I forgot another Aldi find we got the other day, and that’s the L’Oven Fresh skinny bagels. I picked up the everything style.
On the weekend, I like to make a savory breakfast to take a break from the weekday smoothies. So on Sunday morning, I fried super extra firm tofu slices seasoned with black salt, nutritional yeast, black pepper and a little turmeric for color purposes only to make an egg-like thing. I made a Tofurky ham, “egg” and Violife cheddar sandwich. It was pretty filling and I think it had 25 grams of protein and under 350 calories. I meant to add tomato slices but totally forgot and that’s fine. But it was pretty easy, and kept us going for a few hours. I will say though, while these skinny bagels are very nice to eat, they really aren’t bagels! I mean, they seem more like those sandwich thins but with everything bagel seasoning on them. I am fine with that though. I like real bagels too, but I am not an absolutist. I think you can find a very similar product at other grocery stores called Thomas bagel thins.
Besides being a good thing to make a breakfast sandwich with, I used them to make my son a Tofurky ham and Violife cheddar sandwich for his school lunch. I toasted the bagel skinny for a few minutes in the air fryer and microwaved the “ham” and “cheese” to melt the cheese onto it for a few seconds and then just put it all together. My kid has decided PB&Js suck and has taken to throwing them or smashing them…LOL. I only send them once a week but he’s OVER IT. Oh well…sigh. Good news is the teacher said he liked his lunch today so woohoo! I have a new meal to add to the lunch rotation.
These skinny bagels sound great. Thanks for sharing.
That is so funny about how your son decided that peanut butter and jelly sandwiches suck. I guess maybe they would kind of suck, compared to a delicious vegan ham and cheese Sammy made with these everything bagel thins!
