time to celebr te ith a p rty.

p rtie - for children nd adul

commemor te turkey month be­
ca e currently th t' the num-
ber one wa turkey
con umed- a part of
sandwich, ccounting for 44 per­
cent.
One of the nice t thing bout
h ving thi type of party is that
you don't have to do any cook­
ing. All you have to do i stop by
the deli ection of your grocery
tore and buy a few andwich
ma ings, including a v riety of
conveni nt turkey deli sUces,
from tur ey ham and turkey
pastrami to turkey bologna and
turkey breast. The more in­
gredients, the more creative the
gusts can be in assembling the
giant sandwich.
Set these turkey meats out on
a platter, along wi th some other
ingredien ts like provolone
cheese, lettuce, tomato and
onion. Whip together a quick
dre sing and have it handy, along
with a large load of French
bread. Add ome odas, chip
pretzels, pickles and some of the
latest music, and you'll have an
instant party kids and adults will
love.
Be certain to have the camera
handy to take photographs of the
work in progress, as well as
everyone standing proudly about
their finished product before
they dig into it.
Or, if you prefer, serve Turkey'
Deli Sandwich or Turkey Tortilla
Wrappers. They are equally fun
to do and just as delicious.
A "Build-A-Hoagie" party is a
terrific way to let kids say
"good-bye school; hello sum­
mer." And, the cook can
celebrate the ease and con­
venience of serving fully-cooked
turkey deli products, clearly
making meals "Fast and Fit."
