Bread, rice, pasta and cereals
Wholemeal, brown, granary or seeded bread
Avoid — On the avoid list of the leaflet this book follows, or restricted almost everywhere.
Swaps
- Instead of Wholemeal, granary or seeded bread, use White bread
- Wholemeal, granary and seeded loaves keep their bran and seed casings, which is exactly the roughage a low-residue diet removes.
- Instead of Wholemeal pizza base, use White pizza base, or a plain naan-style flatbread base
- A wholemeal base carries the same bran as wholemeal bread, so a white base or a plain naan gives the same result made from refined flour instead.
