“This sponsored post was written while participating in my partnership with Oscar Mayer and One2One Network, but as always, all opinions are my own. I received Deli Fresh BOLD coupons and other related items from Oscar Mayer/Kraft Foods.”
Spring has finally sprung, which already has me fantasizing about planting my garden next month. The thought of fresh sandwiches piled high with organic veggies picked from my own backyard has me dreaming about the warmer months ahead. In my opinion, nothing is more simple and satisfying than a fresh delicious sandwich on a hot summer day. Don’t you agree?
Sandwiches are exceptionally convenient, especially when the kids are home from school, always in and out of the house looking for something quick to eat, and the heat is blistering outside. The last thing you want to do is fire up the stove to cook lunch! With that being said, the same old favorite sandwich can become an unpleasing dreary meal, so I am forever looking for new unique flavor combinations to keep things fresh. Thanks to the Oscar Mayer brand recently expanding its Deli Fresh line of lunch meats with four new Deli Fresh BOLD flavors, I am able to easily spice up the ordinary timeless lunch dish with bold twists without blowing my budget. And because the Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh BOLD lunch meats are located in the refrigerated meat section, I can skip the long deli lines and save time at the grocery store too!
Ode to Spring
In celebration of spring, I created an original delicious (anyways I think it is) spin on the average turkey sandwich using the new Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh Italian Style Herb Turkey Breast, fresh veggies, fat reduced cheese, and a homemade low-fat spinach and artichoke Greek Yogurt vegetable spread! The sandwich is easy to make and is bursting with flavor! It is a simple, but sophisticated tasting twist on the same old boring Turkey between two slices of bread routine! Spice it up and give it a try!

Great blog, stick with it!
I love your low fat spinach spread!! It would be great by itself or on salad too! I love sandwiches. Your picture makes me hungry!!
The low fat spinach spread sounds awesome on this sandwich!! I’m trying the recipe this weekend!!
Thank you for the slimmed down spinach artichoke spread recipe. Greek yogurt is an amazingly versatile ingredient that I’ve been using more and more.
I love to add more flavor to any sandwich. Condiments are my meal savers, to be honest. Besides the herb deli turkey, your sandwich looks so appetizing with the spread! I love artichokes and any kind of dip or spread with artichoke in it, so your spread sounds perfect! I like how you added the spinach, carrot, red pepper, green onions and water chestnuts (which I love)! Also, provolone cheese is a must for me! That or Swiss! Thanks for sharing!
I think my boys would like to try the new Maple Honey Ham.
(TAKE A SANDWICH FROM ORDINARY TO BOLD- OSCAR MAYER DELI FRESH BOLD MEATS & ORIGINAL RECIPE!) I really like the sounds of this sandwich, just the picture of it is making me hungry.
so many great recipes. i love the dip and i think i will be making it some time this week. the sandwich sounds good to. love all the veggies in it. thanks.
Let me say first off ~ that the ODE TO SPRING BOLD TURKEY VEGGIE SANDWICH looks really yummy ~ AND to top it off ~ just reading the recipe – it would appear that it also manages to include generous amounts of ALL of the food groups daily recommended for a healthy diet. (And I also LOVE the addition of the cucumber slices!)
The Skinny Spinach and Artichoke Greek Yogurt Vegetable Spread Recipe sounds all around fabulous – and I can’t wait to make / try it. I can imagine using it in many different ways – like as a (dipping) sauce for my special Greek style LAMB meatballs and burgers – but it is genuis as a sandwich spread with cold cuts / cheese and veggies (like a salad on your sandwich.)
As for the Oscar Meyer “Deli Fresh” cold cuts ~ they must be quite new indeed ~ as I haven’t seen the in the market before. But I’ll keep an eye out of them. They sound really good – especially the Italian Style Herb Turkey Breast and the Chipotle Seasoned Chicken Breast. Thanks!
Wow, that is seriously a great looking sandwich. I am such a sucker for bread that has the pretties (grains and seeds) on top. I will definitely look for this bread next trip to the supermarket.
The Italian Style Herb Turkey Breast would be good to try. I really want to try the Skinny Spinach and Artichoke Greek Yogurt Vegetable Spread Recipe. it looks delicious
I always buy the turkey. I eat it in sandwiches or salads or when I’m really lazy I just roll it and eat it.
I have never tried the flavored Oscar Meyer meats and I would love to try the Italian Herb flavor and make a sub sandwich for my whole family to have. I like that these have bold meat flavors and my nephew and Dad would love to try these in a sandwich.
Looks delicious! I like Oscar Mayer products
The vegetable spread looks wonderful. Thanks for the recipe.
Food art is so creative. I buy Oscar mayer deli meat a lot. Love the Skinny Spinach and Artichoke Greek spread. Great addition that makes any sandwich tastes that much better!
These all sound so good to me. I haven’t heard of the Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh Bold Meats yet – glad I did! I like my food to have lots of flavor, even without the condiments! I’m going to investigate the meat case more closely now!
Oh man the Cajun sounds good. I buy they regular Oscar Mayer turkey all the time. I haven’t seen all these other varieties. I have got to look for them. Plus the whole grain bread you used looks so good.
The spinach artichoke spread sounds delicious. We definitely eat a lot more sandwiches during spring and summer. I love their turkey.
i love the food art. it looks amazing. that is some talent. i also like the recipes and tried a few out. they were great. thanks.
WOW! That sandwich looks REALLY good! I’m going to try out the spinach dip for sure
That spread sounds divine! I’ve pinned to my food board and will have to make it. Thanks!
I actually always buy their deli meats! They are delicious. I will have to try this recipe next time I pick it up at the store.
I usually buy deli meat at the counter, but it is so expensive. I really like the Oscar Meyer brand so I will give it a try.
These all sound so delicious. I have had the the Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh Bold Meats , and am glad I did! I like my food to have lots of flavor, even without the condiments! I’m going to make these tasty sandwiches when we go to the lake.
I’m definitely going to have to try this out! Thank you!
These are really great sandwich recipes. I really like the one where you use the spinach dip, I never thought of that. Definitely going rethink what condiments I use on my next creation 🙂
This is the first I’ve heard of Deli Fresh bold for Oscar Mayer – they sound delish – and these sandwiches make them irresistible – I must try these!
I’ve got news for you. My husband would no doubt hug you and plant a big kiss on you if you made him this sandwich. I totally agree with you about fresh garden veggies! And your spread…what can I say delicious! The only thing that could make this any better would be serving it on my homemade country white bread.
