I frequent many foodblogs and websites and from them I get great cooking ideas all the time. I also learn a lot about healthy cooking and nutrition. One of my favorite sites is http://www.skinnytaste.com/. The recipes are uncomplicated and always healthy because the premise behind the blog is to include weightwatcher points and the blogster Gina is very cognizant to keep the points low, but make delicious, nutritious meals. Obviously, many recipes dont work, if certain key ingredients are missing ie chicken or whitefish, but many can be adapted and many truly contain ingredients that are available at convenient stores.
One day her Cuban Sandwich popped up on the blog, and I have been making them ever since.
she used a french bread, but that isnt always available, so I stuck with my good old wholewheat bread, because I do love all the fiber and vitamins in every bite.
The sandwich also calls for deli meat-ham, turkey or both
cheese
mustard
and the key ingredient that makes it a cuban- pickles
Pickles are actually pickled cucumbers and considered a vegetable. They contain vitamin A, K, iron, protein.
makes 1 sandwhich
ingredients
2 slices delimeat .40
1 slice cheese(cheddar, swiss).15
