Popular Low Carb Foods
Explore Some of the Best Low Carb Foods
Finding the right ingredients to make low carb meals can be the difference between ditching this lifestyle or sticking to it and enjoying weight loss and better health. Furthermore, scanning the grocery store aisles can be confusing as many products look the same and feature the same messaging.
It’s important to understand that many people quit eating low carb early in the process not simply because they miss breads but because they can’t find delicious low carb options that excite them. These ingredients can help you make some of your favourite meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It’s about knowing what to look for and buying the best products on the market.
To help you out, we want to introduce you to 10 of our most popular products across several different food categories. Let’s review the most popular low carb breads, tortillas and pita options that we carry so you’re ready to get shopping and start cooking.
Low Carb Breads
Bread can undermine low carb eating. It’s key to so many recipes and something that many people enjoy eating on its own. To replace “regular” bread with a low carb option, you should try the brands that have been bought most often by our customers since January 2019.
Flax is a distinct flavour that helps separate SuperFlax Bread from other products. It’s filled with protein, flax oil and fibre, a combination which can make you feel full for a long time. Whereas traditional breads can contribute to an increase in one’s blood glucose level, Bakers Deluxe products don’t have the same affect. Additionally, the fibre content can help you feel regular and who doesn’t want that?
This bread pairs wonderfully with Nutilight Cocoa Spreads.
Carbonaut Plant-based Original White Bread
This plain bread is a delicious blank canvas for your favourite low carb sandwiches. They also make great breadcrumbs and croutons to add to salads and soups.
The ingredients include but are not limited to water, wheat protein, resistant potato starch, flax meal, salt, yeast and pea fibre. This bread is keto-friendly, made from plant-based and non-GMO ingredients, rich in fibre, and best of all, made in Canada!
Carbonaut Original White Bread can be stored at room temperature for about 8 days. It can be frozen for up to three months. For those with allergies, this product contains wheat and may contain sesame seeds.
Thinslim Foods Zero Carb Everything Bagels
Bagels are often a no go with low carb diets but, luckily, Thinslim Foods recognized this need and came up with a version of the everything bagel that has a fluffy, pleasant texture and taste that’s comparable to the real thing! This way you can enjoy a hearty bagel for breakfast before heading to work or school.
Per bagel, there is zero grams of net carbs (thus the name), 14g of fibre and 14g of protein. Pro tip: instead of popping these in the toaster or heating it in the microwave, top it with butter and lightly toast it in a fry pan. Then put your choice of spread: cream cheese, jams, chocolate, anything!
One thing you’ll love about Thinslim Bagel is that these are shelf-stable with unopened packaging! Keep them in the refrigerator once you open the bag, or pop the rest in the freezer to keep them longer.
Carbonaut Gluten-free Cinnamon Raisin Bread
Carbonaut has a long solid line of low carb breads, bagels, buns, pizza crusts, and even baking mixes. One of our best-selling Carbonaut product is their gluten-free cinnamon raisin bread. This crusty low carb bread with a soft centre has a nice hint of sweetness from raisins and packs a solid punch of cinnamon. It has so much flavour that you can simply enjoy it toasted with your favourite low carb spread.
This bread is shipped from frozen and it needs to be frozen again as soon as you receive it. With respect to its nutritional content, two slices only has 90 calories, 4.5g of fat, 6g of carbs and 29g of fibre.
The name says it all. This low calorie, keto-friendly bread has been carefully crafted and baked from the heart and soul of a dietitian-baker couple who are passionate about serving the best tasting healthy baked goods. With a denser texture, toasting a slice will give you an enjoyable, pleasing crunch that enhances its natural flavours.
Each slice only has 2 grams of net carbs, only 30 calories, zero fats, and only 150mg of sodium.
Sesame is a bread and bagel flavour staple that adds a unique element. Chompies offers a sesame bread that is low carb with the texture of a “regular” store bought bread. It’s light, moist and adept at satisfying even the most intense bread cravings. We recommend trying it with an egg white omelette in the morning.
Each slice contains 3g of carbs, 2g of fibre and 8g of protein.
Low Carb Tortillas

With only 3.5g of fat and 1g net carb per tortilla, you can include them in a lot of different dishes. They taste just like regular tortillas. We recommend cooking it in a dry pan and then topping with low carb cheese and veggies.
Low Carb Pitas
Joseph’s Bakery – Low Carb Pita
