5. Premade Sandwiches
Sandwiches can be a healthy midday meal, but they have to be made right. Grocery store or gas station offerings are made to sit in the case for days on end, so the individual components are often soaked in some sort of chemical preservative.
When you buy a premade sandwich, you also don’t have the chance to swap fatty mayo for healthy avocado, or add a handful of nutrient-rich sprouts.
When you make your sandwich at home, you can customize it any number of ways, and end up with a meal that delivers the kind of slow burn you need to get through the day.
