Green eggs and ham anyone?

I wanted to share a recipe from my new book The Soccer Mom weight loss program! It's a fun and nutritious sandwich that even the fussiest of kids will eat! The added bonus is that it's fun and nutritious for Mom (and Dad) too! Loaded with protein and healthy Omega's, it will keep you going and feeling energized all through the afternoon.
