This is my new go-to sandwich: cream cheese, some hard cheese, peppers, red onion, and alfalfa sprouts. Sometimes I add avocado. I came out of the hospital with a hankering for, of all things, the sprouts. I have been eating this sandwich fairly faithfully since I got out of hospital.
It's fairly low in sodium (the only value I don't know in this case is the bread, which is a sourdough from Cobs), but I used cream cheese (Island Farms brand, as it was the lowest in sodium) with 50mg/tbsp and I used a smoked cheddar purchased from Costco that, for a serving of 30g, has 8% of my sodium intake for the day in it. I am pretty much done with deli meat. There are some lower sodium brands of deli meats, but I have decided to stay away from the stuff as much as possible because I know they're full of chemicals etc.
But oh, a pastrami sandwich with a huge dill pickle would go down really, really really well right now...

That looks so good!
I'm watching my cholesterol these days so deli meat is out for me too. I don't really care about that too much, but I sure miss cheese!
