It is a rainbow of colors when you prepare and also when you eat! Its an artistic pleasure to see so many different colors in one item. Experts say that having a meal that represents a rainbow is best for your skin and immunity. This sandwich is my daughter’s favorite and it lights up her eyes whenever this is her lunch companion. Her friends get attracted by the colors in the sandwich as well as the fragrance of olive oil that greets you when you open the packed sandwich to eat! Definitely a healthy and colorful way to lose weight and at the same time satisfying to tastebuds too!
