A dinner roll made from whole grain like wheat, rye, etc. is a tasty and low calorie grain to add to your meal. Whole grain rolls are better for you than white flour rolls because wheat provides more dietary fiber and therefore less sugar. Wheat is also healthier for people with diabetes, because the dietary fiber from wheat help reduce blood sugar levels.
When you make your own rolls, you control the ingredients in them. You can even add interesting ingredients like ground veggies to increase the health benefits of veggies.
