Growers News:
NashPhilly: Have added a new item Soup, Broccoli and Cheese! This seems to be a popular soup in Tennessee, and after making it I can see why. It’s wholesome, filling and warms your soul after having a bowl. If you have sour dough bread on hand I highly recommend dunking it in your soup. Ingredients: Broccoli, onions, carrots, butter, flour, vegetable stock, heavy cream, cheddar cheese, thyme, garlic, bay leaf, black pepper, parsley, nutmeg and Himalayan sea salt. this is vegetarian, but it is not gluten free, other items still available. Minestrone Soup, New England Clam Chowder as well as Gnocchi with Roasted Garlic Marinara Sauce! Several other delicious prepared meal items in ‘Noodles, Pasta and Italian Sauces’ available this week: Beef and Cheese Lasagna Family Portion and Single Portion, Cajun Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo and Chicken Marsala and in ‘Seasonal Side Dishes’ Brussel Sprouts with Carmelized Onions and Bacon, Mashed Potatoes with sour cream and green onions. Watch for some new items coming soon!
