Microwaveable Mini Breakfasts

Hormel Black Label Breakfast Combos Pair Pancakes with Bacon & Syrup

To support those who are looking for quality, convenient breakfasts that are easy to prepare, Hormel is introducing Hormel Black Label Oven-Baked Egg Bites and Hormel Black Label Breakfast Combos. The latter appeals to consumers who are looking for protein-rich breakfasts but don't necessarily want to eat eggs, as these packs combine strips of bacon or sausage patties with mini pancakes and a cup of maple syrup.

Both of the Black Label Breakfast Combos are packaged in microwaveable plastic trays that can be quickly heated and enjoyed. While there are plenty of on-the-go breakfast items that can be eaten without being heated, these ones provide the comfort of a warm meal.

For those who prefer to get their protein from cage-free eggs, the Black Label Oven-Baked Egg Bites share up to 16 grams of protein.
