The ingredients are easy to recognize and pronounce, which isn\u2019t always the case with gluten-free breads.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I decided to dig into Rudi\u2019s Gluten-Free Multigrain Bread first. I needed something quick to eat after my Saturday long run before I took Hannah to ice skating. I decided that a PB &amp; J would hit the spot and could be taken with me, if need be. I was disappointed that when I took two slices of bread out of the bag they didn\u2019t seem to be sturdy enough to make any kind of a sandwich. I switched my thinking over to PB &amp; J toast and tossed the bread into the toaster. I wanted to only lightly toast the bread, but it was almost falling apart, so I put it back into the toaster. This is what I ended up with\u2026<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"IMG_1546.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/IMG_1546.jpg\" alt=\"IMG 1546\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Too dark and still not sturdy, one piece falling apart.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Today I tried a different approach using the Rudi\u2019s Gluten-Free Original Bread. The bread seems a little sturdier and I lightly toasted it so that I could spread PB &amp; J on it. Pre-toasting\u2026<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"IMG_1555.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/IMG_1555.jpg\" alt=\"IMG 1555\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Post-toasting with PB &amp; J\u2026<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"IMG_1557.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/IMG_1557.jpg\" alt=\"IMG 1557\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This worked much better, though they bread still isn\u2019t super-sturdy and I\u2019m not sure it would stand up to anything but light sandwich fillings. The bread is also very small, so I probably could have eaten 4 slices of PB &amp; J toast if I hadn\u2019t had a large bowl of fruit along with this. I hate to be so negative about this bread because it really does have a great taste to it, but it doesn\u2019t seem to be functional. I am going to see about using it to make French Toast. Eating the bread with a fork may be the best option.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have you tried the new Rudi\u2019s Gluten-Free Breads?
