Marathon season. For some this means early morning boot camp M-W-F, an after-work run through the park T-Th, and the big weekend push to reach 5K, 10K, even 25K. A full fledged marathon is 26.2 miles or about 42.2K. So with eyes on that kind of prize, it takes some serious fuel to keep the body going.
For others, marathon season means watching an entire season of TV in a row. You are having a lazy day and get hooked after watching the pilot. Rather than spend too much time preparing a meal, you’re looking for comfort food that can be prepared quickly and easily.
No matter which kind of marathon you’ll participate in this fall, we’ve got a delicious line up of easy and flavorful meals that will keep your body fueled for miles, or cozy while you catch another episode. A delicious breakfast can make all the difference. Mom always said it was the most important meal of the day. And when it comes to fueling a workout or a run, she couldn’t have been more right. But don’t let us fool you into thinking these tasty meals have to be eaten in the early morning hours. Breakfast for dinner is both satisfying and delicious.
Our delectable Ham and Swiss Breakfast Sandwich is filled with smoky, sweet DI LUSSO® Brown Sugar Ham and Baby Swiss Cheese. The contrast of the crunchy baguette and the smooth over easy egg mixes beautifully in your mouth. The fragrant basil leaves add a fresh and peppery flavor that compliments each ingredient and every bite. It’s hard to improve upon a classic ham and cheese, but this one looks and tastes like a winner.
Wrap up your workout with protein in a delicious hand held package. Make these up ahead of time and they’ll be waiting for you whenever you’re ready.
It’s hard to beat the interesting and complex flavor combinations we enjoy so much in Thai food. A fragrant and flavorful mix of fresh herbs like cilantro and Thai basil paired with your favorite meats and the subtle crunch of fresh vegetables makes for a delicious start to a perfect meal. Our Thai Basil Wraps with DI LUSSO® Oven Roasted Chicken, a beautiful blend of all those fresh ingredients and the sweet heat of HOUSE OF TSANG® BANGKOK PADANG™ Peanut Sauce will make you fall in love with Thai all over again.
Make-ahead snacks mean more TV time, more deliciousness and less junk food. It’s OK, have at that bag of chips. We won’t tell. But when you see what we’ve got in store for your marathon menu, you’ll want to ‘train’ every weekend.
Fun to make and even more fun to eat, Stromboli Bread Sticks are as addictive as bingewatching. The crunchy-on-the-outside, warm-and-soft-on-the-inside breadstick dough spirals around a roll up of rich and flavorful DI LUSSO® Hard Salami or Italian Dry Salami, smooth and mild Provolone Cheese and Smoked Ham. They’re incredibly tasty on their own and even better dipped in marinara sauce.
When you’re ready to come up for air and dinner, these favorites can be whipped up in less time than it takes for delivery.
Moist and delicious DI LUSSO® Oven Roasted Chicken Breast, Habanero Jack Cheese and Roasted Red Pepper Strips are sandwiched between flour or whole wheat tortillas in our Chicken and Habanero Jack Quesadillas. There’s this wonderfully sweet taste that comes out when you heat a tortilla on a skillet. Crispy, delicate and light. It’s a perfect backdrop to the savory chicken breast, smoky-smooth red peppers and cheesy heat of the Habanero Jack. A spoon of sour cream and a sprig of cilantro on top will cool the heat with even more flavor. Dip in salsa and enjoy!
