Hi Guys,

I hope you’re well.

I’ll keep this post short and sweet. A friend of mine Jola, requested for a recipe for a club sandwich via twitter (Follow me on @dubaifitfoodie) and I was more than happy to oblige. This recipe has all the elements of a classic club sandwich without all that grease and calories. Win win. I opted for wholegrain bread which has a hardy texture that compliments this sandwich. Low-fat yogurt or hummus work perfectly as a delicious spreads so drop that jar of mayonnaise. For protein, I decided to add some slices of roasted chicken, but I bet turkey bacon would also be a perfect fit. Vegan-fam,  don’t fret the sandwich is still delightful without meat. It is filled with a variety of fresh crunchy vegetables for flavour, texture and colour. Lightly season with fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper for a great tasting meal.

Try this and you’ll love me. It comes together in no time, its easy to pack with little or no clean up involved. All the things I love in a lunch.

As always, I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the post. Till next time.
