What are some healthy sandwich recipes?

Yahoo Guy

I need to some healthy sandwich recipes,..peanut butter and jelly isn't working for me (p.s. -i'm a body builder)

Answer
I like to make vegetarian sandwiches. Ubber healthy.

Take high fiber bread such as Squirrly bread, spread on light or non fat cream cheese to each slice, add thinly sliced tomatoes and cucumbers (whatever appeals to you) and some alphalfa sprouts.
NUM!

Or for higher proteins roast chicken or turkey slices with roasted red peppers on the same type of bread with low fat mayo.

Just an idea anyway.

Healthy sandwich recipes?

Q. Any really healthy sandwich recipes? NOTE: I'm on a diet, so no fattening things! PS NOTE: I'm 14, keep it easy. Something that I can take to school!
NOTE: I don't eat pig at all. Also I don't want meat/chicken in it xx

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.

Any egg salad sandwiches that mask the smell of eggs?

I love the taste of eggs, but I hate the smell of it. What are some healthy egg sandwich recipes that will hide the smell of eggs?

Answer
Add a lot of diced up celery, that does it for me. Also the crunchiness is great and it makes a very tasty sandwich. (For each egg use about a tbsp. of your favorite mayo.) Best to chill before eating; then all you'll smell is the celery.

What kind of HEALTHY recipes can I make with whole wheat Pita bread and Tortillas?

healthy sandwich recipes image

Q. I love vegetables and I need some healthy recipes for whole wheat pita bread and whole wheat tortillas... what can i make with them? Thanks.

Answer
I like to fill pita with hard salami and parsley (you could substitute leaner meat, though). Parsley is a great sandwich green and is friggin' loaded with vitamins and minerals.

Another favorite of mine is to make enchiladas with home-made red sauce. (Use lean meat like chicken breast and use a low-fat cheese. Authentic Mexican food doesn't have as much cheese as Americanized Mexican food anyhow.)

Red sauce:
Heat a few Tbsp. of oil in a 2qt. pot and add an equal amount of flour. Heat and stir until the combo (roux) bubbles for a minute or so.
Add ~1/2 cup of paprika (sounds weird, but bear with me...) and a little cayenne or other spicy ground red pepper to taste and continue to stir. You may need to add a little more oil.
Once this is mixed thoroughly and heated (you want the paprika to toast a bit) add ~ 1 1/2 c. water and stir with heat until the sauce thickens. (If sauce is too thick, add more water. Too thin, add a little corn starch/water slurry. You want it to be kinda like pizza sauce consistency.)
Salt to taste.
Fill tortugas with chicken, cheese, onions, olives, cilantro, whatever the hell you want. Have fun with it!
Put ~a third of the sauce in the pan, layer the enchiladas on top, then spread the rest of the sauce on them. Top with a little more cheese.
Bake @ 375F for about 40 min (until sauce is bubbling and cheese browns a little).

I love this recipe and always make it with whole wheat tortugas (good source of fiber) and this red sauce (TONS of vitamin A and other antioxidants).

I never use a recipe, so your results may vary. But it's cheap and pretty easy, so a few practice batches won't be too hard.
(Everyone tells me that they're WAY better than anything from any Mexican restaurant they've had!)

how to make a healthy sandwich wrap?

banapples3

im on a diet. my goal is to lose weight, but i also don't mind staying the same weight.
the other day i had two yummy sandwich wraps, but from the grocery store. it had the white cheese, i think a little bit of mayo, lettuce, and meat (ham)
is that healthy, or too fattening?


i figured the mayo and cheese would make it unhealthy, so is there anyone who knows how to make a healthy sandwich wrap?

Answer
I'm at work right now, so I don't have the recipe on hand, but if you go check out this month's Better Homes and Gardens they have an awesome recipe for a BLT like wrap.. it only has like 275 calories in the entire thing and its GREAT!

What is you all-time favorite sandwich recipe?

healthy sandwich recipes image

Q. Do you have a unique sandwich idea? I prefer healthy sandwiches (no bologna), but I'm getting bored with my usuals. What are some of your ideas to add variety to my lunch sandwiches? Different ideas for breads? ingredients? types of mustard? combinations of ingredients?

I already enjoy turkey w/ swiss, cheese, cranberry & stuffing ... another favorite is a good slice of baquette, w/ artichoke hearts, brie cheese, and toasted almonds, broiled til warm and gooey.
Wow, some great recipes so far! Things that have caught my eye are the olive spread and grilled vegies; the tofu; the Sharon sandwich; Calif chicken; tom, basil, mozzerella; and chicken w/ basil, etc.

I do enjoy PB& banana, I'll have to try w/ strawberry slices :-)

Tuna w/ BBQ sauce? what kind of bbq sauce?

Keep the ideas/recipes coming, and thanks!

Answer
grilled chicken breast
pesto sauce mixed with mayo
roasted red peppers
red onion, thinly sliced
provolone cheese
on herbed foccacia or ciabatta bread, or even in a pita

Then, if you have a grill (better yet, a panini grill), grill the completed sandwich until the cheese starts to melt and the bread gets crusty.

I think I have to get out of the food section. LoL. Drool =P

Any good recipes using a food processor?

anbutler19

Answer
Healthy Sandwich Bites

Use an assortment of cookie cutters (or just cut the bread into 4's), white and wheat bread, and the two types of sandwich spreads below to make a plate of healthy sandwich bites.

Roasted Chicken Spread:
Ingredients:
2 roasted chicken breasts, skinless and boneless, cut into small pieces
3 tablespoons light mayonnaise
1/4 cup light cream cheese (fat-free cream cheese can be substituted)

Cheddar Cheese Spread:
Ingredients:
8 ounces reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, shredded or grated
8 ounces light or nonfat cream cheese
9 slices special recipe white or whole wheat or cracked wheat bread

Prep:
1. Decide which spread you would like to make. Cut the bread slices into interesting shapes using cookie cutters. Press cookie cutter onto 1 slice of bread at a time. If bread doesn't cut all the way, use a plastic knife to cut around the cookie cutter. Make sure you make two of every shape (to make a sandwich).
2. For chicken spread, add the chicken pieces, mayonnaise, and cream cheese to a food processor. Pulse the food processor until ingredients are blended well and are spreadable.
3. For cheese spread, add grated cheese and cream cheese to food processor. Pulse the food processor until ingredients are blended well and are spreadable.
4. Spread some of the chicken or cheddar cheese spread on one of the bread shapes. Cover with the second piece of bread in the same shape. Repeat with other bread shapes.

One spread recipe makes about 12 mini sandwiches.

Any egg salad sandwiches that mask the smell of eggs?

Q. I love the taste of eggs, but I hate the smell of it. What are some healthy egg sandwich recipes that will hide the smell of eggs?

A. Add a lot of diced up celery, that does it for me. Also the crunchiness is great and it makes a very tasty sandwich. (For each egg use about a tbsp. of your favorite mayo.) Best to chill before eating; then all you'll smell is the celery.
