soon.
Frozen Items
Amy’s
Baked Ziti Bowl (9.5 ounces, suggested retail price: $4.29).
To their line of popular pasta dishes, Amy’s now adds a unique
one… pasta made from rice flour rather than the usual wheat
flour, along with organic peas and dairy-free, soy-based mozzarella
and ricotta cheezes, in Amy’s superb pasta sauce made from
vine ripened, slowly simmered organic tomatoes, extra virgin olive
oil and classic Italian herbs and spices. This light and tasty
bowl is non-dairy (vegan) and can be enjoyed by anyone looking
for a great-tasting pasta dish. No gluten ingredients added.
Dairy free. Vegan.
Amy’s Rice Crust Spinach Pizza (12 ounces,
suggested retail price: $4.29) Amy’s search for pizzas that
satisfy everyone’s needs goes on. Here is one that is not only
free of gluten ingredients, but can also be enjoyed by those who
do not eat dairy and by anyone looking for a unique, great-tasting
treat. The light tender rice crust is topped with a blend of nutritious
organic spinach and completely dairy-free, soy-based mozzarella and
ricotta cheezes, and of course Amy’s incomparable authentic
Italian pizza sauce made with organic sun-ripened tomatoes and Amy’s
special blend of herbs. No gluten ingredients added. Dairy
free. Vegan.
Amy’s
Vegetarian Breakfast Patties (8 ounces, suggested retail
price: $4.29) Whether for a leisurely, substantial
breakfast or a quick meal on the go, Amy’s Breakfast Patties
fit the bill. For those with time, one or two
of Amy’s Breakfast Patties added to the usual morning meal
will be just right. For those in a hurry, popping a breakfast patty
on a bun or toasted English muffin, with perhaps a slice of cheese,
will do the trick. Made with organic grains and
vegetables and just a hint of Italian “sausage” spicing,
Amy’s Breakfast Patties are high in protein and really delicious.
And of course, they can be eaten any time of the day, not just
for breakfast! Dairy free. Vegan.
Amy’s
Indian Paneer Tikka
(9.5 ounces, suggested retail price: $4.29) When
Amy’s Indian chef, Saroj, worked on this recipe, she created
her own authentic blend of spices (masala) instead of using a prepared
mix. Then she added the masala to a base of organic crushed tomatoes
and coconut milk, with soft, creamy cubes of Paneer (Indian cheese)
to produce a marvelously tasty, but not too hot, dish. Alongside
the Paneer Tikka are Aloo Palak (delicately spiced organic chopped
spinach and tender organic potatoes), and organic basmati rice flavored
with cumin and carrots.
Amy’s Indian Spinach Tofu Wrap (5.5 ounces,
suggested retail price: $2.29) Another delicious addition to Amy’s
growing line of home style Indian meals. Made with organic spinach
and tofu. Amy’s newest wrap is a quick and easy breakfast,
savory lunch or perfect for any time of day. Vegan.
Soups
Amy’s Thai Coconut Soup (14.1 ounces, suggested
retail price: $2.29)
Amy’s version of the traditional “Thom Kha Phak”,
so popular in Thai restaurants, combines sweet, smooth coconut milk
with gently warming Thai spices, organic tofu, lemongrass, shiitake
mushrooms, sweet potatoes and other organic vegetables. This delicate,
flavorful soup is a fine introduction to Thai cuisine.
Amy’s Tuscan Bean and Rice Soup (14.1
ounces, suggested retail price: $2.29)
This delicious soup is almost a stew, substantial and nourishing
like the pranzo (midday meal) eaten in Tuscany, Italy. Organic
barlotti beans, for which that region is noted, brown rice, and fresh
tasting organic vegetables make it a thoroughly satisfying meal.
Buon Appetito!
