Think toast is boring?  Think again!  I will show you two healthy and outrageously delicious ways to eat your toast.

The Toast with The Most,make your toast delicious with Dave's Killer Bread and Lauren Kelly Nutrition

Disclaimer: I was compensated by Dave’s Killer Bread to create these recipes. However, like always, the opinions are entirely my own. Promise ๐Ÿ™‚

There are so many breads in the grocery store today, but many of them are loaded with unnecessary preservatives and artificial junk that you don’t even know if a healthy option is out there.  It’s frustrating and I get overwhelmed just trying to read all the labels and ingredients.  Not any more.  I am SO excited to have found Dave’s Killer Bread! Finally, a healthy option.

The Toast with The Most,make your toast delicious with Dave's Killer Bread and Lauren Kelly NutritionDave’s Killer Breads are packed with of Omega-3s and fiber from seeds and organic ingredients such as amaranth, barley, spelt, blue cornmeal, quinoa and pumpkin seeds, Thin-Sliced Dave’s Killer Bread is a great option for a snack-sized treat or those counting calories.  They are all 100% organic and Non-GMO Project Verified, vegan and loaded with protein.  I’m in heaven.

When I grew up, we had toast with our eggs… white bread (gasp!) and butter.  That’s it.  Maybe a little grape jelly if we were feeling crazy.  But that’s how I remember toast.  Until now…

Check out all of those seeds! I am so in love with this bread.  This toast is a perfect snack, lunch or breakfast (no judgement here…there ARE pears in there!)  It’s simple to make, healthy and crazy delicious.  I know someone who actually licked the pesto bowl clean!  Weird right?  Ok, it was me.

I even thought these would make really great appetizers if you cut them in quarters too.  Did I mention how much I loved that pesto?  And look at those seeds!

I used Dave’s Powerseed Bread for this toast.  Each slice has only 60 calories and 280 mg omega-3-fatty acids (the good fats).

Let’s be honest, all toast should have melted chocolate over it.  And the almond butter adds protein and you know how healthy those chia seeds are!

    I haven’t seen Dave’s Killer bread. I’ll have to look for it. I love whole wheat bread but it is usually way too sweet for me. I’m going to hunt down this bread and try it.
