The following giveaway is open to Canada only.
Sometimes a successful lunch means you have to think outside the box. Everyone tires of the same old boring sandwiches for lunchtime, so why not mix it up a bit, get creative, allow yourself to be inspired by some of your favourite products. When we hit a lunchtime slump in this house, I often start thinking about how I can make mealtime more fun for everyone. Here’s one of my new favourite tricks using San Daniele® Mortadella and a beautiful focaccia bread. We create Mini Mortadella Sandwich Bites!
The star of the show is the San Daniele Mortadella, this deli meat is gently prepared and cooked to savoury perfection using the finest ingredients available and their time-honoured Italian recipe. It’s baked slowly to create just the right balance of subtle flavour and traditional taste. Just one taste and you can tell this deli meat is made with the care and attention San Daniele® is known for. I pair it with Focaccia bread. Focaccia is a dense, flat oven-baked Italian bread quite similar in texture to pizza dough. It’s rich in flavour and wonderful when topped with olive oil and dried herbs.
Here’s the very simple way to create your very own Mortadella Sandwich Bites:
Ingredients:
- 1 package San Daniele Mortadella
- Butter – softened
- Dijon mustard
- Focaccia Bread (you can make your own or do what I did and pick up a lovely loaf at the grocery store)
- Long fancy toothpicks
Directions:
- Cut your focaccia bread into small squares.
- Cut each square in half, creating a top and bottom.
- Prep the bread by spreading one side lightly with butter, the other side with a dab of Dijon.
- Slice your San Daniele Mortadella into strips and heat gently in a skillet.
- Fold San Daniele Mortadella strips onto the focaccia bread and secure with your long toothpick
- Enjoy!
- Insider Tip: Want to send these in the lunch box? Simply skip the heating step!
Here’s what I like about San Daniele Mortadella:
- It uses only the best cuts of Pork.
- Mortadella has its characteristic white pieces of fat. However, it does not contain saturated fats or cholesterol.
- It does not contain any fillers or artificial colours so I feel great giving it to my family.

I grew up on San Danielle Mortadella sandwiches for lunch, and my son loved getting a fresh sandwich put together at the deli on our way to school. We’ve since moved away from the city and don’t have that pleasure anymore, but we still find our favorite brand in-store!
