I was wondering if a grilled cheese sandwich is a healthy option for lunch? I usually eat a pb&j sandwich, but I wanted something healthier. I usually eat apples or oranges with my lunch and sometimes I will just eat soup. Is there any healthy lunch options you would suggest? -Thanks

Hi! A grilled cheese sandwich is not much healthier than a pb&j sandwich. It contains less sugar but it has more ‘bad fat’ (saturated fat).

A healthier option for lunch could be for example:
- a peanut butter sandwich (without jelly), using whole grain bread and unsweetened/unsalted natural peanut butter. 
- 2 cups of carrots, celery sticks, salad or low sodium soup
- 1 apple 
- water 

If you’re still hungry, you can add one cup of fat-free unsweetened Greek yogurt.
