What to order at Subway

Best bet: Salad bowl, or 6-inch on multigrain loaded with vegetables

Bread

  • 6-inch rather than footlong
  • Hearty multigrain or 9-grain wheat over white
  • Or skip it — lettuce wrap or salad bowl

Protein

  • Oven-roasted chicken, turkey breast, roast beef, ham
  • Grilled chicken where available

Vegetables

  • Load up — lettuce, spinach, tomato, onion, cucumber, peppers, olives, pickles

Sauces

  • Go easy on sweet onion and honey mustard
  • Mustard or a light vinaigrette works better

Drinks

  • Water
  • Unsweetened iced tea
