It about that time, it’s creeping up on twelve o’clock once again. That lunch whistle is about to blow and your tummy is grumbling so loud it’s causing your co-workers to stare. Try taming those hungry growls with some tasty and filling lunch time choices using Philadelphia cream cheese, all of which will keep your tummy happy and sound.
Ham and Herb – This sandwich provides a unique take on a classic lunchtime sandwich. Try a cheese or onion bagel for the ham and herb sandwich, and top with thinly sliced red onion and crisp bib lettuce leaves.
Terrific Tuna Melt - I love tuna melts, and this one takes the cake for me. The tanginess of the cream cheese really makes the flavors pop. The toasted flatbread is a great choice for a little extra crunch. You could substitute chicken for tuna as well, and top with fresh cucumber or tomato slices.
Tomato Bisque - This creamy and tasty soup tastes like a dream. Its mouthwatering aroma is enough to make you go back for seconds. Pack it in a thermos for work along with a hearty roll, or serve it with a buttery grilled cheese sandwich at home. It’s also good for those days when you feel a little under the weather.
Ham and Cheese Lettuce Wraps - Perfect for those of us watching our figure, these wraps with satisfy you without costing you in calories. Crisp lettuce is used instead of bread, and spread with 1/3 less fat Philly original. You can either use ham or turkey, and your favorite shredded cheese.
Waldorf Dip - When you think of dip you probably think of party or snack food, but I love taking this dip with me for lunch. I pack it with fresh apple slices, whole grain crackers, and toast points. You could make it a little chunkier too, by not cutting the apple and walnuts so fine and adding some grapes, then eat it between to bread slices for a sweet and tangy sandwich.
