Hello everyone!
Tomorrow I'm going to partecipate to a sandwich party, in which everyone brings his own sandwich... I wanted your advice on a healthy sandwich. I was planning on using avocado since it is an ingredient that has always fascinated me but I never got a chance to use it.
Do you have any suggestion for me?

Thank you!
V.

    Avocado and bacon is good. Avocado and tomatoes. Avocado and hardboiled or fried eggs. Avocado and pesto. Avocado and arugula. Avocado and hummus.

    The options are endless.

    Turkey with a slice of cheese (or not) on whole wheat bread.

    I've been blessed with the fact that I don't like mustard, mayo, etc, etc on my sandwich...just like them nice and plain. It's the healthiest way to go.

    This weekend, my lunches consisted of an open faced sandwich made of 12 grain bread, avocado (mashed & spread on toast) and sliced tomatoes with just a little schmear of Renee's Southwest Ranch dressing on the bread. It was SOOOOO good. It will be on my weekend lunch menu many times in my future.

    I just had the yummiest lunch. I made it this morning and brought it with me. It was only 246 calories and had 24 grams of protein! I started with a Flat Out Multigrain with Flax Seed wrap, added several slices of shaved turkey, several slices of shaved cooked ham, one slice of cheese, some lettuce, tomato, and baby spinach. I rolled it all up and dipped it in ranch (that added another 70 calories, but it's all good) as I ate it! NOM NOM NOM

    I wish I could eat Avocado :(

    I pretty much build my sandwiches around a lot of green leaf lettuce and tomatoes; usually it'll be tuna with 1/2 tbsp lite mayo and mustard, low sodium turkey and low-fat swiss, or grilled chicken (sometimes I'll add bbq sauce, but have to be careful of that sodium!). I also use lite-wheat bread; 80 calories per 2 slices, doesn't have any huge grains or anything in it but still has a decent amount of fiber (I hate the texture of most whole-wheat breads).
