The Little Potato Co. unveiled two new additions to its product portfolio that will support weekday meal preparations without having to come up with an impromptu recipe. The potato products include the A Little Hot Honey Microwave Ready Kit and the A Little Garlic & Parmesan Oven or Grill Ready Kit, which are both seasoned and ready to be cooked. The products only need to be popped into the microwave, oven or grill, depending on the variety, and cooked accordingly to offer a freshly prepared side dish that doesn't skimp on flavor.

The new additions to The Little Potato Co. product portfolio are priced at $3.99 to $4.99 per tray, which each contains four servings. The products can be found in the produce department at major retailers in the US.
