If you give up sandwiches with white bread and smoked sausage, after a year you will find that your weight has decreased. And this is without any effort. But for many, a sandwich is a favorite “dish” for breakfast or a snack. What to do? Do not be discouraged, it can be made “safe” for the figure. The memo is in front of you.

Bread. Instead of fluffy wheat bread, choose rye, multigrain, or sourdough bread. These types have more fiber, which is necessary for normal digestion and vitamins.

Greens and vegetables. Lettuce, arugula , lettuce, crispy thin slices of fresh cucumber, avocado, tomatoes are an excellent filler for a healthy sandwich. They contain a large amount of folic acid, vitamin C, rutin, which strengthen the walls of blood vessels.

Meat. Replace smoked sausage with lean meat (turkey, beef, pork tenderloin, lamb fillet, rabbit). It is a source of complete protein, iron, vitamin B12 and calcium. They are necessary for blood formation, prevention of anemia and strengthening of bone tissue.

It is better to boil the meat, grill or fry in a “dry” frying pan without oil.

Sauce. Do not overuse commercial sauces, they are too high in preservatives, sugar and extra calories. Make homemade sauce. Take low-fat yogurt without additives, drip olive oil and lemon juice into it, you can add your favorite spices or fresh herbs.
