I've already shared how you can snack properly when dieting, how to grocery shop for healthy food, and how to control yourself when eating out. Now, I'm  here to aid you regarding eating lunch at work. Well, I'm actually here to aid you regarding preparing weight loss packed lunch for work. And nothing spells packed lunch better than s-a-n-d-w-i-c-h. After taking ideas from the healthy grocery shopping post, you might have stocked on a wide array of body fat loss healthy ingredients and healthy food. But how should you prepare it for your daily meals like a packed lunch sandwich?

 Sandwiches are the most common lunch fare in existence. It can become boring and blah. But if you put a little creativity and healthier options into it, your lunch sandwiches won't be so ordinary and fattening. Instead of the usual white bread, add variety by choosing whole wheat. Oat, rye, and buckwheat are available. The texture and subtle change in taste can add more oomph to your sandwiches. Maybe using whole wheat buns, bagels, and pita bread would be interesting and tastier! Here are tasty sandwiches that would attract your eyes and taste buds.
  • Raspberry goat cheese sandwich -This simple open-face sandwich is refreshingly tart and nutty at the same time. Plus, raspberries pack a whole lot of metabolism-aiding fiber. Just spread some goat cheese on your preferred bread and place raspberries on top. (c/o katheats.com)
  • Balsamic veggie sandwich - Healthy and surprisingly yummy, the variety of flavors and texture gives you a one of a kind sandwich experience. (c/o buttermilkandpinecones.blogspot.com)
  • Crab, Lemon, Parsley, and Caper salad with Ricotta on Crostini canapés - Who says canapés should only be served in parties? Have a party of one at work by trying out this guilt-free tasty canapés. (c/o thebiggestloser.com.au)

  • Tofu bun -Tofu is the meat of vegans. But even non-vegans can enjoy it as substitute for meat when on a weight loss diet. Here's a mighty tasty take on tofu (c/o vegan.sheknows.com) Or how about really transforming tofu into a burger? (c/o chefinyou.com)

  • Guiltless health wrap - Like sandwiches, wraps can be filled with different ingredients depending on your prefence. Wrap some lettuce/romaine, low-sodium deli meat, cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions, olives, corn, cheddar cheese, mustard, plain yogurt and pepper into a whole wheat wrap and enjoy being on a flavor high! Another favorite version of mine is wrapping low-sodium deli ham, cheddar cheese, barbecue sauce, and banana peppers into a whole wheat pita bread.

The cut of sandwiches can make a difference as well. From whole wheat wraps, to great canapés, take your sandwiches to a whole new different level.
