Del Monte Foods’ Veggieful Bites combine vegetables, cheese

There’s a new, cheesy way to get a daily dose of vegetables.

Del Monte Foods has launched its new Veggieful Bites line, which combines veggies and real cheese in a baked crust with cauliflower.

Available in three flavors — broccoli and cheddar, spinach and feta, and veggie and mozzarella — each contains 9 g of protein and is made with real cheese, the company said.

"We are excited to grow the frozen snack category with Veggieful Bites to revitalize the notion that nutrition and great taste can coexist in the frozen aisle," said Liam Farrell, VP of Brand Marketing for Del Monte Foods. "Del Monte first and foremost keeps consumers' ever-changing needs in mind when developing new products. In a fast and mobile world, we envision Veggieful Bites as a delicious and nutritious option that can be everyone's first choice for a party snack, holiday appetizer, and more."

In addition, Veggieful Bites do not contain artificial preservatives or colors, and are made with a whole wheat and cauliflower crust.

Shoppers can find the snack wherever the brand’s products are currently sold.
