I don’t make a whole lot of sandwiches at home because there is something tasty about a sandwich that someone else makes for you.

But, today I had all the key ingredients for making a gourmet, at-home sandwich!

• Pesto from Costco: Delicious! And the first ingredient is basil. Now of course this is a high calorie item, but contains all healthy monounsaturated fats from olive oil and pines nuts. And you only need 1-2 tsp.
  • You could make your own pesto as well
• Whole wheat bread
• Tomato slices
• Trader Joe’s herbed turkey (nitrite free!)
• Spinach leaves
• Cheddar dill cheese (from Farmer’s Market)

And voila! You have an at-home gourmet sandwich.
