We added lots of great items this week! From Uncle Ben’s, we added two varieties of rice – Mexican fiesta and brown whole-grain. Both are great quick and easy to make sides that elevate the flavors of your dishes without the added labor. For your bread bowl needs, try the mini French boule bread from Vie De France. This bread is small and round in size, with lattice cuts along the top. Simply hollow out the center for a delicious bread bowl to serve your soups, chowders, and stews in.

From Sweet Source, we added a wide array of different sweet and delectable desserts for all your dessert needs. The New York style cheesecake is a creamy vanilla cheesecake baked on a buttery graham cracker crust. It’s delicious enough to serve as is but has the capability to be paired with whatever signature toppings you desire, and comes pre-sliced for ease and consistency. The tiramisu is a perfect blend of Italian ladyfingers soaked in espresso, topped with mascarpone cheese and a dusting of cocoa. Coming in a operator-friendly fold down tray for convenience, serve in the pre-sliced squares as is or get creative and use it for unique desserts and parfaits. The brownies are a rich fudge brownie made with real butter and chocolate. Tasty enough to serve as is in pre-sliced squares, or serve it up a la mode style.

This dessert is also pre-sliced for low labor and consistency.

For takeout containers, we added a black hinged micro container from Empress. This takeout box comes with 3 separate compartments for food separation and to prevent sauces and flavors from mixing, and is a common medium 8″x8″x3″ size for frequent use. We also received fruit cups. Try the diced peaches cup submerged in fruit juice, fruit pear cup, or orange mandarin fruit bowl. From Milano, we have their grated parmesan cheese. This is great for adding to a sauce or sprinkling on top of pasta dishes. We also added Stouffer’s alfredo sauce, which is a blend of Italian-style hard cheeses combined with cream to create a rich, flavorful alfredo sauce. It is gluten-free, has no preservatives and has a good source of calcium.

If you’re looking for a sweet breakfast/brunch item, try the chocolate-filled croissants from Savor. These croissants are filled with a chocolatey hazelnut filling, topped with chocolate shavings and are ready to bake with an easy freezer to oven application. From Pierce Chicken, we added 6-ounce breaded chicken breast fillets. These southern-style fillets have simple ready to cook instructions, and have a crunchy golden exterior for visually-appealing dishes.

Biscuits are on a top tier in the comfort food category. This quick bread is commonly baked in rounds and served as a side, often with another top tier comfort food – fried chicken. Biscuits are popular as a savory breakfast bread. And of course served with a classic baked bean dinner warm biscuits are a must (if you don’t have Brown Bread at your finger tips that is.) However, there’s a lot of untapped opportunity for restaurants and food operations using biscuits. The standard biscuit dough can be manipulated and altered from its traditional form to create fun biscuit dough based diversions from the norm. One of my favorites is the griddle biscuit; slightly flatten and cook in a cast iron pan with a healthy amount of butter. The big question is – what will you create?
