Breakfast Breads

A lot of people are mislead about what breads are the best to purchase to support your fit lifestyle.

Look for 100% whole wheat.  If it says "wheat" it can be enriched.

Multigrain isn't always the best choice.  You want to get something high in fiber.

English muffins (again 100% w.w.) not bagels.  Bagels are so dense you can get them and eat half of one.  Kroger English muffins are usually priced $1 for 6.


You're looking at 90 calories difference and half the carbs.  
This is a good lesson; the bagels have more protein and fiber however those do not outweigh the calorie and carbohydrate difference.

There are these new bagels I just picked up at Kroger yesterday.  They were buy one get one free for $3.00.  They are half bagels, basically the texture of a bagel but the size of an English muffin.  I had one for breakfast with my Greek yogurt and they were really good for only 110 calories.

Donuts are a no, glazed, filled and creme are usually words to steer clear of.  Eat healthy, my friends, and set the pace for a day with healthy fuel for your body!
