Introduction

This is a whole wheat version of the classic. I wanted a high carb version to give good energy for a training run, but still emphasized on authentic, quality ingredients. Feel free to add broccoli or other vegetables to enhance this delicious lunch. This is a whole wheat version of the classic.
