Answer
Choose whole wheat bread, because it's more nutritious than white bread, plus it keeps you feeling full for longer.
Add some salad (lettuce, sliced tomato and cucumber, for example) and then a sliced boiled egg, some smoked ham (or a non-meat alternative, something in slices) or some sliced low-fat cheese, then add some low-fat mayonnaise or salad dressing. Wrap the sandwich in foil to keep it really fresh. You can also take an apple or orange.
Make sure the salad makes up half the filling though, because that bulks out the sandwich and is almost calorie-free. If you want to make something you can scoop into the salad, you could finely chop some celery and onion, and stir it with reduced-fat salad dressing plus a can of tuna or some chopped boiled egg, and use that.

Healthy dinner? No problem! ;)
Here's a menu for a soup-sandwich combo! Start with Chilled Tomato Soup, next comes Turkey Veggie Wraps and a side of Tangy Coleslaw. Also included is a delicious smoothie recipe =)
Chilled Tomato Soup:
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cups peeled and thinly sliced onions
3 tablespoons thinly sliced garlic
2 bay leaves
4 pounds firm, heirloom tomatoes, cored, seeded, and cut into eighths
1 tablespoon plus 1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon thyme leaves
4 cups water
2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Hot sauce
In a large saucepan over medium heat, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and bay leaves and cook for 5 more minutes. Add the tomatoes, 1 tablespoon salt, and thyme and cook for 15 minutes or until the tomatoes soften. Add the water and stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and continue to cook until the tomatoes are very tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the bay leaves. Using a handheld blender, puree the soup until smooth. Chill the soup. Add 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice and hot sauce to taste, as desired.
Turkey Veggie Wraps:
2 cups coarsely chopped smoked turkey breast (about 8 ounces)
2 cups gourmet salad greens
1/2 cup fresh corn kernels (about 1 ear)
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
3 tablespoons light ranch dressing
4 (8-inch) flour tortillas
Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl, tossing well to coat. Warm tortillas according to package directions. Top each tortilla with 1 cup turkey mixture; roll up. Cut each wrap in half diagonally.
Tangy Coleslaw:
Combine 1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise, 1/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt, 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toss with half of a 16-ounce package cabbage-and-carrot coleslaw; cover and chill.
Yogurt n Fruit Smoothie:
2 cups fat-free milk
1 (8-ounce) container vanilla low-fat yogurt
1/2 cup thawed pineapple-orange juice concentrate
2 cups frozen strawberries
1 banana, coarsely chopped
Process all ingredients in a blender until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. Serve immediately
