Leading Grocery with Personalized Wellness Meals for Health Objectives
MILWAUKEE, WI (April 23, 2024) -- Earth Fare, the grocery chain committed to offering clean and sustainable food choices, this year announced an exclusive collaboration with GenoPalate, a leader in personalized nutrition science. Building upon their shared commitment to revolutionizing wellness in the grocery industry, Earth Fare and GenoPalate this month introduced a line of meal kits tailored to two of consumers’ most common needs: Healthy Weight and Athletic Performance.
This month, Earth Fare’s Healthy Weight option is savory Greek Meatballs, made with a perfectly seasoned blend of turkey and pork—free of added hormones and antibiotics—and drizzled with a rich roasted red pepper sauce. The dish is complimented with a light Mediterranean bean salad and a bright Brussel sprout slaw. The delicious combination is packed with fiber, protein, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates, all of which are proven to help diners feel full and satisfied. The Athletic Performance meal includes Almond Crusted Salmon, featuring Earth Fare’s sustainably sourced salmon paired with vegetable quinoa salad and lentil salad with yellow squash. This meal option features high levels of protein, iron, leucine, and other nutrients designed to help athletes perform at their peak. Each meal can be prepared in less than 15 minutes using the microwave and oven.
The kits are curated by GenoPalate’s registered dietitians and will roll out new options each month featuring seasonal flavors. Meal kits are affordably priced and are prepared in each Earth Fare location daily, made from Earth Fare’s premium ingredients that are always free of artificial additives and other harmful ingredients.
“We hear time and time again that one of the biggest barriers to healthy eating is lack of time to cook,” said Frankie O’Brien, Lead Dietitian at GenoPalate. “We are excited to share these meal kits in our ongoing effort to serve as a resource for shoppers on their wellness journey.”
