Brooklyn BRED #❤️


So I accidentally came upon the most wonderfully delicious pizza crust, which can be used for sandwiches too; no really it says so right on the package. 

It has a pure and rich earthy taste that is simply tantalizing on the pallet thanks to the ancient grains.

It is made with 100% organic khorasan wheat aka kamut. Kamut has a natural sweet taste, has more protein than wheat, and is high in selenium. Selenium is a trace element with antioxidant benefits so it helps to protect the body from oxidative stress and infection, amongst other benefits. 

It is made "only with non-GMO ingredients," stated on the package. L❤️ve that!

I enjoy brushing it with olive oil, topping it with fresh mozzarella, fresh tomatoes, and arugula for an amazing burst of flavor  as well as health benefits. 

Important Note: It does have 280 mg sodium per serving so it is just below the 300 mg of sodium per serving normally recommended for someone who has hypertension. My advice, use toppings with little to no sodium. 

Serving size is 1/4 crust @ 25 grams carbohydrate, equals 1-1/2 servings of carbs per serving. 

Finally, I am particularly partial to the fact that it is "Brooklyn Bred," pun intended; because I happen to be from Brooklyn. 

I hope you have the opportunity to find it at your local grocer. If you do, let me know what you think.
