Healthy Italian Sandwich

One of the biggest challenges facing people today is eating on the go. We're often in settings that don't allow us the opportunity to reheat a prepared sit down meal that requires utensils.
While a healthy trail mix can certainly fill in as a calorie dense snack, most people don't find it particularly satisfying.
A good sandwich can incorporate protein, carb and veggies and leave you feeling satisfied.

Start with 2 slices of whole grain or sprouted grain bread. A good rule is to choose the densest bread you can find. I like to use Pesto and Roasted red pepper spread to put the Italian touch on the sandwich. For meats I prefer nitrate free porscuitto and turkey. Throw on some low fat provolone and top it off with some organic mixed sprouts.

In summary:

• 2 slices of whole grain bread
• 1 tsp of pesto
• 1 tsp of roasted red pepper spread
• 2 slices of nitrate free porscuitto
• 2 slices of nitrate free oven roasted turkey
• 1 slice of low fat provolone or havarti
• 1 handful of organic mixed sprouts
