PB & Fruit Sandwich
Skip the sugary, processed jelly and make a whole-grain PB and fruit sandwich. Sliced bananas work well, but so do thinly sliced green apples, peaches, nectarines, or kiwis. Get creative. Be sure you choose whole-grain for a healthy sandwich. You should also go for natural peanut butter so you aren’t eating heavily processed trans fat or sugar.

Whole Grains
Whole grains are exactly as their name suggests; grains that are “whole,” in that they contain all parts of the grain. They are unprocessed, so the outer shell, also called the bran, remains intact, along with the germ and the endosperm, which is the main part of the grain.
