Atkins Diet Bread Replacement Options: BroghiesBroghies Recipes | Kids Snacks & Meals

Broghies are a low-carb, no fat, no sugar and no preservative bread replacement.

Whether you’re in the induction phase of Akins or in maintenance, the science shows carbs should be limited in favor of healthy proteins. When you’re on induction or any phase of Atkins, sometimes you crave crackers, chips or bread- or even a sandwich made without using lettuce to wrap the meat. A good alternative to breads, without using all your daily carbs, is a Broghie.

So what’s a Broghie?

Broghies Nutritional Statement broghies-tostada-nutritional-statementOne Broghie’s wafer has 4.4g of carbs (0.02g fibre), are bigger than an average tea saucer (so they hold a lot of goodness), and they crunch. The Broghies Tostada variety only have 4 carbs each – so you don’t need to cheat or fall out of Ketosis on Atkins by eating them. While we are not affiliated with Atkins, a large number of our Broghies team have been on the diet. One of our team pretty much knows every item of food’s carb count (it’s amazing we’re still in business with the amount of Broghies she consumes while regaling us with the full carb counts.) There are no preservatives, so Broghies doesn’t leave an aftertaste. If you’re also worried about calories – there are only 20 per Broghie.

Our Broghies Pinterest has recipes and ideas for low carb diets. There are sumptuous dips, delicious desserts dazzled – not drizzled – with whip cream, pizzas, breakfast foods and more. Some of the recipes we created in our test kitchen, but most were created by our community.
