Not Low Carb

The bread is pure carbs, the veggies are carbs, and using low-fat cheese increases the ratio of carbs to protein and fat considerably higher than if you'd used full-fat cheese. (Take out the fat, don't add any more protein, and what's left to fill the void but more carbs?) This is a low-FAT recipe, not a low-CARB one!

Vegetarian Reuben

Years ago I worked in a health food store while attending college. We served both meat and non-meat sandwiches and this was a favorite by both vegetarian and non-vegetarian customers. I love it and I know you will to!
