Lunchtime!

A beautiful morning is slowly turning to a humid afternoon outside. Prepared a light lunch, Ham & Turkey on Whole Wheat Sandwich. I used a 1/2 serving of Oscar Mayer Carverboard Sliced Turkey along with a 1/2 serving of Kroger Brand Private Selection Sliced Ham. Topped with Lettuce, a slice of Private Selection Buffalo Monterey/Jack Cheese, and French's Yellow Mustard. Served it all on Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread. Big sandwich, few calories and carbs. About 220 calories and 18 carbs.

Today’s Menu: Grilled Ham and Cheese w/ Tomato Soup



It was comfort food at for dinner tonight! Grilled Ham & Salame and Cheese and a bowl of Tomato Soup! For my sandwich I used Oscar Mayer Carver Board Ham and for the Cheese something new, Buffalo Monterey Jack! I ran across it at Kroger and it's a Kroger Brand; Private Selection. It sounded good and tasted even better! It's got a hint of the Buffalo Heat and coupled with the Monterey/Jack it's fantastic. Topped it with some Kraft Reduced Fat Mayo w/ Olive Oil. I served it on Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread. I buttered the outside of each slice of bread with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter and grilled the sandwich browning both sides. I Love all the different types of Grilled Cheese and the different ways and toppings are endless. The ham, salame, and Buffalo Mont./Jack is a great trio!

For the soup I used Amy’s  Organic Light in Sodium – Cream of Tomato Soup which has been my Tomato Soup of choice lately. Not only great tasting but it’s only 110 calories and 19 carbs! I left the Soup info and description at the end of the post. For dessert later a Jello Sugar free Chocolate Pudding topped with Cool Whip Free.

Grilled Turkey and Swiss Cheese w/ Tomato Soup

Dinner Tonight: Grilled Turkey and Swiss Cheese Sandwich w/ Tomato Soup

A very simple but hearty dinner tonight. I had Grilled Turkey and Swiss Cheese Sandwich w/ Tomato Soup. I used Aunt Millie's Whole grain Bread topped with Oscar Mayer Carver Board Sliced Turkey, Sargento Ultra Thin Swiss Cheese, Amy's Organic Low Fat Cream of Tomato Soup. To grill the bread I used I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. Assembled the sandwich with a slice of Swiss, then Turkey, Kraft Reduced Fat w/ Olive Oil, and another slice of Swiss. Buttered the outside of the bread on bottom and top and grilled it in a small skillet till the cheese was starting to melt and bread was browned, flipped the sandwich one time.

The soup was Amy's Organic Low Fat Cream of Tomato. Love this soup! Great creamy flavor and only110 calories and 19 carbs. For dessert Breyer's Carb Smart Vanilla Ice Cream topped with Sliced Peaches. The Peaches are from South Carolina that we had frozen. These have got to be juiciest and most delicious Peaches i have ever had! We only have 1 bag left in the freezer so I'm going to enjoy these before their gone.
