Do you like flatbread? Are you tight on time? If you answered yes, this post’s for you!
Disclosure: I was compensated to mention Flatout in this post. I only partner with brands that I myself use and would recommend to clients, so rest assured, it’s Shaw’s Simple Swap approved!
How someone could ever give up carbs boggles my mind. Being part Italian, fully American and 100% female, I without a doubt consume this food group on a daily basis… okay #realtalk, at every meal.
Rolls, crackers, cookies, potatoes… don’t mind if I do!
Though I do love a fresh slice of sourdough or a big soft pretzel, I am very strategic about the carbs I choose to consume. Why? Well, for starters, simple carbohydrates like crackers and white bread are made of refined flour that really have no bang for their buck, nutrition wise of course.
I tend to gravitate towards the 100% whole wheat or 100% whole grain varieties that pack at least 5 grams of fiber and 6 grams of protein per serving. Choosing items that meet this criteria help me feel fuller longer, which means I’m less likely to mindlessly munch. Okay, or if I do, at least it’s on a slice of this beauty (whole grain, of course!).
Now for those of you thinking… so… this chick eats cardboard, you are sadly mistaken. I’ve spent countless hours searching every nook and cranny of the market for the tastiest, most satisfying breads, wraps, pitas, bagels, etc. out there.
I’ve come to find one of my favorite brands is Flatout. Not only does it have a variety for you to choose from (literally over 10+ flavors), you can also rest easy knowing these Harvest Wheat Wraps have 6 grams of fiber but also packs 7 grams of protein!
Now, what are you waiting for? Dive into this flatbread with me and enjoy the no mess cleanup!

Carb lovers unite! How did I ever miss this?! Flatbread pizzas are one of my fave easy dinners. Can’t get better than tomato sauce, veggies, and cheese!

It’s probably because I wrote it before I realized social media existed and I needed to meet you awesome ladies! Enjoy!

LOVE Joseph’s lavash wraps, and the idea of eating a whole pizza all to myself without feeling like garbage. 🙂
Elizabeth Shaw says
OMG do you have them at your store?! I am super jealous. I used to buy them out when I lived in the midwest, but sadly, California does not stock them 🙁

Looks delicious! I like using Udi’s frozen GF pizza crusts when I make pizza at home, especially b/c they’re thin, and crunchy. Last night we had pizza from Sammy’s and I had their GF goat cheese pizza with spinach, mushrooms, and onions-have you tried it before? Super yummy! Have a fabulous weekend 🙂
Elizabeth Shaw says
What a great idea! WOW- that Sammy’s pizza sounds divine! I haven’t ever been there but there’s one right down the street from my house… hmmm.. is there a happy hour in our future? 🙂
