FreshDirect and EatingWell Launch 4-Minute Meals Line

FreshDirect, a provider of online gourmet food purveyors and delivery services, has partnered with EatingWell, an independent consumer food magazine, to launch its new line of vegetarian 4-Minute Meals.

According to FreshDirect, the new EatingWell line blends bold flavor with perfect portions of protein, grains and vegetables for well-balanced meals that pack fewer than 500 calories each.

As the latest addition to the 4-Minute Meal line, the EatingWell meals take the convenience of microwave technology and pair it with a growing demand for great-tasting and healthy food options. Developed in conjunction with the culinary experts at EatingWell Media Group, the line is said to offer new flavor combinations in a variety of eight 4-Minute Meals.

The EatingWell line covers meatless comfort food classics, exotic Indian flavors, satisfying southwestern and savory Italian specialties, all made with the freshest ingredients available.

Eileen Vider, corporate nutritionist of FreshDirect, said: “EatingWell is known for simple, healthful recipes that taste great and that are in-line with our nutritional parameters. Because their Test Kitchen and staff nutritionist adhere to high standards for recipe testing and nutrition information, we knew that we had a good partner.”
