Step Away Slowly From the Italian Shorti. There Are Healthy Options at Wawa
Wawa is not the first place you think of for healthy eating but those options exist, writes Amy Von Sydow Green for phillymag.com.
Here’s some healthy possibilities, though choices may vary depending on availability.
Breakfast
The healthiest breakfast sandwich is an egg white omelet sandwich with avocado on whole wheat.
It fills you up, but gives you fiber, protein, iron and calcium
Coffee
Wawa Reserve Winter Blend. Any size. Add milk or cream but stay away from the high sugar drinks.
LunchOven roasted turkey Shorti hoagie. The Shorti is a good lunch size. Turkey and swiss cheese give protein or even skip the cheese. Honey mustard and hot peppers add flavor and you can add veggies.
Vegetarian option
A: Veggie Shorti on wheat. Swap the wheat roll to an original Shorti roll. Add cherry pepper relish for flavor. Feel free to add a side of black beans for energy and fiber.
Dinner
Roasted veggie, black bean and rice burrito. Black beans give fiber, protein, magnesium and potassium. Add avocado for mono-saturated fats. For flavor, add cheese, salsa, jalapeno peppers and sriracha sauce.
Snacks
Apple peanut butter dipper
The baby carrot snack bag and two hard-boiled eggs.
Cottage cheese and pineapple
Salami-wrapped mozzarella cheese
RXBar or Kind bar.
