Health Tip: A Trip to the Sandwich Shop Can Be Healthy

in #health7 years ago

A trip to the sandwich shop is a great choice for a healthy meal on the go, assuming you make the right menu choices.

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics suggests:

Ask for condiments on the side, so you can control how much you use.
Skip the cheese altogether, or ask for low-fat cheese.
Pair your sandwich with a salad or fruit, instead of a bag of chips.
Fill your sandwich with lean cuts of turkey, chicken, ham or beef.
Opt for a veggie sandwich, or pile a meat sandwich with lots of veggies.
