Nice website too, direct link here

A growing number of people have given up bread for a good reason. If you are unable to bake it yourself, then your options to eat a loaf of heathy bread are very limited.
The good news is that there are ways to enjoy and even enhance your favorite burgers or wraps without having to worry about finding bread that does not harm your body.
You will want to save the ideas suggested below because once you try them, you are going to forget all about your packaged bread obsession-you will simply “retire” it! After tasting these, they just might occupy your plate more often than you have originally planned. Don’t complain we didn’t warn you about it!
1. Cucumber subs

Cucumber is indispensable for hydrating and nourishing your body in the summer. When you combine it with your favorite sour cream and deli in the middle, what you get is nothing short of an amazing breadless meal for your breakfast, lunch or supper.
2. Barbecue salmon- lettuce wraps

This is another great snack for you. Salmon is packed with omega-3 fatty acids and protein. You chop your grilled or baked salmon fillets, wrap them up in some freshly-picked lettuce, then drizzle them with your favorite seasoning  and… that’s all to it!
3. Red bell pepper sandwich
400.1

Red and green bell peppers are high in para-coumaric acid, vitamin B6 and magnesium. Red peppers contain almost 300% of your daily vitamin C intake! Besides being a powerful antioxidant, vitamin C is also needed for the proper absorption of iron. If you are iron deficient, try combining red peppers with your iron source for maximum absorption. They also support healthy night vision, which makes them an excellent substitute for stale and fattening buns!
4. Paleo sweet potato buns
ova 4Sweet potatoes are naturally sweet-tasting, but their natural sugars are slowly released into the bloodstream, helping to ensure a balanced and regular source of energy, without the blood sugar spikes linked to fatigue and weight gain. If you combine them with some berry filling, you will get a bun that is sweet and delicious for a change.
5. Grilled eggplant sandwich
