From the Show Floor - ANC 2024

We were thrilled to introduce two new products at ANC this year: Ground Turkey Spaghetti Sauce and Ground Turkey Taco Filling, made with white and dark meat for a smart and nutritious alternative to ground beef in popular lunch recipes. Pre-seasoned and sold frozen, they minimize prep time with their convenient boil-in-bag format, easy for both steam and stove top methods. Enjoy these delicious ways to maximize your commodity dollars and fuel creativity.
