Lean Cuisine's Honestly Good Entrees Contain Natural Ingredients, No Preservatives

Sept. 17, 2013
Nestle USA partnered with select farmers to grow the ingredients for the new entree line that features six varieties of lean proteins.

New Lean Cuisine Honestly Good from Nestle USA, Solon, Ohio, are entrees made with a combination of thoughtfully selected, quality ingredients that are all natural and contain no preservatives. They are packed in translucent trays, which allows consumers to see the meal they're about to enjoy. They're available in the natural meals section of the freezer aisle.

All six varieties feature lean proteins, such as whole white meat chicken breasts and North Pacific wild-caught fish filets, nutritious whole grains and farm-selected vegetables with a flavor-packed sauce the consumer adds as desired. The six varieties are: Honey Citrus Chicken, Lemongrass Salmon, Pineapple Black Pepper Beef, Plum Ginger Grain-Crusted Fish, Pomegranate Chicken and Roasted Red Pepper Chicken. Each single-serve meal contains 270-390 calories, 7-9g of fat, 15-27g of protein and 290-590mg of sodium, depending on variety.

Nestle has partnered with select farmers to grow the ingredients for the new entrée line. Together with some of these farmers, the company is donating a portion of the vegetables grown for the entrees to local communities through its Honestly Good Giving program. In the first year, the program is expected to give one million servings of vegetables to those in need.
