Going low-carb [1] (or even keto!) doesn't have to mean cutting out bread completely [2]. And if that news weren't reason enough to celebrate, consider this: there are tons of companies that cater to low-carb sandwich-lovers by creating breads made from whole grains [3] or virtuous ingredients like almond flour. If you like to get in the kitchen yourself, there are even premade mixes available to take the guesswork out of whipping up your own recipe. Keep reading for a wide range of breads that are equal parts tasty and light in carbs — and just begging to be topped with avocado and greens.
