Spring is here and we are going to try to be outside as much as we can. But of course that means we may have to eat while out. To save money and eat healthy, we are going to try to pack lunches as much as we can. Arnold/Brownberry/Oroweat Breads wants to help by encouraging healthy eating any time of the day. Their bread isn’t just for toasting in the morning (though it’s really good with jam or peanut butter!) Their sliced breads are perfect for lunches on the go and packed with nutrition!
Arnold/Brownberry/Oroweat Breads include whole grains and are high in fiber, and their Sandwich Thins have officially been endorsed by Weight Watchers.
My daughter’s aren’t as adventurous with sandwiches, they enjoy Peanut Butter and Jelly or Turkey Sandwiches but I like to add more to my sandwich, especially crunchy items! This recipe for on the go Finger Sandwiches sounds so good and I can’t wait to make some the next time we head out for the day.

I love Arnold Breads and buy them every time they are on sale and freeze them — I like the way the sandwich pictured looks with sprouts. I have never used them but they must be very good. Crunchy.
Never heard of this bread before. I should keep an eye out on my next grocery trip.
