Brazi Bites got its start by producing a gluten-free version of a popular Brazilian cheese bread and it is now introducing frozen empanada snacks that also cater to the same audience. The all-new gluten-free empanadas are set to be launched in Chicken & Cheese, Beef & Black Bean, Black Bean & Cheddar and Chickpea Veggie varieties that contain eight grams of protein per serving and no soy or artificial ingredients. From frozen, the empanadas can be baked in the oven until the savory pastry turnovers become crispy and ready to eat.
These ready-to-bake breaded products from Brazi Bites help to satisfy the demand for mainstream snacks that are not just free from gluten but also globally inspired and packed with protein.
