air fryer-optimized frozen appetizers

Lakeside Foods has broadened its offerings

Lakeside Foods expands its product range with two new additions — one of them is a line of canned organic beans and the other is a range of air fryer-optimized frozen appetizers.

Lakeside Foods' air fryer-optimized frozen appetizers include breaded green beans, pickles, and Wisconsin white cheddar cheese curds. These offerings are specifically designed to achieve a crisp texture when prepared in air fryers or conventional ovens. This innovation caters to the increasing popularity of at-home snack preparation and the rising demand for air fryer-friendly products, which are sought after for their ability to replicate fried textures with less oil.

Additionally, Lakeside Foods has expanded its canned goods with organic garbanzo and black beans, seasoned with Himalayan pink salt. These products aim to appeal to health-conscious shoppers seeking organic and minimally processed options.
