Kroger recently debuted two new varieties of Keystone Bar & Grill's Frozen Mac & Cheese entrees to cater to customers who enjoy the convenience of frozen dishes, but aren't willing to give up the taste and flavor of restaurant-quality meals.
The new Frozen Mac & Cheese entrees are designed to deliver the same taste and quality as the scratch-made dishes prepared at Keystone Bar & Grill restaurants. As a result, each dish is crafted from premium ingredients and packed with more than 20 grams of protein per serving. For added flavor, the frozen entrees come in a BBQ & Bacon variety that is made with Keystone's signature sweet and savory BBQ sauce, as well as a Buffalo Bleu version made with potent blue cheese crumbles. As Keystone founder founder Dan Cronican explains, "Our customers will immediately connect the unique flavors of the frozen version with their restaurant experience."
