Easy Sandwich Ideas

 I love sandwiches. Normally I'll eat a half-sandwich because I don't want to eat so much bread. But you can always use these spreads for a lunch of spread and crackers or even put them on cuts of cucumber or raw zucchini. 

Egg and Tuna Spread

• 1 5oz can tuna
• 1 chopped large hard boiled egg
• 1 tbsp sweet relish or dill
• 1 tbsp light mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp finely chopped celery
• 1 tbsp finely chopped red onion

Mix well and chill before using.

Polish Egg Salad (for three)

• 1 large hard boiled eggs, chopped and mashed up slightly
• 1/2 tbsp softened butter
• 1 tbsp whipped cream cheese
• 1 tbsp light mayonnaise

Mix well and serve immediately or chill, covered.

Cheesy Toast (an open face sandwich)

• 6 slices of heavy bread,  like rye, or sourdough or pumpernickel
• 1 cup shredded very sharp white cheddar cheese
• 2 tbsp light mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp softened butter
• 2 tsp grainy mustard

1. Mix together the above and divide between the six slices of bread 
2. Place on a sheetpan and broil for 2 minutes or until slightly golden and bubbly on top
3. Serve, 2 slices per person

Classic Lunch Sandwich

This sandwich is such a classic (for 3)

Stack things up as you desire, cut in half and serve with a pickle and chips. Just like the lunch counter!

Mediterranean Rollups

• 3 lower carb flour tortilla wraps
• 1/2 cup humus
• 1/2 cup tabouli (premade is fine)
• 3 romaine lettuce leaves
• 3/4 cup sprouts 
• 1 chopped tomato

1. Spread the humus on the wrap
2. fill with the rest of the items
3. Roll it up and eat it up!

The Classic Southern Tomato Sandwich

It's not difficult. 

1. 1 large slicing tomato
2. 6 slices of heavy bread 
3. Mayonnaise
4. Salt and Pepper to taste

Do I really have to tell you what to do? lol

Turkey, Avocado and Cucumber Sandwich

• 6 slices rye bread
• 6 oz sliced deli turkey
• 1 avocado

Mash the avocado on one side of each sandwich, divided evenly

Pile everything else on and finish by placing mayo on the second slice
