Healthy Sandwich Alternatives

For generations, bread has been a mainstay of the human diet. However, bread has grown more processed since the 1850s. Bread-making techniques used for years were supplanted by the Industrial Revolution's automated processing procedures. As a result of inexpensive ingredients replacing the rich constituents of traditional bread, we get less nutrition from bread. 

When looking for bread alternatives, the best place to start is by making little modifications to help replace those nutrients with other wonderful options. Here are some of the best sandwich basics you can make with healthy bread alternatives. 

Lettuce Wraps 

Although lettuce contains few nutrients, it is one of the popular bread substitutes. When it comes to rigorously cutting calories or even eliminating bread for a carb reduction, lettuce wraps are your greatest friend. Lettuce wraps are an excellent bread substitute for sandwiches. A lettuce wrap can even hold a hamburger together! 

Nori 

Nori, a staple of many Asian cuisines, is one of the greatest bread substitutes since it is high in nutrients and minerals. There's a lot to like about Nori, notably the freedom to use it for whatever flavor you want.

Tortillas  

Tortillas have long been regarded as one of the most popular low-calorie bread options. With a reduced carb count and the possibility of still getting lots of fiber, they are an excellent compromise for bread lovers who are hesitant to give up grains. 

Avocado Tuna salad 

Tuna salad, like egg salad, can be made with avocados. Indeed, tuna salad with avocado is not only beautiful and vibrant, but it is also more filling due to the added fiber present in avocados.

 Avocado Toast

Topped toast is also a wonderful lunch option because it is lighter than bread-heavy sandwiches. Top your choice of whole grain or gluten-free toast with  protein-rich toppings of eggs, spinach, and avocados.
