Bread
Bread is a funny thing. It is one of the very few foods that I know does not agree with me that I still crave regularly, I try my very best to avoid it, but some meals just feel incomplete without it. Burgers are one of those meals. I love a salad bun, but sometimes I want a burger bun.

Time to experiment
I’ve experimented with different recipes and gluten-free, grain-free flours but never felt satisfied with the end result. Until now. These little ‘bread’ rounds are made from egg and cream cheese, they are amazing. Don’t get me wrong they are not ‘like’ bread, they are nothing like bread, they are better than bread.
It’s bread Jim but not as we know it
Sorry, my geek was showing again. Now with the Star Trek reference out of the way lets get back to the bread. They might look like a squished meringue, but I can assure you they are not. They can stand up to a burger and make a great sandwich option. They don’t break apart when you pick them up or crumble while you eat them. The structural integrity of these little bread rounds is impressive. They have stood up to melted cheese, sauerkraut and even sliced tomatoes. If you are looking for an easy replacement for a slice of bread, give these bad boys a go.
