Bread made without flour? Out of sprouted grains, legumes and seeds? This couldn’t possibly taste good, could it?
Based loosely on a Biblical recipe culled from the Book of Ezekiel, Food For Life (the company that makes Ezekiel bread) has introduced a whole line of sprouted grain foods that run the gamut from Cereal to bread to pasta and even tortillas.
Regardless of how you feel about the scriptural roots of these foods, the folks who make Ezekiel 4:9 bread and cereal are on to something. At the end of the day, you could be a pagan and still benefit from this bread.
While it seems inconceivable that you could make a crunchy cereal or fluffy, light loaf of bread out of sprouted grains and beans, Food for Life has figured out how to do it!
And even better, they’ve done it without sacrificing nutrition, flavor or using preservatives or sweeteners like high fructose corn syrup.
In the case of Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Grain Bread, the result is an organic, nutritionally-dense, high fiber bread that also is a complete protein — one of the few breads on the market that contain all 9 essential amino acids, is low in fat, has no Trans Fats or cholesterol and is generally low in sodium.
Ezekiel Bread is made from six organic grains and legumes – whole wheat, malted barley, whole millet, whole barley, whole lentils, whole soybeans, and whole spelt — which are sprouted and then combined together to make a bread.
Not only does the sprouting process create a more easily digested food, but it also creates a whole protein that closely parallels the protein found in milk, eggs and whey. In fact, Food for Life claims that the protein quality is so high, that it’s 84.3% as efficient as the highest recognized source of protein.
In all, Ezekiel Bread has 18 amino acids – all from vegetable sources and naturally balanced.
Even better, the ingredient list is short (always a good sign — especially when you are trying to follow a Clean Eating diet), containing only 10 whole, natural ingredients.
A MUST TRY! I found mine in the freezer section of Kroger by the organics!
Let me know what you think!
