Top 10 Guilty Restaurant Pleasures

Smart Indulgence #10: Savory sub sandwich

Hot pastrami, Swiss cheese, and spicy mustard create a trio of robust flavors unmatched by any lower-calorie sub. Best part is, the damage is minimal. On the calorie continuum, Swiss trounces both cheddar and American, and the spicy mustard is a leaner, and more flavorful, alternative to mayonnaise. The only drawback is salt. Because it’s brined, pastrami is high in sodium. It’s totally worth the indulgence; just don’t eat it every day.
