Healthy Picnic Sandwiches


Ask anyone:
"What would you expect to eat at a picnic?"
The most likely answer: "Sandwiches, of course!"

They are the ultimate portable picnic food. Healthy too! What could be better than carbohydrates, protein and fruit/veggies all in one bite?



Most of these recipes are best made with a sturdy bread — like a baguette or ciabatta. Breads that have a relatively dense texture and won’t go too soggy in transport. Pita bread, tortilla's and lavash are also excellent choices (especially if they are whole wheat or multi-grain). If you have a bread machine, consider making your own healthy bread.

From Italian submarines to lavash wraps, and even vegetarian pitas, these recipes will create masterpieces that demand attention! Combine it with a healthy salad recipe and you'll have a complete meal. And don't forget the "a href="picnic_drinks.html">picnic drinks!
