English Salmon Sandwich (1 Sandwich)

Make it an open-faced sandwich: use one thin slice of dense 100% pumpernickel bread and add extra salmon, cucumber, and leafy greens instead of a second slice.

Choose a salmon filling without sweet sauces or chutney; use lemon, herbs, mustard, or a small amount of mayonnaise instead.

Eat a side salad of leafy greens, cucumber, tomatoes, and avocado with the sandwich, using an unsweetened dressing.

Reduce the bread portion further if needed and increase the salmon and non-starchy vegetables to stay full.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk soon after eating, if this is safe for you.

Check your glucose response to different bread brands and portion sizes, since prepared sandwiches can vary substantially in added sugars and bread quantity.
