" Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed in the things that you didn't do than the ones you did do. So throw off the bow lines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." ~Mark Twain

Loaf contains about 1,450 calories

A light breeze, a light kiss and a light loaf of Seaside Bread - the perfect formula for creating that perfect day.

We recommend that you use minimal light butter on this bread recipe. You might enjoy the no calorie butter spray as well which stores nicely in the fridge.

Tom and I also like to enjoy a bottle of carbonated grape juice - the kind that comes in what looks like a wine bottle, but it's non-alcoholic.

Seaside Bread Ingredients
1 ½ Cups of Water
1 Package of Active Dry Yeast
3 ½ Cups of Bread Flour
1 ½ Teaspoons of Salt
1 ½ Tablespoon Sugar
1 Tablespoon of crushed fresh or dried rosemary

Toss all ingredients in a bread machine & allow time to reach baking cycle OR you can mix and knead dough by hand. If you choose to knead dough by hand, knead until the bread is elastic-like. Set aside in a bowl that has been lightly oiled and cover with a damp cloth.

Allow to rise until doubled. Punch down shape into loaf allow to rise again.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake the Seaside Bread till golden brown.

Remove & brush with no calorie butter OR spray with non-stick, butter flavored cooking spray. Sprinkle on a bit of dried oats (whole oatmeal). Allow to cool before cutting with a bread knife.

For an added treat, separate and bake in individual dishes. Cut a hole in cooled bread to form a well. Fill with your favorite reduced fat cream of chicken, cream of asparagus, cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup. Reduced fat cheese soup may also be used.
