New reduced sodium American classics
“Old-Fashioned” Sausage Gravy (reduced sodium)
JTM's “Old-Fashioned” Sausage Gravy is kettle-cooked, then rapidly chilled and frozen to lock in the peak flavor and freshness of the large chunks of sausage. It tastes great over biscuits or a few JTM Sausage Patties.
Macaroni & Cheese (reduced sodium)
This premium mac and cheese is loaded with tender large elbow noodles blended with rich, creamy cheddar cheese for a smooth, buttery taste.
Sloppy Joe (reduced fat & sodium)
A true classic enjoyed by people of all ages! We’ve combined the natural tastes of tomatoes, green peppers and onions and added just the right amount of spice to create a sweet, yet tangy, sloppy joe!
Cinnamon Apples (low fat & sodium)
Juicy, sliced apples blended with cinnamon and brown sugar. Perfect as a side dish, or even a dessert.
Chicken Pot Pie Filling (reduced sodium)
Our chicken pot pie filling will take you back to the days of your childhood and your grandma’s kitchen. Made using diced white-meat chicken, carrots, onions, peas and celery blended with a creamy sauce.
All of these items are packed in 5lb. boilable/steamable pouches and are fully cooked and frozen.
