✦ Enriched with calcium and iron
✦ Quick energy carbohydrate
✦ Convenient portable format
✦ Pairs well with protein fillings
Crusty white bread rolls are made from refined wheat flour and are enriched with calcium, iron, niacin, and thiamin by UK regulations. They are a higher glycaemic food due to low fibre, but provide useful carbohydrate energy and a convenient portable format for fillings.

Preparation note
Fill with protein-rich foods (egg, chicken, hummus, cheese, tuna) alongside salad to create a more balanced meal and moderate the glycaemic spike.
