Frozen Truffle Pastas

Evol's Frozen Pasta Dinner Turns Mac & Cheese Gourmet

— January 28, 2015 — Lifestyle
Mac & cheese and frozen foods are typically thought of as meals that are high in convenience and low in terms of nutrition, but Evol's frozen pasta dinner manages to strike a happy balance of both.

The Truffle Parmesan Mac & Cheese is made with tubetti pasta, a creamy cheese sauce and a crumble made from panko breadcrumbs. The dish is vegetarian, gluten-free and is loaded with 16 grams of protein. While whipping up a serving of mac & cheese isn't that hard to do on your own, putting together a truffle-infused pasta probably takes a lot more time and money. As well as providing you with a gourmet-inspired bowl of mac & cheese that's quick and easy to prepare at home, this frozen dinner meal is extremely affordable, priced at about $1.99 at supermarkets across the US.
Trend Themes
1. Gourmet Frozen Meals - There's an opportunity to innovate in the frozen meal industry by creating more gourmet options that are affordable and easy to prepare at home.
2. Healthy Frozen Foods - An increasing demand for convenient and healthy meals creates an opportunity to develop more frozen food options that are gluten-free and high in protein.
3. Truffle Flavors - The popularity of truffle-infused dishes creates room for innovation in the food industry by incorporating this ingredient into various meals.
Industry Implications
1. Frozen Food Industry - Frozen food companies can create and market gourmet frozen meals that appeal to a wider audience looking for convenience and affordable luxury.
2. Health Food Industry - The development and sale of healthy frozen meals is an area of opportunity for companies looking to tap into the growing demand for nutritious and convenient meals.
3. Specialty Food Industry - Incorporating unique flavors and ingredients into frozen meals can position companies in the specialty food market, catering to consumers seeking more adventurous eating experiences.
