Healthy Options at Naperville Sandwich Restaurants

Fast food may be a quick and even tasty choice, but it is certainly not a healthy one. Most fast food consists of burgers made of fatty, greasy ground beef, and fries, which means even more grease and loads of carbohydrates. There are taco joints as well, but you face the same problem—lots of carbohydrates and greasy or fatty meat. If you want to eat healthy but still get a quick, inexpensive bite, Naperville sandwich restaurants are your best choice. While all of the traditional sandwich chains are readily available, one that’s a little bit different and a lot better tasting is Which Wich.

A very healthy option at this restaurant is the turkey sandwich. Turkey is a naturally lean and filling meat with very few calories. If you skip out on extra condiments, like mayonnaise and cheese, you can save yourself a lot of fat and calories. The turkey and ham is a good choice as well if you follow these same principles. Other lighter options include the ham wich, the chicken cordon bleu wich, the hummus wich, the black bean patty wich, and the veggies and egg wich. These last three options are vegetarian as well, allowing you to cut back on cholesterol. Just look for sandwiches with the “lite” symbol next to them to make a healthy choice.

Most Naperville sandwich restaurants, Which Wich included, offer chips to go on the side. If you must have chips, choose a natural or baked option. Better yet, bring a piece of fruit or some veggie sticks from home for a truly nutritious meal. If you skip the soft drink, you might even have some calories left over to indulge in a dessert!
