Cutting Back Your Buns
Posted by in Food
Before
I often feel like the buns I get for sandwiches or burgers are just too big. They do sell thinner buns called Sandwich Thins, but since I’m gluten free those don’t work for me. What I do instead at home is to cut the middle third out of my buns (you can freeze this and use it for stuffing or breadcrumbs).
In restaurants, when you get a bun that is already sliced, I cut a little less then half off the top and bottom halves and put them back together.
Not only does this make them easier to eat, but it cuts your calorie count.

I’ve been doing this forever with bagels and any other crusty bread. . The outside is the best/ most crunchy part, in my estimation.
I like the inside of bagels best, so for those I usually cut off the outside.
Awesome tip!
My parents always told me the crust was the best part. I never believed them till I grew up.
Great idea. I do like big, crusty rolls but I try to not overdo it–this is an easy way to trim the carbs.
Thanks – I feel the same about the size of rolls. Great idea – since I don’t care for those sandwich thins -then I feel like I got NO bread.
