Boar’s Head Deli Meats

              It’s probably a little odd for me to write about meat since I eat so little of it.  However, I do eat turkey and chicken and it’s nearly always from Boar’s Head.  They have a large variety of flavors that I can get cut to the thickness I want at either the Cermak Fresh Market or Sendik’s Food Market deli counters.  Every flavor is gluten-free.
                The way I use the meats is usually in sandwiches, but I have also had them in salads and on top of pizzas.  For more variety on how to use the meats, the Boar’s Head website (boarshead.com) has a great deal of recipes to choose from.  You can even break the listings down to the difficulty level of the recipe or how long it takes to make.
                With so many different flavors, there really is one for everyone.  I have a tendency to go towards the more bold such as the Salsalito Roasted Turkey and the Chipotle Chicken.  However, as I was looking at the different flavor options, I noticed a Tuscan Brand Roasted Turkey that might be interesting to try.  I’ll have to see if I can find that one in our local stores as I have never looked for it before. 
              Aside from the recipes, the Boar’s Head website lists all their available flavors along with the benefits of each one. Some are certified as heart healthy while others are categorized as having lower sodium. Also included are the nutrition facts and a short back story, including ingredients, about each flavor. With all this information, it’s easy to decide whether or not a flavor is right for you.
