WeightWatchers Whole Grain Salmon Sandwiches Recipe

This salmon sandwich is a delicious contrast between the smoked fish and the savory buns. It’s a lunch or snack that has it all: valuable omega-3 fatty acids for the heart and circulatory system, complex carbohydrates for weight loss, plenty of fiber for a stable blood sugar level, and lots of magnesium for muscle and nerve function. You can serve this with extra herbs if you want: try, for example, fresh dill, which goes well with cucumber and salmon and can help the digestion.
