Blue Horizon Organic Seafood Co. Introduces Last Minute Chef Line of Restaurant Quality Entrees and Appetizers for Grocery

Posted on: Tuesday, 13 February 2007, 12:00 CST

APTOS, Calif., Feb. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Horizon Organic Seafood Company has elevated the quality of frozen entrees and appetizers available in supermarkets by introducing its Last Minute Chef product line featuring sustainable seafood and top quality natural ingredients.

Already a leading supplier of branded and private label seafood, Blue Horizon's Last Minute Chef frozen line of entrees and appetizers are ready in minutes and include four types of hand made spring rolls family size meals.

"Last Minute Chef products have no MSG, no preservatives, no flavor enhancing synthetic chemicals, so all you get is great flavor through quality ingredients and responsibly sourced seafood," said Blue Horizon co-founder John Battendieri. "Our spring rolls, for example, feature fresh vegetables such as asparagus, shiitake mushrooms, and coriander root, well above the standard carrot-and-cabbage filler found in many other brands' products."

Blue Horizon's Last Minute Chef hand-made spring rolls (hand-made means less "wrapper" and more content) come in 12 per box in Thai vegetable, Chinese vegetable, Thai shrimp and Chinese shrimp varieties. Family-size meals, including Pad Thai (rice noodles with shrimp, fresh vegetables and sprouts), are another of the line's popular meal solution.

The Last Minute Chef line features hormone and antibiotic free shrimp, raised by family farmers using organic methods. All products yield superior, restaurant quality results. Products are sold at select Whole Foods, Wild Oats, and conventional supermarkets.

Blue Horizon's founders, John Battendieri and Tim Redmond, are best known for building natural and organic food brands such as Santa Cruz Organics and Eden Foods, Inc., originator of Edensoy Soymilk. All of Blue Horizon's seafood products are sourced in strict compliance with conservation policies. Blue Horizon is improving the health of the world's fisheries and the marine environment, working in support of conservation efforts of the Monterey Bay Aquarium, the Marine Stewardship Council and the development of domestic certified organic aquaculture.

Blue Horizon was founded in 2005 to build a branded, consumer-driven seafood business to supply sustainable, wild-caught and organic seafood products to North America, while simultaneously helping protect the health of aquatic ecosystems. Learn more at http://www.bluehorizonseafood.com/.
