Taco-Inspired Pastas

Namaste Foods' Taco Pasta Dinner Adds Mexican Flavor to an Italian Classic

— March 25, 2016 — Lifestyle
The gluten-free Taco Pasta Dinner from Namaste Foods provides a quick and easy base that can be enhanced with the chef's choice of additional ingredients. The pasta dinner kit is made with brown rice pasta and flavored with ingredients like tomato powder, paprika, garlic and oregano, among others. To round out the Mexican-inspired dish with a few pantry staples, Namaste Foods suggests adding diced green peppers, tomatoes and sauce to make it an even more satisfying main or side dish.

In addition to appealing to those who avoid gluten, the boxed product is vegan, non-GMO, Kosher and free from the top allergens. The product is also made without the use of artificial colors, flavors and preservatives.

Other meals in this same product family from Namaste Foods include dinner kits like Say Cheez and Pasta Primavera.
Trend Themes
1. Gluten-free Meal Kits - Opportunity to expand gluten-free meal kit options with unique and diverse flavor profiles.
2. Vegan Pantry Staples - Developing and marketing vegan pantry staples to add to popular meal kits could increase demand.
3. Allergen-free Meal Kits - Opportunity to tap into growing demand for allergen-free meal kits with versatile and customizable options.
Industry Implications
1. Food Manufacturing - Manufacturers can innovate and differentiate their products by offering unique and diverse flavor profiles.
2. Grocery Retail - Grocery stores can expand their product offerings by carrying vegan pantry staples that can be added to popular meal kits.
3. Meal Kit Delivery - Increasing demand for allergen-free meal kits highlights opportunities for meal kit delivery services to offer customizable options.
