Notes:
- Sandwiches are great for meal prep throughout the week. If you will not eat it right away, consider taking your condiments on the side and preparing right before your lunch.
Nutrition Notes:
- Packing your sandwich with a protein, veggies, and cheese will make it both filling and delicious. Try to focus on using 100% whole wheat for your bread option and get a variety of color in your vegetable toppings!
Savings Tip:
- Most of these toppings can be repurposed in a salad. Consider buying vegetables on sale that can be used for both when meal prepping for your week.
