French Meadow Bakery Sprouted Cinnamon Raisin Bagel Review

French Meadow Bakery Sprouted Cinnamon Raisin BagelFrench Meadow Bakery offers a line-up of organic, all-natural products, many of which are yeast-free, vegan, or Kosher Parve. After already trying the French Meadow Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread, I decided to check out the Cinnamon Raisin Bagel, which has more fiber and protein.

They suggest that you freeze their product to keep it fresh longer, which implies that you will need to toast them in order to enjoy them. When toasted, they obtain a crunchy exterior that encases the warm, chewy center. It's a delicious eating experience.

NUTRITION FACTS
Serving Size: 1 bagel (99 grams)
Calories: 270
Total Fat: 1.5 grams, 2%
Saturated Fat: 0%
Sodium: 270 mg, 11%
Carbohydrates: 50 grams
Fiber: 7 grams, 2%
Sugars: 11 gram
Protein: 15 grams

These bagels are a bit different in texture than your average bagel, having a dense nature and chewy texture, enhanced by the multitude of grains that go into each bagel. French Meadow Bakery Sprouted Cinnamon Raisin Bagel provides 290 calories, 1.5 grams of total fat, no saturated fat, 270 mg of sodium (11% of the daily value), 1.5g of fat (2% of the RDA), 7 grams of fiber (29% of the DV), 11 grams of sugars and 15 grams of protein. The ingredient list is short and to the point, which is always nice to see.

Thanks to the surplus of sprouted grains (wheat berries, barley, millet, lentils, soybeans and spelt berries), this bagel packs a welcomed protein punch. Five hearty bagels will set you back $4.49, which is a bit steep; but I could see paying that from time to time for a delicious and nutritious accompaniment to your meals.

Some other good choices are Olde Hearth Select Health Crunch Bagels, which weighs less (81 grams), but has 8 grams of fiber (34% of the daily value) in addition to 9 grams of protein. Also, Western Bagel: The Alternative Bagel and Kim's Light Bagels weigh in at only 54 grams, making them much smaller - and perhaps, that's about the size you need for a bagel, if it's part of breakfast with fruit and/ or yogurt

French Meadow Bakery Organic Fat Flush Tortillas

French Meadow Bakery Organic Fat Flush Tortillas

French Meadow Bakery offers a line-up of organic and all-natural products including yeast-free, vegan, sprouted grain and Kosher options in many forms including breads, tortillas, bagels and desserts. The sprouted grain French Meadow "Fat Flush Plan" Tortillas certainly caught my attention, and held it enough that I bought a pack (10 inch size).

NUTRITION FACTS
Serving Size: 1 tortilla (56 grams)
Calories: 100
Total Fat: 1.5 grams, 2%
Saturated Fat: 0%
Sodium: 210 mg, 9%
Carbohydrates: 35 grams
Fiber: 7 grams, 28%
Sugar: 2 grams
Protein: 11 grams

I actually didn't know that there was such as a thing as The Fat Flush Diet - but apparently there is (check out DietsinReview for more info). Okay... but I'm not on a diet plan; I am just interested in healthy food that tastes great. The texture of these tortillas is not soft and doughy like one might expect, but firm and pliable. The sprouted grains add an element of chew and texture, while also providing for a very filling product that will keep your tummy satisfied as you power through the rest of your day - depending on what fillings you pile into the tortilla of course. My latest creation involves tuna mixed with salsa, refried beans & some shredded lettuce. Protein & fiber power baby protein power!

Each 10 inch French Meadow Bakery Organic Whole Wheat Fat Flush Tortillas provides a satiating 100 calories, 1.5 grams of total fat, no saturated fat, 210 mg of sodium (9% of the DV), a whopping 7 grams of fiber (28% of the DV), 2 grams of sugar and 11 grams of protein. The organic ingredient list is incredibly short and lists, organic sprouted wheat berries, organic vital wheat gluten, organic malt extract, organic sprouted barley, organic sprouted millet, organic psyllium husks, sea salt, organic sprouted lentils, organic sprouted soybeans, organic sprouted spelt berries (wheat), guar gum.

While this might not taste like a typical soft, doughy "typical" tortilla (not as tasty as Mission Plus 96 % Fat Free Burrito Tortillas), but don't write it off. The ingredients list is so much better, and you can't beat the amount of fiber and protein! I might not purchase French Meadow Bakery "The Fat Flush Plan" Tortillas every single week; but they will certainly be back in my kitchen from time to time, to help keep things interesting. A pack with 6 large wraps costs about $3.50.
