Choose your sandwich ingredients wisely
There are some culprits that can turn a seemingly innocent sandwich into a not-so-healthy option. Here are some of them:
1. Choice of bread
Opting for refined white bread, which is very common, instead of whole grain can add empty calories and spike your blood sugar.
2. Mayonnaise and sauces
These can be loaded with calories, especially if you slather them on the bread generously. Hummus, mustard and Greek yogurt are some of the healthier alternatives.
3. Processed meats
Deli meats are convenient, but can be high in sodium, preservatives and saturated fats. Choosing leaner and less processed proteins is a healthier option.
4. Cheese
While cheese adds deliciousness, it can also contribute to excess calories and saturated fats. Moderation is key, and you might consider lower-fat cheese options.
5. Fried or breaded components
If your sandwich involves fried or breaded elements, you're adding extra calories and unhealthy fats. Grilled or baked options are better choices, says the expert.
It is Sandwich Day, so get ready to prepare some healthy sandwiches. Check out these sandwich recipes for weight loss.
