It’s finally here– the summertime! These are the days we look forward to all year. Sun-filled afternoons, pool parties, and time to relax with the people who mean the most to us. But, to make everything perfect, we need to have a fridge stocked with great food for an easy barbecue or last-minute picnic, and plenty of snacks for when friends stop by!
Down the Shore
Time to pack up and head down the shore! Many of us are getting ready for our annual migration to the sandy beaches and sunshine. If you want to spend your time at the beach and not stand in line in a crowded grocery store when you get there, stop at Sam’s before heading down the shore.
Order some of our famous hoagies and freshly made salads at the deli and you’ll have a delicious lunch when you arrive at the beach. Don’t forget to add our high-quality sliced deli meats, cheeses, and fresh rolls to your list, too. You can whip up a delicious sandwich whenever hunger hits and you won’t be roaming around the boardwalk looking for a good quality lunch. Avoid the crowded restaurants with our frozen line of entrees, just reheat and eat!
Don’t forget our crowd-pleaser tomato pies, too. Our tomato pies are the perfect thing to pair with your after-the-beach cocktail.
Remember to stock up at Sam’s on your way down the shore and you’ll have more time to enjoy the shore and avoid the shore’s grocery store!
Spice it up
“Spice up your life- aahhhh!” – Spice Girls
We couldn’t agree with the Spice Girls more- we can all spice up our life a bit! So, we now offer 4 flavors in our Dip Mix collection :
- Creamy Dill
- Golden Goddess
- Ranch
- French Onion
Here are some creative ways to spice it up this summer!
Dips
Stir up some dips and keep in the fridge so you can quickly enjoy the summer’s freshest veggies or pair them with your favorite chip
Marinade
Take some plain yogurt or sour cream and mix with any of your favorite mix and you have a great marinade for chicken that keeps your meat juicy and full of flavor.
Salads
Add spice to your summer pasta and potato salads.
Sandwiches
Make your own flavored mayo- simply add the mix to some mayo and spread on a fresh Sam’s roll.
Eggs
Try your favorite mix sprinkled in scrambled eggs for a morning pick-me-up. And, sprinkle on hard-boiled eggs or try in your deviled egg recipe for a new kick.
