JIMMY DEAN EXPANDS BEYOND BREAKFAST

Chicago-based Hillshire Brands expanded its Delights by Jimmy Dean line beyond the breakfast category with new homestyle, slow-cooked lunch and dinner offerings that go from the freezer to the microwave to the table in just minutes. The sandwiches are available in Smoked Ham, Pulled Chicken, Hickory Smoked Turkey Breast and Pulled Pork, Smoked Sausage and Beef on a pretzel bun, honey wheat bun, country bun or buttermilk biscuit. All sandwiches come in a Heat Fresh microwavable pouch, which allows for the product to heat right inside the bag. The entrée bowls come in Golden Roasted Turkey, Three Cheese Pasta, Hickory Smoked Ham and Southwest Style Grilled Chicken, Grilled Steak, Smoked Bacon Mac & Cheese, Pulled Pork and Golden Roasted Chicken. The new line extension can be found in the frozen entrées section of grocery stores nationwide.
