Roasted Turk’y with Jalapeño Slaw #UnrealDeli

I received samples from Unreal Deli to review. I am under no further obligation. All opinions are my own.

Roasted Turk’y with Jalapeño Slaw adds a touch of spice to delicious vegetable based lunch meat. Topped with avocado and spinach to balance out the flavor. Serve with a vegan bun if desired.
One of my first jobs was working in a New York style deli where I sliced and served hundreds of corned beef, pastrami, turkey and more meat sandwiches. At that time, there were no vegan options available for lunch except for salad. Vegetarians had egg salad for sandwiches.
Fast forward 30 years and several delis later, I’ve seen the increased demand for vegetable based meat options. Presently I work at a women’s college where we have a about a 20 percent vegan and vegetarian combined student base.
There are several vegetable and grain based luncheon meat alternatives on the market. I’ve tried a few but hadn’t found one that I truly enjoyed.
When I was approached by Unreal Deli, I was eager to give their versions a try.

I found that Unreal Deli Roasted Turk’y has the taste of deli turkey in a light textured slice. Paired with my spicy slaw, spinach and avocado, it made a delicious sandwich. Of course a toasted brioche bun held it all together.
