Returning to Your Healthy, Low Carb Routine

There’s no bigger sign that summer is coming to an end than seeing stores full of back-to-school signs and supplies. We bet your entire summer was gloriously unscheduled. Deliciously full. Sweetly savored. While your kids got away with cookies for breakfast, you reunited with your favorite potato chips.

 

Are we right?


 

Friends, it’s time for re-entry into the Land of Better Food Choices and don’t worry—we got you! Now that summer is winding up and fall is cautiously approaching the launch pad, we have several tips and tricks to share to help you return to your healthy, low carb routine.

 

Here are our absolute favorite ideas for a fun, low carb, back-to-reality blast off:

As in there’s just one? That’s hilarious. But there IS the perfect bread to make all the greatest sandwiches. The absolute best part? No one would ever know—our gluten free breads are the real deal, made sans gluten and low in carbs. Now THAT is what’s perfect.

 

We’ve got five stellar sandwich ideas here, starring Carbonaut’s galactical, low carb, gluten free breads.
