Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Healthy sandwich suggestions needed pls.

Damn, there are a lot of tasty-sounding sandwiches in this thread. Some of them even sound easy / healthy / tasty all at the same time.

My token contribution to healthy eating is that I started making kimchi at home again and just started my first batch of sauerkraut. Yeah, I weakened and ordered one of those big-ass Harsch fermentation crocks. Kimchi is great on sandwiches if you like the red pepper and garlic; sauerkraut is almost as good if you don't.

My "lazy man's work lunch" involves dumping some coleslaw mix, chopped onion, whatever vegetables are in the back of the fridge, some leftover chicken and some dressing into a plastic container, mixing it up a bit and taking it to work... and keeping a bag of tortillas in my desk. I'm not a big fan of raw cabbage but after a couple of hours in the fridge at work it's just about ready to wrap some in a tortilla and eat.

Pitas might work better than tortillas, now that I think about it.

Sorry, I can't resist this one....From the book of John.....

"if you go carryin' pictures of Chaaaiiirman Maaooo, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyyyhowww..."

That sounds good. Maybe a few walnuts for a bit of crunch and a bit of Wasabi to lift the top a bit, clear the sinuses and distinguish the sandwich from a Waldorf.

If everyone on the forum had a trail camera mounted in their kitchen...

... how many pictures of startled people holding sandwiches would we have by now ?

Well...have we talked about healthy enough, Cam? I am having the urge to sidetrack this to....unhealthy? I indulge my impulses much less these days but....sliced, semi thick, sour dough bread with mayo, sharp cheddar cheese, sauteed (in a tiny amount of olive oil) baby portabella shrooms and topped with broccoli or alfalfa sprouts.....slow toasted, of course...

I am putting on my shoes and headed to the 24 hour deli....

I nearly eat 1 pb&J per day. It has to be the natural crunchy peanut butter with just peanuts and salt, no extra ingredients. I like the smuckers natrual crunchy the best, along with the smuckers "simply fruit" jelly.

Good stuff.

Nutella and banana sandwich.

Kosher salami and banana on rye sandwich.

Chopped liver and pimento on rye bread.

Turkey (real roasted breast meat) and Pastrami combo on rye bread with Russian dressing.

Scottish double smoked salmon, cream cheese with chives on a garlic bagel (real bagel not bread in the shape of a bagel).

I have to take a break now for a PB&J and a glass of milk.

YUM!
