I am not really a big fan of lunch meat in general. It almost never seems to resemble real meat and so much of it is full of nitrates and other junk. As much as I love a turkey sandwich and would like to pack them for my kids’ lunches once in a while I pretty much steer clear because of the health factor. Recently one of my favorite cooks that I follow on Instagram started posting the most delicious healthy plates of veggies and lunchmeat that she has for lunch and I asked her what kind it was. It looks so good! She said it’s Boar’s Head so I had to check it out. Boar’s Head makes a bunch of heart-healthy deli meats and I’m so excited that I can add this back into our menu without sacrificing good, healthy choices for my family.
Boar’s Head heart-healthy deli meats are available in many different varieties. If you like turkey, chicken, ham and even roast beef you’re in luck! I was most interested in some of the turkey meats but wow, the EverRoast Oven Roasted Chicken Breast looks so good! I would love to try that one. I’m actually working on a grocery list right now and Boar’s Head is on it! My kids like to take a sandwich once in a while for lunch and these meats are perfect for fast, easy lunches (three cheers from me on that one!) that are still healthy. Perfect!
Having a heart-healthy diet is important for a long, quality life. And who doesn’t want that? Heart disease runs in my family so although I freely admit I indulge the sweet tooth more often than I should, I always try to make good choices with the meals I feed my family.
I was impressed to find some great good-for-your-heart recipes from Boar’s Head, too. Their meat isn’t just for sandwiches! Check out this delicious Everroast Chicken Quinoa Pilaf. Doesn’t it look soooo good? I think my kids would gobble that right up, too.
If you’re looking for some new healthy meal ideas (who isn’t?!) be sure to look for Boar’s Head certified heart-healthy deli meats next time you’re in the grocery store.

Hi Lindsay, thanks for this idea, do these have the Nitrates , still? I have already tried them, about a year ago, but not fond of the chicken, but you may like it, I am more of a turkey fan. Thanks <,Jennifer Hope you and your family doing well!

Hi Jennifer! I think Boar’s Head makes certain varieties that are nitrate free. Maybe not all of them. I got some turkey today so we’ll see how we like it for lunches this week. Definitely sounds healthier than some other lunch meat on the market. All is well with us! Staying busy as usual. Hope you and your family are well, too!
