Frontier Soups Adds Two New Options to Homemade-in-Minutes Line Frontier Soups™ has added two soups to its broad portfolio of gourmet mixes re- fined over 28 years to satisfy a wide range of culinary tastes and dietary needs. One of the new mixes is crafted to satisfy con- sumers who want better-for-you options. The second helps make cooking fun for a new generation of soup lovers. Both soups are in the Homemade-in-Minutes line of quicker-cooking soups. West Coast Kale and Quinoa Vegetable Soup Mix, a vegetarian and cer- tified gluten-free soup, gratifies con- sumers' desire to incorporate nutrient-rich ancient grains and kale into their diets. This is according to Trisha Anderson, the founder of Frontier Soups. White quinoa and flakes of nutritious freeze-dried kale and butternut squash add substance to the soup along with grocery additions of canned tomatoes and fresh or frozen but- ternut squash. Frontier Soups' new Little Schoolhouse Alphabet Soup contains organic pasta and is filled with the kid-pleasing vegetables peas, corn and carrots. Light seasoning ap- peals to young palates, although the soup's comforting childhood flavors satisfy adult appetites as well. Home cooks add fresh or prepared chicken to the soup. "Consumers are asking us for more vegetarian options and are looking for easy ways to incorpo- rate superfoods like kale and quinoa into their diets. That's why we created the recipe for our new kale and quinoa vegetable soup," Anderson said. "We also wanted to give parents a way to bring their kids into the kitchen, and our new alphabet soup is simple enough to be a family project." Frontier Soups keeps 35 soup mixes in its lineup to accommodate a variety of consumer tastes. The mixes are all-nat- ural with no added salt, preservatives or MSG. The company now offers 12 vege- tarian options, and 28 of its soups are cer- tified gluten-free. More information is available at www.frontiersoups.com or by calling 800.300.SOUP (7687).
