Nice Buns!

,

Since I began trying to really count points and eat right during the week, I’ve been obsessed with the Oroweat Sandwich Thin.

Only 1 point on WW.

No high fructose corn syrup.

My friend, and loyal reader, Lisa turned me onto a new sandwich and I am hooked.

I may have eaten 4 of them in the past 2 days!

Just grill some veggies: eggplant, zucchini, peppers, onions or yellow squash.

Slice some cucumbers.

Spread a half or whole serving of cream cheese (I like the whipped one with chives) on your lightly toasted thin and then add the sliced cucs and roasted veggies. Top with just a little sea salt from your grinder.

If you count the olive oil you used for grilling, this whole sammie is about 3 points (depending on how much cream cheese you use).

It’s so filling and flavorful.

Thanks again, Lisa!

I need to limit myself on these otherwise I may tire of them and I certainly don’t want that to happen!

If you’re a sandwich lover like me, are you always looking for new lunch possibilities?

I am.

What’s your current go-to lunchtime favorite between two carbs?

I’d love to hear what you’re packing in your picnic baskets this Summer!

    For a while, all I’d eat for lunch were these wraps made with a whole wheat low-carb wrap from Costco (can’t remember the name). I’d spread the chive cream cheese and add either lettuce or spinach and tuna or turkey. They were so good. But I ate too many and now I can’t look at those wraps or cream cheese the same way.

    So glad you like it!!! I tried something new tonight…Buy some Mezetta brand California Hot Mix (it’s cauliflower, jalapenos, carrots, celery, bell pepper and pickles in a water/vinegar juice). chop it up really fine and smear on the sandwich thins. Makes the sandwiches like Muffalettas. It’s sooooo good. Each serving of the Hot Mix is 5 calories so it’s not even a point and has no fat.
