Healthy Sandwich Options

’ve always loved a good sandwich!  It’s been a part of my staple diet for as long as I can remember. Making a sandwich is easy and fast for lunch, snacktime, dinner or whenever you have the craving. Unfortunately, many store bought sandwiches are filled with preservatives and bad stuff.  Many of our tried and true favorite’s we make at home are just plain not good for you.  Wonder bread and mayo anyone?
