D.I.Y open faced sandwiches using healthy artisanal bread from Swissbake.

I absolutely love bread and always have a few varieties in my pantry ready for whenever I need to whip up quick meals.

The Abend Brot evening bread by Swissbake is a nutritional concept by Dr Pepe that’s based on how the human body processes different food groups, according to the time of the day. The whole idea is to optimise the balance of insulin through a fixed timing for consumption, motivating the body to intensify caloric reduction in the evening.

I’ve come up with two simple open sandwiches on how you can consume this magical bread with extraordinarily high protein of 24.5% and low carbohydrate content of only 10.5%.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, hence I lightly toasted the bread adding on a peanut butter spread at the bottom topped with sliced bananas, chia seeds, and then drizzled with honey. Something easy and delicious to kick start your day.

If you are feeling a little bit peckish this is a great classic open sandwich for quick lunches (or dinner). I used the NYC bagel cream cheese spread topped with fresh Norwegian smoked salmon, thinly sliced red onion and some dill with salt and pepper
