I am an expert lunch box packer. I have found that creating a lunch box menu is the best way to ensure that my guys like their meals and I have the right foods on hand each day. So every Sunday night, I gather my guys and we come up with a dinner menu AND a lunch box menu as a way to make sure we are all on the same page.
While sandwiches are a frequent addition to our lunch boxes, sometimes we have to shake things up. In place of a standard sandwich, my guys love to eat Salami & Cheese Skewers.
I’ll admit that these first showed up when I was out of bread. I needed a lunch option that would give my guys the protein they needed but would still work in a lunch box. Now, my guys ask for me to make these on a regular basis.
While the skewers are super simple to make, the key to these is using quality meat and cheeses. There’s no bread to hide a low quality meat/cheese so you have to go with the good stuff! That means it’s time to pull out the Tillamook Cheese.
I like to offer my guys a couple of different flavors of cheese with their meat. Thankfully, Tillamook Cheese is available in several varieties at Publix. I grab a couple of flavors and cut into chunks and skewer with some hard salami. The final touch is a sweet cherry tomato at the end of the skewer.
