Subway is seriously underrated for the nutrition you can get on the quick and cheap. With so many great offerings, you just have to know what you want and you can steam roll that line as you load on the nutrition.
First of all, start with Subway’s higher fiber bread choices, that would be either the Honey Oat (5g fiber for a 6″ roll) or 9-Grain Wheat (4g fiber for a 6″roll). Automatically you’ll knock out a good chunk of your daily fiber requirement, and double that if you get a foot long sub.
Then choose a nice low-fat meat choice. Pile on that protein for sustenance. (The great thing about Subway is that they don’t skimp on the meat!)Turkey, chicken, or ham are great options. Go light on the cheese because that quickly piles on the saturated fat.
Finally, pile those veggies on- the last station is great. You can get green peppers, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, and peppers for virtually 0 calories and no extra charge. They do offer light mayo if you’re a creamy condiment person (just use a little), and as always, add as much mustard as you want, it’s a freebie.
Less than 5 minutes and you’re out the door, nutritionally loaded sandwich and all.
Maybe you, like Jared, will find a foot of extra room in your pants.
