In between

Sandwiches needn’t be boring – why not diversify your casing or your fillings to give your taste buds a bit of a change of scenery! Surprise your husband or kids with something different in their lunchboxes.

Sandwiches are supposed to be a meal – a balanced, nutritional mouthful encased in a convenient wrapping. Try adding veggies wherever possible – lettuce, tomato and cucumber are the obvious choices – and why not try including carrot strips, finely sliced cabbage, sliced peppers, mushrooms or grilled Mediterranean vegetables…

Roast vegetable sandwich

Traditional roast vegetables on olive ciabatta is great with a handful of mixed baby greens – watercress, rocket, baby spinach…

Grilled aubergine sandwich

Grilled aubergine is very tasty with mayonnaise, tomato and cheese on a whole wheat pita bread.

Smoked salmon and kiwi sandwich

Smoked salmon and kiwi seem like an odd combination, but try it with smooth cottage cheese and some fresh coriander, on a whole wheat seeded roll, and you will be hooked!

Grilled Mediterranean vegetable sandwich

Grilled Mediterranean vegetables with grilled haloumi, tomato, hummus and pesto – delicious in a Lebanese wrap.

Open avocado sandwich

A very simple salad sandwich of avocado, sliced baby rosa tomatoes and parsley with vinaigrette goes down a treat on sliced and toasted French loaf.

Ostrich carpaccio, brie and cucumber sandwich

Ostrich carpaccio, brie and cucumber with Dijon mustard is a hit on lightly toasted olive ciabatta.
