Building 3–4 sandwiches after reading the flyer cuts waste and midweek impulse buys.

Ingredients

1 sliced loaf or baguettes
Protein (ham, chicken, tuna, cheese)
Vegetables (lettuce, tomato, cucumber)
Condiments
Bags or containers for the fridge

Directions

Pick the cheapest bread and protein in this week’s flyer.
Assemble sandwiches without watery toppings (add tomato in the morning).
Pack and label for Monday–Thursday.
Vary one topping so lunches don’t feel identical.
