Since reading about these on here and discovering that they do not have a drastic affect on my BG readings they have become a bit of a staple for me if im in need of a piece of bread. This afternoon i ran out so had a single slice of tesco store baked wholemeal bread with a bit of cheddar. Bg reading 1 hour later has risen from 6.6 to a whopping 9.7 . No more wholemeal bread for me and well done Lidl.
 
I agree Dai - having one myself for tea tonight with some nice boiled ham :D
 
I have one most days. Barely affects my BS. Unlike the pumpernickel bread I had today which I will not be having again.😳
 
Question about the lidl protein rolls. How long do they stay fresh for? And, can you freeze them?
Ok, I know, that's 2 questions!
 
I wouldn't keep them more than a couple of days. They freeze very well though.
 
They are really nice. Our Lidl sells out of them really quick. I buy as many as I can.
 
Might pop down and get one Sunday to try for lunch on Monday then.
 
I bought 2 dozen last time I went to Lisl. Not got a local one so need to travel. The do freeze very well.:D
 
Well what can I say. They are rather yummy. Had one today for lunch with chicken in. Before lunch my BG was 8.2, 2 hours after a lunch of the chicken roll (almost a full chicken breast), an apple and 2 satsumas my BG levels was 7.2!

Result! 🙂
 
Must try them. How many carbs in each roll?
 
11g ! and they are big!!
 
I had one today with tuna & cucumber.🙂
 
Hmm, there's a Lidl not 10 miles from me. Definitely going to go and try these, although I am rather happy with my Ultimate Keto buns at the moment.
 
They're easy to spot. Dark, seedy & triangular. And only 29p each.🙂
 
They are quite solid & chewy. I have a crown that has come loose & these may be the culprit.😱 I do like them though. But will definately try one warmed up.
 
Not tried it warmed up yet. Gonna get more at the weekend. I have some home made soup in the freezer. Think that would go rather nicely.
 
I got some today. Tomorrow lunch with mary berry quick tomsto soup. Yum yum
