Heart UK has revealed one of the best lunch sandwiches those with high cholesterol can enjoy – cheese and walnut butties.<\/p>\n

To make the sarnie, you need two slices of wholemeal, granary or rye bread, 30g low-fat cheese spread, three finely chopped walnuts, a finely diced quarter stick of celery and black pepper.<\/p>\n

The cheese should be spread on both slices of bread, and one side should be seasoned with the pepper, with a sprinkle the walnuts on top.<\/p>\n

Celery can then be added before the other slice of bread is placed on top of the other to make a sandwich.<\/p>\n
