Fans of functional foods that lean more on the familiar formats like sauces, pasta, rice, oats, and even bread, especially bread, will want to check out the fast-growing Sola. Protein-infused products are expanding rapidly, not just in terms of how many there are, but how accepted they are. Sola is available at major big box outlets like Walmart and Wegmans, and rightfully so, as it makes a very seamless high-protein family of products.
Filling out the Sola catalog is bread, bagels, and granola, and they all have some sort of functionality to them beyond the traditional versions. The granola, a typically high-carbohydrate food, has low net carbs are Sola, ranging from 3 to 6g, depending on the flavor, which includes Maple Pecan, Double Chocolate, and Blueberry. The other bread-based items are a mix of that low-carb approach or high protein, and in both directions, the brand impresses.
On the bagel side, Sola has protein-packed bagels with 14 to 15g per bagel and still relatively low net carbohydrates, as low as 5g, similar to the granola. The bread has two options, a variety of flavors with impressively minimal net carbs down to just a single gram per slice. Sola also has protein bread, exclusively in a soft white variant, and equally standout macros at 10g per slice, 8g of net carbohydrates, and under 100 calories.
Mainstream formats are one of the best ways to take in more protein, as it’s a simple switch for something you may already be having, as opposed to adding a shake or bar. Sola offers precisely that with bread that is leaner than most protein bars and granola fit for a keto-friendly lifestyle. You can check out the brand’s selection on its website and to try it firsthand, by heading to your local Walmart, Wegmans, Hyvee, Publix, HEB, and even Whole Foods.
