Best Sandwich's

About 7 years ago white bread became obsolete in my house.  The only bread entering the Mock household is wheat and the occasional sourdough (strictly for toast about twice a year).  My husband had the hardest time adjusting to wheat compared to the rest of the family.  This is also the man who when I met him never ate salad; unless he was stealing bites from my plate at Denny's.  Course when there are no other choices you are forced to adapt.  Perhaps you are unaware about what makes the white bread white and what happens to it in your body. 

Sadly I will give you the 101 on white bread.  White bread generally (unless otherwise noted) comes from "bleached" flour.  And it becomes sugar in your body.  While some of us have high metabolism's that burn off this excess sugar easily, some of us do not.  So that bread instead becomes fat that you may as well add to your stomach or behind.  My recommendation is to change the eating habit of white bread early and never look back.

My four kids love sandwhich's and variety is the key. 
Sandwhich suggestions all with wheat bread:

-PB&J (organic or natural peanut butter; the kind you usually have to stir together and a homemade jam or jam without sugar/corn syrup in the top 3 ingredients).
-PB and honey or sliced banana
-Shaved Ham or Turkey with non-processed cheese (Mine prefer variety, try provolone, colby jack, havarti or different types of cheddar) with small amount of mayo (if you use it), mustard and lettuce.
-Ham and Cucumber slices (salt and pepper to taste)
-Cucumber and cream cheese
-Vegan sandwhich may contain any combination of lettuce, tomato, pickles, olives, cucumber, spinach etc.

What ever you choose you can dress it up and make it fun for them with those awesome new sandwhich presses with different shapes from trains to hearts to butterflies for around $2.00 and up.  For those of you out there who are trying to reduce waste, use non-disposable rubbermaid/tupperware type sandwich containers.

Enjoy your lunch!
