How To Eat Well At Subway & Healthy Alternatives

Ever since the opening of Subway in the Aberdeen Business School we have been extremely busy since day one proving to be one of the most popular catering outlets with both students and staff across the university!

For those of us who may be more health conscious particularly with summer just around the corner (did we mention Subway will be open all summer?! Yes you heard right!) this does not mean you have to give up eating in your favorite subs! Below we have some healthy alternatives for the next time you order-

Go Carb Free and Choose A Salad- Why not take your favorite subway fillings and cut out the bread for some fresh vegetables and get a salad! With the variety of options you can create huge ranges of flavors to suit any and all tastes. This is a great work day lunch you won't get bored quickly!!

Choose 9 Grain Wheat Bread- For a healthier bread alternative but still full of flavor this 9 grain option packed with fiber and nutrients is a great substitute over white bread.

Or Choose Flatbread!- If you are looking for a less calorific and lighter lunch the flatbread options is a perfect alternative.

Choose White Protein Over Red Meat- Opting for more leaner meats such as turkey or chicken over more fatty red meats will allow you to cut back on the calories and cholesterol.

Cut Back On The Extras Such As Cheese and Sauces- Another small but very useful tip if you are trying to make your subway more healthy is to cut out the cheese and sauces. If however you cannot be without your sauces simply choose a lighter options such as mustard.

Choose As Many Vegetables As Possible- Take this opportunity to get as much of your five a day as you can, there are a wide variety of vegetables on hand to choose from to pack your subway, flatbread or salad full of key minerals and nutrients!

Go For A Healthier Side Order- Rather than ordering a footlong sub why not get a six inch and add a more nutritious side such as baked crisps as opposed to fried or soup?

We have a variety of offers at Subway throughout the week so be sure to keep a look out for them both at the outlet and online to grab a deal!
