Alexia Foods, Eagle, Idaho, introduced the latest stars of the dinner table—new Alexia Premium Seasoned Vegetables and Rib Cut BBQ Sweet Potato Fries, made with the finest all-natural ingredients and seasoned with a blend of herbs and spices.

"When planning a meal, the side dish often gets overlooked," says Rob Johnson, senior brand manager. "The distinctive flavors and all-natural ingredients of Alexia's new side dishes round out meals with a taste so good, your families will ask for more." 

Unlike other bagged vegetables hidden underneath heavy sauces, Alexia's premium seasoned vegetables offer all the tastes from a farmer's harvest in four unique varieties. The new steam-in-bag package locks in the goodness of crisp vegetables while delivering a no-fuss side in less than five minutes. The vegetable offerings include:

French Herb Green Beans. Kissed with a dash of black pepper and spritzed with olive oil.

Parmesan Peas. Northwest-grown sweet peas take on a savory profile with the addition of artisan parmesan cheese and parsley.

Southern Sweet Potato Blend.Sweet potatoes, sweet corn, sweet peas, red bell peppers and onions topped with a pinch of cayenne pepper and seasoned herbs.

Italian Herb Corn with Sundried Tomatoes.Grown in the Columbia River Valley, this combination of white and yellow super sweet corn is blended with tangy sundried tomatoes and topped with an array of Italian herbs and garlic.

Also new are Rib Cut BBQ Sweet Potato Fries, a unique twist on the classic sweet potato fry.

"Adding even more variety to our collection of Alexia sweet potato fries, our new Rib Cut BBQ Sweet Potato Fries plays off the popularity of barbeque as one of America's favorite potato chip flavors," adds Johnson. "This unique skin-on cut variety is made with farm-fresh sweet potatoes and infuses the flavor of Southern barbeque with a spicy kick. They're sweet potato fries at their finest."

Now available in frozen food aisles nationwide, these new Alexia vegetable and sweet potato products are non-GMO verified. Alexia Premium Seasoned Vegetables are sold in 11- and 12-ounce packages for a suggested retail price of $2.49.
