Bread Rolls


Mmmmmm fresh bread no matter if it comes from your oven or your local baker or perhaps your local bread artisan. :) Most people love the smell, touch, and taste of freshly baked bread.

HOWEVER, most people do not love a "bread roll" that has appeared uninvited and unwanted to their mid-section. Ever since our lovely Thanksgiving dinner I feel as though an unwanted guest has been hanging around and making my pants and shirts feel very uncomfortable. It is that awkward and uncomfortable feeling that every time you sit down you know people look over at you as that little flashing light goes blinking through their mind with the simple thought of..."Ooo she has put on some weight"

Ahhhh I hate that! It just doesn't work anymore to have a plate full of that much starch. Have you ever noticed that at most holiday dinners...your plate is 20% protein 70% carbohydrates and maybe...if you come from a "healthy" family you just might have 10% of your plate filled with vegetables.

p.s. This does not include desert which is an additional 100% portion to consider and it is most often sugar and carbs.

Anyway, now that I have ruined the joy of a full tummy stuffed with warm, soothing carbohydrates I will let you off to consider how to slice your bread roll down to size...well at least mine anyway.
