answer
The all-American sandwich is also an all-round pick-me-up, thanks to its amazingly complete mix of carbs, healthy fats, protein, and whole-grain fiber. Just make it a one-slice fold-over to cut the calories down to about 200, and use all-natural peanut butter that has no added sugar or fats. (Look for peanuts and peanuts only in the ingredients!)
