Ingredients
- 2 pieces Whole grain sandwich rolls
- 4 slices Prosciutto
- 2 tablespoons Low-fat cream cheese
- 1 cup Arugula leaves
- 1 medium Tomato
- 0.5 medium Cucumber
- 0.25 small Red onion
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.12 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Slice the whole grain sandwich rolls open horizontally, being careful not to cut all the way through, and lay them flat.
Step 2
Spread 1 tablespoon of low-fat cream cheese evenly on the inside of each sandwich roll.
Step 3
Rinse the arugula leaves and pat dry. Set aside.
Step 4
Slice the tomato into thin slices, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 5
Peel the cucumber if desired, and slice it into thin rounds.
Step 6
Thinly slice the red onion. You will only need about 1/4 of a small red onion for both sandwiches.
Step 7
Lay 2 slices of prosciutto on the bottom half of each sandwich roll.
Step 8
Top the prosciutto with a generous layer of arugula leaves on each sandwich.
Step 9
Arrange the tomato slices evenly over the arugula.
Step 10
Add cucumber slices evenly to each sandwich, following with a few rings of sliced red onion.
Step 11
Drizzle each sandwich with 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice.
Step 12
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the vegetables on both sandwiches.
Step 13
Close each sandwich by folding the tops of the rolls over the filled halves.
Step 14
Cut each sandwich on a diagonal, if desired, and serve immediately.
