CHICKEN OR TURKEY BREAST LUNCHMEAT
I wanted to make my own because I try not eat most prepackaged foods. This has worked great for us. It is simple to make. It can be frozen after it is sliced with double wax paper between slices (single is okay double is just better if you freeze it for ease of seperation).

Steps:
- Cut chicken into cubes.
- Put the raw cubes into a food processor and pulse until it is small bits (*not mush).
- Add egg whites, salt and pepper.
- Add any other seasonings desired.
- Line a small loaf pan with foil and oil it.
- Pack meat into loaf pan.
- (At this point I sometimes add fresh ground black pepper or cayenne for peppered chicken, dry rub for BBQ is also great.).

- Time depends on size of loaf pan and thickness of meat.
- Cool.
- Refrigerate for a couple of hours before slicing (if possible).

DUTCH LOAF ( LUNCEON MEAT )
Found this recipe in a make your own groceries book. Since we haven't a clue what is in the lunchmeat we buy, this may help especially with knowing the sodium content. This recipe makes 2 loaves, one in which, you can make into a pickle and pimento loaf.

LUNCH IN A LOAF
My brother is in construction and needs an easy, high-protein, low mess lunch each day. I started making these for him in large batches and freezing them. He just takes one out of the freezer each morning and it's ready to eat by lunchtime!
