Being busy doesn’t have to mean dropping the home-cooked meals.
If there’s no time to hunt down the ingredients for mom’s recipe or you’re facing the classic “What should we have for dinner?” conundrum, drop by the Festival Foods deli section to pick up a Step by Step dinner kit. The recipes are easy and the ingredients fresh-made inside the store.
“It’s fun to get the children/young adults involved in the prep and cooking of these dinners,” said Matt Woller, deli manager. “Everything that you need for that meal is in the kits.”
Each one includes the number of servings and preparation time, along with easy instructions. The quickest to make are the Skillet Family Dinners. In just 15-20 minutes, a tasty meal like Italian Penne or Shrimp Alfredo is on the table. There are seven rotating varieties to choose from.
Busy families also know how helpful a slow cooker can be – Festival Foods makes it even easier with its Slow Cook Family Dinners. All the ingredients are ready for you, and the meal prepares itself in just 4-6 hours.
Eating for two is easier with the dinner kits specially measured for 2-3 people. These meals are ready in half an hour to an hour and there are up to 15 rotating choices to keep things fresh. Try the Baked Alfredo Shrimp Penne or the and Oven-Baked Chicken Fajitas.
The advantage of the Festival Foods Step by Step dinner kits is that a subscription isn’t required – they’re available for pick-up right in store during your normal grocery routine.
“If there is a kit that a guest likes and we don’t have it at the time, we can make a special for our guest the meal that they want,” said Woller.
