife Bread

[douglas99]

My mum who is iabetic has found that most of the food aimed at Diabetics is a lot pricier than normal food. She complains quite rightly about the cost but says the choice is pay up or don't have something she really loves like bread a few times a week.
I know it is a shame the cost is o high at Waitrose now but they do often have things on offer, so I'm hoping it will be more reasonable soon.

I probably ate a loaf a day before I was diagnosed, so I reckon now I eat a loaf a fortnight, I'm spending a lot less, and they're making less overall out of me.
So fair play, I want it, they make it for me, it'll never be a money spinner for them though the limited amount we all eat.

Brilliant news

A homemade loaf with less carbs than Livlife bread and it's gluten free without additives - http://lowcarbhealthyfat.com/2013/10/15 ... -lchf-way/ app 10 g carbohydrates per loaf and if you choose poppy seeds or skip the seeds it's even less.

The recipe not dissimilar to IanD's recipe which ive made a few times.. like that bread its going to be coconut cakey style which is issue with savoury.. also prefer flax to add the fibre

I do miss a less than 20% max carb crispbread though..

 

[modesty007]

Why not try this (gluten free) spread it less thinly and you got a crisp bread, as thinly as possible a nice cracker - http://lowcarbhealthyfat.com/2013/09/29 ... rispbread/

I had heard good things about Birgitta Höglund but unsure if she has a site with most of her recipes?

I suppose I am hoping for too much then if not in Newcastle they won't have it in their store in Gibraltar we were driving over from Spain tomorrow so will have a look.

perhaps they are trial selling it to see how it goes, hopefully they will sell lots and itll be more wide spread, it gives me hope in general with the "half the Carbs" plastered on it that maybe they are thinking about this being worth producing

Glad it's in Morrison's, I'll have to go down and take a look.

I bought it in Morissons today. Im in London so it might be easier. it cost £1.33 (in Waitrose 1.99)

 

[diadeb]

That's great news ewelina, I have no Waitrose near to me so can't wait for Morrison's to stock it, thanks for the tip
