Up in the clouds!

  I cook for people following a lot of different diets but this week was a first for me.  I needed to cook low (or no) carb meals.  One of the things that seems to be lacking in this diet is a way to make sandwiches and for a lot of folks, sandwiches are a mainstay.   Recently, I heard about a "no carb" bread or perhaps a bread substitute.  Cloud Bread is a dream come true for followers of this type diet. They are a lot like meringues..those nice fluffy yet crispy cookies that Elizabeth and I made at Christmastime.  Basically, the only difference I can see, is that Cloud Bread is placed in a zip type baggie and allowed to become soft.  The taste test proved promising.  

  The whole deal of making a no carb bread has me thinking of how I can alter the main recipe to become something totally different and yet keep to the diet.  Perhaps some herbs or spices might add a bit of pizzazz to the "bread".  This will be something to play with once I get back to the Bayou.  My son and daughter-in-law did make a good observation.  Cloud Bread is also gluten free!  For anyone interested in making this easy bread substitute, recipes abound and are quite simple.  You should try it!
