*****************************************

***Product received for consideration, all thoughts are 100% my own. 

When we think of seasons and food, we so often think about the fall/winter. Make sense, right? We have all of these holidays that focus around family meals- Thanksgiving, Christmas... even New Years has it's own traditional meal too!

But, if you think about it... summer is a season of food too! It's just the foods are a little different. We trade our cinnamon baked goodness in for ice cream trucks or homemade ice cream. We trade in hot cocoa for fresh squeezed lemonade. And we trade in those big ham and/or turkey dinners for BBQ. Awww, yes... nothing says an all American summer quite like a good ol' fashioned BBQ.

Two words that might not come to mind when you think of BBQ?

Healthy. Or Fast.

But thanks to ReadyPac, that can change!



Just in time for summer, Ready Pac Foods is turning up the heat with the launch of its Limited Edition Roasted Corn and Pulled Pork Bistro Bowl® . This craveable new salad, with right-off-the-grill flavors, gives consumers the taste of summer they want in a convenient and healthy
way.

“Consumers should be able to indulge in delicious summer BBQ flavors in a convenient way without sacrificing healthy eating,” said Ready Pac Foods Vice President, Portfolio Marketing, Nannette Richardson. “We developed the Limited Edition Roasted Corn and Pulled Pork Bistro® after seeing pulled pork grow 21 percent as an ingredient on restaurant menus over the last five years. Combined with corn, one of the ingredients consumers found most appealing for the upcoming summer season, our newest limited edition salad gives them the summer grilled taste they crave.”

Inspired by backyard summer BBQ, this deliciously flavorful salad features fire-roasted corn, smoky poblano peppers and tender, seasoned pulled pork on top of a crisp chopped blend of romaine and iceberg lettuces. Topped with a creamy chili lime dressing, cheese cornbread croutons and a BBQ sauce drizzle, this satisfying salad adds variety and flavor to any summer menu. The new salad will only be 
available through mid-September 2017 so don’t miss it!

Sounds amazing, right? It certainly did to my pork loving boys, so we had to put it to the test!

The verdict? They LOVED it. The flavors were just those fun summer flavors that they loved, but in a much more convenient package! We didn't have to stand over a hot grill in the summer heat, we didn't have to wait for it to cook through-- open, mix and done!


Let's be honest, summer is also a busy month, and sometimes its go, go, go... we don't have time to prepare those healthy meals every single night. As a mom, I loved that these were easy to grab and hand to the kids (so long as you have salad loving kids like myself) that I can feel better than a typical convenience meal. This is also a busy time of year for my husband- he works in a motorcycle and jeep shop and well... summer business is booming! There are many nights that he doesn't get home until 10 PM or later, so these again are a great option to have on hand for him when he gets home--- or to send to work with him!

  22. Always pre-warm your barbeque. For gas turn on high for 5-10 minutes at that point alter temperature as required. For charcoal light the coals 30 minutes before you plan to begin cooking.https://howdoesyourgardenmow.com/best-smokers-under-500/
