Gluten Free Pain Perdu for Weight Control

The pain perdu (French toast cooked in egg custard) shown here is made from low GI gluten-free bread available from by Country Life Bakery. The low GI comes from almond and linseed fortification of the bread. When cooked, the bread softens to a texture very much like sponge cake. The pain perdu, together with low fat ricotta accompaniment, makes an excellent low GI and high protein meal suitable for weight control. Gluten free food is particularly useful for people with autoimmune diseases like hypothyroidism due to Hashimoto.

According to celebrity gossip, the very famous Betheny Frankel claims her new book "Naturally Thin: Unleash Your SkinnyGirl and Free Yourself from a Lifetime of Dieting" will make Oprah Winfrey thinner.

Noodle Cook cannot claim that food alone can make anyone skinny, but a gluten free meal can contribute to the well being of autoimmune disease sufferers. Would Oprah Winfrey like to try gluten free, low GI, high protein food instead of dieting?
