Farmwise is now venturing into the creation of frozen appetizers with a better-for-you twist, introducing consumers to options like Veggie Skins, a healthier take on classic potato skins that are packed with cheese and vegetables. The allergy-friendly appetizers are free from top allergens (eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat and soybeans) and can easily be prepared in the microwave.
Both varieties, Veggie Skins Cheese & Broccoli and Veggie Skins Cheese & Cauliflower, help to share five grams of protein per serving and offer a gluten-free way to start a meal or enhance it with a healthy side dish.
These new products add to Farmwise's innovative portfolio of vegetable-rich frozen foods like Cauliflower, Beans & Onion Veggie Rings, Chicken Veggie Nuggets and Veggie Fries.
