Nature’s Own Light Honey Wheat Bread

[ 5 ] 02/07/2009 | Christy

Do you like sandwiches? I do. As a mom, it seems like at least one meal a day (and sometimes 2) includes a sandwich. Grilled cheese, peanut butter & jelly (no, not for me, silly!), lunchmeat, BLT (with turkey bacon), etc. Sandwiches can be anything you want them to be. But bread’s not so good for you, right? I mean, even if you get whole grain, and let’s face it, most of the time the whole grain option isn’t too tasty, you’re still spending at least 2-4 points for 2 measly slices. Word!

So when I calculated the points for Nature’s Own Light Honey Wheat (and Whole Wheat & Sourdough) at the grocery store, I was astounded that 2 slices of bread could equal 1 point. EUREKA! Two slices equal 80 calories, 1 gram of fat, 5 grams of fiber, 5 grams of protein (bonus!!), and 0 mg cholesterol. Wow. And the best part? It’s damn tasty and soft. Not all gross and dried out!

So next time you’re in the store, look for it and grab a loaf. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

p.s. Did you see the two giveaways we have going on right now? Here and here!

I love that bread! That is what I use, as I didn’t really care for the Weight Watchers bread! :)

I love sandwiches too. My mom used to force them on me until I liked them. Now I just eat them for fun.
