Is your lunchtime sandwich as healthy as it could be?

The American Heart Association suggests:

• Opt for 100 percent whole grain breads, tortilla wraps or pita pockets. Make sure they contain no hydrogenated oils and little saturated fat.
• Switch up the usual lettuce and tomato with some shredded carrot, zucchini, or slices of pear or apple.
• Skip mayo and cheese in favor of avocado or hummus.
• Swap processed lunch meat for grilled chicken leftovers.
