Healthy Sandwich

To lose weight is not about shutting off carbohydrates completely out of your meal. It is more about exercising regularly and knowing how to eat right.

To have a lighter meal of the day, you can opt for a tasty, crunchy Baguete Sandwich for lunch. See recipes below if you like my recommendation.



Ingredients

1 small baguette (purchased or freshly baked)
Cheese (may be soft cheese, such as Brie, or hard cheese, such as Gouda)
Ham
Tomato
Green Leafy Vegetable / Lettuce
Mayonnaise or mustard
Cornichons (tiny sweet French pickles) - Optional


Procedure


Slice the baguette in half lengthwise.
Spread one half with mayonnaise or mustard, depending on preference.
Arrange sliced cheese and ham over the mayonnaise.
Slice the sweet pickles in half, and arrange on ham.
Top with sliced tomato and green leafy vegetable/lettuce.
Wrap in plastic wrap and carry for lunch away from home.

Serves 1 or 2.
