A healthy sandwich is made from wholesome, fresh bread, e.g. wholemeal or wholegrain, and has a very low fat content or none at all. Watch your consumption of margarine, ‘butter, cheese, fatty cold meats and rich sauces such as mayonnaise. Raw vegetables, such as tomato, cucumber, radish, lettuce, grated carrot, celeriac, alfalfa and other sprouts, make excellent sandwich fillings. Lean cold meats and cold fish are also delicious in sandwiches, and freshness is all-important. An egg sandwich every now and then makes a nice change, as long as you are not eating more than three eggs a week and your general fat intake is reasonable.
Cheese is rich in calcium and therefore a useful food for growing children, but remember that it does contain fat unless you use the low-fat cottage varieties. Cold baked beans (preferably home-cooked), lentils and peanut butter also make healthy, tasty sandwiches. After eating a nutritious sandwich, it is pleasant to finish off your lunch with seasonal fruits.
