Lakesides Foods has introduced a new line of frozen appetizers with a breading specially formulated to crisp up in an air fryer or conventional oven. The line includes breaded green beans, pickles and Wisconsin white cheddar cheese curds.
All three items are available for private label retail stores and food service distribution to convenience stores and restaurants, with several retailers already placing orders.
The oven-ready breaded green beans will be available at select retail locations across the U.S.
“These newest products align with eating trends we’re watching, including the growth of frozen breaded appetizers and snacks,” said Trey Taylor, vice president of marketing for Lakeside Foods. “They also capitalize on the air fryer craze, giving consumers the ability to make fun, delicious snacks at home with the crispness and flavor of deep-fried restaurant fare.”
