Pack something sweet and healthy for lunch. Pick up a 4 Lb Bag of California Navel Oranges to throw in everybody’s brown bag. They’re high in Vitamin C, which you need plenty of during this flu and cold season.
Shred up California Romaine Lettuce, cut some Pint Grape Tomatoes in half and add Texas Toast Croutons for light salad. Remember to grab Ken’s Salad Dressings to drizzle on top.
Here’s a suggestion for all you football fans…
Pick up a loaf of pumpernickel bread (or a bread that has a dark brown color) and make a sandwich using Domestic Cooked Ham and Great Lakes White American Cheese. After placing the other piece of bread on top of your sandwich, take a football cookie cutter to shape your sandwich into a football. Draw the lines of your “football sandwich” with Hellmann’s Mayonnaise or with Kraft Ranch Dressing. When we made our football sandwich we used a special trick. For the lines to come out evenly, we spooned a little bit of the Mayonnaise into a plastic bag and cut the corner off to use as a pastry bag. We laid our sandwich over a bed of some torn California Romaine Lettuce to make our “football field” along with Snyder’s Pretzels and Red Seedless Grapes on the side for some snacks.
If you want to stick to the football theme, Pepperoni looks an awful lot like the material of a football. Slice a thick piece of French Parisian Bread and cover it with your favorite cheese. Then add a layer of Wilson Sliced Pepperoni on top. Cut strips of Great Lakes White American Cheese into the shape of the stitches on a football. Melt it all together in the toaster.
Add something a little unusual to your bowl of Macaroni and Cheese. Cut up little pieces of Wilson Sliced Pepperoni. Or you could try adding some cut up Volpi Salami Chub.
