Refrigerated Protein-Rich Meals

The New Bob Evans Farms 'Family Classics' Meals are Satisfying

— February 6, 2018 — Lifestyle
The Bob Evans Farms 'Family Classics' meals have been announced by the brand as a new refrigerated food option that will satisfy consumer preferences for premium dishes that are quick to prepare.

Crafted with premium ingredients and free of artificial preservatives, the meals are ready to eat in minutes and feature ingredients that have a high protein level. This makes them a satisfying meal that won't have you craving additional food or snacks after consumption.

The Bob Evans Farms 'Family Classics' meals come in two new options including 'Creamy Chicken & Noodles' and 'Roasted Chicken Alfredo Pasta, which are reported to have over 16 grams of protein each. As consumers seek out health meal options that are readymade, we'll likely see the refrigerated meal sector expand to satisfy demand.
