Pinterest hands out healthy food recipes like they're hotcakes on a Sunday morning. One of its latest trends appeals to people trying to gluten-free, and it's called cloud bread.
Cloud bread is making waves in repins and likes, making a 73 percent increase in visibility on the Pinterest platform since last year. Despite its name, this dough isn't conceived from the heavens. The "bread" is a grain-free alternative (for all of yougluten-free people out there) and also boasts a low amount of carbohydrates. Some recipes even state that the bread has zero carbs. (Though we wouldn't exactly call ithealthiest.)
Thankfully, making the cloud lookalike is pretty simple. Unless you want to add herbs and spices, like rosemary, there are on average three to four ingredients, including eggs, cream cheese (which is why we wouldn't consider it to be the healthiest of recipes) and cream of tartar.
Since it's still the beginning of the year, people are still hanging on to healthy eating as a resolution. Nutritionist and transformational health coach Emily Littlefield says that based on her research, "Cloud bread can be part of a healthy diet because it satisfies your cravings for carbohydrates without guilt, sugar and wheat." She adds that it's the perfect alternative for people "on a weight loss plan or gluten-free and sugar-free diet."

I bought some gluten free bread at Whole Foods ... it was $5.99 for 10 slices and tasted like fukin cardboard xstop
Why would you buy that? :lol:
I'm asking about Cloud Bread that you make yourself. It's supposed to be fluffy and taste the way you prepare it, spice it, etc. I just care about the low carb part of it.
Looked at a couple of recipes and it said better overnite and must be stored in airtight containers or it will harden like merengue.
I didn't look at any reviews though.
When I go carb free, I take a fork and eat all the toppings from the pizza and leave the crust :lol:
When we go to a Mexican restaurant I order fajitas with no tortillas, rice or beans and just eat the shrimp, beef or chicken with the grilled veggies. You can eat carb free, you just have to be selective. :0008
I still don't get it with the gluten-free option (the gluten-free "fad" for any self-respecting health conscious person), I mean it's important for those with celiac disease to have gluten-free food, does it really work wonders with someone going on a healthy diet? :look:
Yes very true. Gluten is an inflammatory food. I read an interesting article about Tom Brady's diet. From what I know about inflammatory foods his anti inflammatory diet is very impressive.
The best gluten free bread I've tried is by Udi's it's pretty good but not great.
I eat alot of gluten free stuff. Udi's is good but Canyon Bakehouse makes my favorite gluten free bread. I order a pizza with gluten free crust at an Italian place here called Ciancio's that is super.
