The Ultimate Sandwich Makeover

Sandwiches get a bad rap, but they don't have to be a diet disaster. If fact, with a few swaps and additions here and there sandwiches can be filling, light and super convenient. I still go to some of my childhood faves.....but with a few adult modifications. Summer may be coming to an end, but sandwiches still make an easy poolside or beach lunch option that sure beats any concession stand hotdog.

A Few More of My Favorite Food Finds

If you haven't noticed, this is an on going blog theme. I love sharing the foods I not only recommend you buy, but buy myself. Yes, we have more control in what we put into our bodies when we prepare food from scratch, but unfortunately our environment and hectic schedules get in the way of adhering to this philosophy 100% of the time.
