I have been bringing my lunch to work for the past ten years. Up until my blog, they usually consisted of lean pockets or microwaveable soups. Not only are my lunches now healthier and definitely more delicious, my blood pressure has dropped significantly since I traded the high sodium processed food for homemade lunches. The G.H.O.S.T. sandwich has become one of my favorite lunches to bring to work.
The five ingredients that begin with the letters spelling "ghost" gave this sandwich its name.
