Now that we’re just about halfway through March, I’m really getting the itch for spring.
Warmer weather, flowers starting to bloom, and the crisp air carrying a hint of promise that winter is starting to fade.
Now, I really can’t complain, because we’ve had such a mild winter here in the Midwest. It was in the 60s and close to 70 several days in February, and even now, it’s not as cold as it could be. And snow? We’re lucky that we missed most of the heavy snow in Chicago this year. And that’s just fine by me.
Because it’s been so mild this winter, I’ve had spring on the brain even longer than usual. The warm days in February made me want to break out my flip flops (which some people did!), relax with a cold drink, and dream of the hot, summer days. Of course I didn’t go that far, but it did get me thinking of spring and summer.
The warmer weather and promise of spring also got me thinking about lighter meals that are inspired by the season. After all, I am a food blogger, so I love incorporating the season into food.
When I was shopping at Walmart last week, I stumbled upon the perfect products to create a light and fresh lunch or dinner for the season. Pepperidge Farm® bread is a key component into making a sandwich fresh and delicious. Their bread includes a strong heritage, is authentic, and has a baker’s touch. It’s also double-wrapped for freshness, which is perfect for keeping the bread longer. Pepperidge Farm Whole Grain Oatmeal is a favorite of mine, so that made its way into my cart.
Next comes Hillshire Farm® Thin Sliced Honey Ham. It contains no artificial flavors and no by-products. Their ham is slow roasted for hours, which is what makes it better than other lunch meats.
And then there’s Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise. In my opinion, no sandwich is complete without it! You can use Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise on the outside of your bread for the perfectly crisp grilled cheese. You can also add more flavor to your sandwich by combining Hellman’s® with other flavors, such as soy, maple, or wasabi. The possibilities are endless!
After stocking up on a few more items, I headed home to make the most delicious spring-inspired sandwich.
