Can Anyone Help With Sandwich Filler Ideas For Someone On A Special Diet?

My husband suffers from gout, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. He loves his sandwiches but I am running out of ideas to keep them interesting. He has to avoid cheese, processed meats, most fish except salmon and tuna, turkey and anything with a rich sauce. I would be really grateful if other people on a similar diet could share some of their ideas with me.

Think about putting him on a low-carb diet and cut out the bread. Chicken, and all the good beef he can eat, plus salads with tuna or eggs topped on it.
Make sandwitches with slices of apple.
maybe scramble up some eggwhites… will definitely help out with the cholesterol problem (no fat)…. natural peanut butter & sugar free jelly works too.
Clean living has a recipe this issue for dill slamon rolls ups. they use wheat roll ups instead of bread and flaked salmon with a light dill sauce
Maybe you could try vegetarian lunch “meat”? Some of it is pretty decent. And you didn’t mention he couldn’t have chicken, so a chicken salad sandwich is always yummy.
How about tuna salad, egg salad, baked chicken, or just a nice tomato and lettuce sandwich. A turkey sandwich with pickles and shredded cabbage, or even a peanut butter and banana sandwich (it’s really good!). You can put just about anything in a sandwich, just use your imagination and whatever you have around.
Use alfalfa sprouts as an item on the sandwich to add new texture and flavor. They are very good for you!!
I love egg salad with chopped up olives in it! Yum.
take sliced turkey or ham and put it between 2 leaves of lettuce. for dessert take a cake mix and only add 12oz. can of diet coke or 7 up. mix it and bake
How about salmon pate and cucumber? I have it most days and it is great-I almost forget that it is healthy! Just make sure the pate is within the right ssell by date or else youll be in the loo all night!
First off, if you’d go to a book store or health food store & buy
some reading material on how Garlic and herbs, lower the
blood pressure, etc. because the More Knowledge You have,
the Better You Can Understand those illnesses.
Since you did not say, if your husband is Over-weight, a person
cannot determine, just how to answer that question. Weight plays
a large part in the “increase / decrease” of the blood pressure.
Drinking plenty of fluids, will secrete cholesterol from the body,
as it does any “unhealthy substance”.
You can get on the internet, and seek answers to: What is:
Gout / Blood Pressure / Cholesterol….
Go to the Library, & get reading materials on Health & Prevention /
or just Health Maintenance.
Also, one of the best things, you can do, when an individual has
Dietary Problems, is CONSULT A DIETICIAN, AT THE LOCAL
HOSPITAL…OR / AND NURSING HOME.
This is a Service, which a Hospital is Supposed to do…a duty to
the Public.
About the sandwiches. If you use a Grain Type bread, it is More
Healthy, than any White / Wheat Bread. I run a diner & I use
Only a 9-grain bread.
Try making Salmon Patties….Baked, covered with a lid to keep the
moisture in…moderate heat til done. Tuna can be done the same
way.
There is such a thing as a Ground Turkey Patty. too. You can
ground it thru a food processor, and then add anything to make
a patty…and slowly fry it.
I’ve heard that “rubbing peanut oil” on areas of gout will help the
pain…for it is the joints that have pain…and must be ”kept oiled-
kept fed”.
Tuna / Salmon / and ground meats of any kind, can be made into
a nice looking “meatloaf” look.
If you’ll check at the Health food store, as for the recipe books,
put out by Loma Linda Foods…they are Vegetarian Recipes,
mostly without Meat Products. Very Healthy.
There is also…a very great Product, called, “Aloe Vera Gel”, found
in Health Food Stores…and believe it or not ” it has the Power to
heal any part of the Lining of the Inside of the Body” !!
(By the way, should anyone have ulcers, try this: Put 5 pods of
Whole Okra in 3 pints water…boil, til the water is slimey…drink
1/2 cup 3 times a day, for 30 to 40 days…zap, no ulcer, no more).
At least, I’ve found this to be so, and I have “boiled the Okra” and
given it to the people to drink…and it healed their aches & pains.
I have to ”add a bit of salt / salt substitute, when I have need of
using the Okra Juice, this way”.
When I make Vegetable Soups I always add lots of Chopped
Okra to the Fixings.
Hope this helps your situation. (email me any time for a chat). TF
what about air??
1) Roasted red peppers with chicken and red onions, with some balsamic vinegar if it’s too dry
2) Salmon or mackeral ‘burgers’ (fish, egg, and cracker made into a patty and cooked up)
3) Portabellas w/ fresh sliced tomatoes and green lettuce
Three things to get you going
well, its a difficult one, but i love sandwiches and i prefer tune peper and red onions
grapefruit? lol. pickles, thin cut deli turkey. lettuce, bean sprouts.
Motor car manuals are too formulaic. I’d change the oil – according to their specifications. But I’d do it at one half of their suggested mileage. Only costs you a few dollars, and can’t do anything but good.
