I get the sour cherry & chilli one every now & then. Doesn't affect my BG much either. Haven't tried the orange yet. I used to make a flaxseed loaf, but haven't made one in a while. Did like it but had it too often & got bored, though I like the idea of strawberries, cream & melted chocolate.

Today:

Brunch: bacon, sausage, scrambled egg and 2 slices toast
Dinner: cottage pie, raspberry yoghurt.

Blood sugars are crap . No idea why. Apart from the fact I have a v blood shot eye for no reason! Fun fun fun.

I quite like the bread at the moment Mark and I find it very easy to make with my limited kitchen skills. I am using it as I would use thing like potatoes and it has the added benefit of keeping me "regular" it would appear.. I also have used it as a substitute for bread with bacon and eggs. I find it quite filling I tried the Hovis low carb bread and to be honest I didn't really care for it.
Tried the flax breadwith ground almonds, whole walnuts and almond essence and that is quite nice as a base for the strawberries etc. trying to think what else I could use it for. Maybe some kind of low carb trifle or open sandwiches things like that .
I feel it could be quite versatile.
The Moser Roth I was sceptical off not being a lover of dark chocolate in the past but, I was pleasantly surprised not only at the taste, which I enjoyed, but also the minimal effect on my BG level. It is not really expensive either I think I paid £1.29 for it at ALDI and for that you get 5 bars/pack which is good value.
I need to find things to make eating more interesting. The flax bread has partly solved that. It also seems to keep a long time in an airtight container.
