melbournegirl Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Okay, so this is a bit weird as I have been following whole9 for about a year and prior to that not been a regular bread eater for 20 years and only an occasional eater of gf breads the last 10 years or so. I am happy staying sugar, grain, dairy and legume free and my stomach thanks me for it every day. But while I don't miss other foods as I have found yummy more nutritious alternatives (like egg, sweet potato, fruit, coconut or nut puddings or an egg and almond meal pizza base or pie crust occasionally), I have suddenly become fixated on finding an equivalent to toast..... Not sure if it is the crunch I miss (I have potato chips sometimes for this reason) or the fun of putting toppings on like avocado, egg, yeast spread. Can anyone suggest some nutritious grain free alternatives that aren't sweet ?(I could probably make a coconut bread but I want a more savoury flavour...) I am open to all suggestions!

amberino21 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I've made "bread" with whipped egg whites, combined with a mixture of oat flour, herbs, spices, a couple of yolks and water (to make a sludgey paste..) Baked in a loaf tin, it sliced pretty good and was nice toasted. The same could work with coconut flour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 How about crispy or dehydrated, sliced carrots or zucchini? (And, should this go into a post-W30 discussion?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't notice what section it was in on my phone Following on from your idea, what about grated zucchini/sweet potato made in to patties, with egg perhaps, crispied up?

Roz Griffiths Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I've found a recipe for turkey toast!! 1lb ground turkey 1tsp mixed herbs Salt & pepper Oil for the pan (ghee, butter, goose fat) Heat oil over a low heat Combine the meat, herbs & seasoning Flatten the mixture onto parchment paper. You can either cut it into squares now or as it cooks. Cook around 10 mins, turning once Serve (ideally) warm, spread with ghee (or butter if post whole30!) From The Paleo Primer, by Keris Marsden & Matt Whitmore I haven't tried it yet, i'm not sure exactly how "toasty" it would be! I can't see any danger of SWYPO though, seeing as it's just MEAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melbournegirl Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 Great ideas everyone, I will experiment with veges and egg yolks and grilling meatloaf slices, hadn't thought of that at all? I cook with turkey mince quite a bit too so it will be nice to try a different approach! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amberino21 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Like Nico pointed out, "toast" isn't really in the spirit of a whole 30, and not something you should be trying to recreate or reproduce...posting about toast in the whole 30 section of the forum might suggest to others that its ok to have during their whole 30!
