Low Carb Bread

I think bread is the number one thing I miss being on a low carb diet. I used to eat half a loaf in one sitting. My favorite was fresh sourdough, with Kalamata olives baked in, lightly warmed with gobs of butter. Ahhh, I can taste it just thinking about it. Of course, those days are over for me, but I have found a great low-carb bread for toasting and sandwiches: Oroweat Whole Wheat (you can find it at most grocers). It also comes in multigrain. I've always liked to lightly-toast my bread for sandwiches, and this is the only low carb bread that I've tried that maintains its consistency when toasted. My boyfriend who isn't on a low-carb diet actually prefers it to regular bread because it's "lighter." My only complaint is the price: it's usually about $3.50 a loaf when other similar high carb breads are about $2.50 a loaf. But I'm still willing to pay for it because it stands out among the rest.
