Why I Use Nature’s Pride Bread & Whole Wheat Orange-Ginger-Walnut Stuffing Recipe

This post brought to you by Nature’s Pride Bread. All opinions are 100% mine.

I was pleased to be offered the opportunity to create a new recipe using Nature’s Pride Bread.  You see, that is the brand I started buying recently.  I had carefully trialed my autistic daughter on a gluten and casien free diet for a few months, and didn’t see a marked improvement.  When I brought gluten back, there was no problem, until I gave her a sandwich on storebrand light wheat.  She had a bad reaction.  I looked into the ingredients on this bread vs. the wheat containing items she had been eating without any problem, and found a few suspcious chemicals (sulfates).  Fully organic bread is rather expensive, so I started carefully reading the ingredients listed on the offerings in the bread department.  That is when I found Nature’s Pride breads. They  don’t contain HFCS nor  sulfates, and are priced quite reasonably. They were even Buy 1 Get 1 Free at my grocer this week

Well, now you know why I buy this bread, on to the recipe for Orange Ginger Walnut Stuffing!
