New year, new you! With the new opportunities and challenges the new year brings, we're sure you're ready to give it your all to become a better version of yourself. If this means leading a healthier lifestyle, you'll have to take good care of what you eat. A sandwich done right, for example, is a simple and delicious way to get all the nutrients you need without any hassle.

If you'd like to learn how to make the perfect healthy sandwich, keep reading these tips by Great Harvest in Butte. How to Make a Healthy Sandwich

Go for Good Ingredients

Before you start, keep in mind that your healthy sandwich should have the best ingredients around for it to provide all the nutrients your body requires to function properly.

Whole Grain Bread

Tied to the point above, look for delicious whole grain bread that won't be filled with starchy ingredients or refined sugars. After all, this is the foundation upon which your sandwich is built, so look for the best.

Lean Protein

If you want your sandwich to keep you full for longer and give you energy, you need to go for lean sources of protein. This can be anything from turkey ham and eggs, to tuna and salmon. 

Veggies and Fruit

This is where you can go all out and get creative with your sandwich since practically anything goes. Tomato slices, bell pepper, avocado, and tons of lettuce, for example, can be the perfect options.

Low-fat Dairy

We know that adding cheese and a bunch of dressings to your sandwich can be tempting. However, if you want to keep it light, reach for low-fat options and don't go overboard with them.

Extras

The extras, like mayonnaise and mustard, can add a ton of flavor to your sandwich but, once again, you should be careful with them so they don't throw your healthy efforts out the window.
