I often squeeze in time to bake fresh loaf of whole wheat bread at home . But these days , I have gone extremely busy with too many work assignments and running short of time. Hence brought freshly baked whole wheat bread from stores . I'm not at all a bread lover but my lil boy is different , so at least once in a week , either I bake bread or get it from stores. Every time , it happens so that 1 loaf of bread lasts for 2-3 days. First day it's going to be either Bread Egg Toast or Cheese Sandwiches, followed by Bread Upma or Masala Bread Toast for next day evening snack.

Try using Whole Wheat Bread for any of your bread based recipes . Please cutdown refined flours from your diet as much as possible. Also cultivate clean eating habits , bread is full of carbohydrates , just add in more veggies, eggs ,paneer , cheese and prepare a balanced food.

Few bread recipes on blog are : Classic French Toast , Veg Sandwiches , Avocado Toast ,Cheese Bell Pepper Toast , Savoury Bread Toast and Besan Bread Toast
