Summer is here, and with summer comes fun family road trips! If you’re anything like me, I start getting tired of having to pick which fast food restaurant to eat at while trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Instead, my husband and I will often pack ourselves a picnic lunch filled with our favorite foods and fresh ingredients that will give us lasting energy throughout the day. To help you get started on your picnic lunch for the road, here are 10 amazingly nutritious and delicious sandwiches that will make every family member happy and satisfied.
