...new products in store this week, more recipes

We are expecting a delivery of fresh-baked BREADS( YEASTED and "Desem" NATURALLY- LEAVENED), BAGELS, PITAS, MUFFINS, COOKIES AND SANDWICH BUNS from the brick oven of INTEGRITY FOODS to be on our shelves Saturday March 20th.

Along with the familiar items, we will have a new bread and new sandwich buns this week.

They call the bread MANITOBA GOODNESS, and want you to know: " The stone-ground organic spelt is grown on the Pollock's farm near Brandon, the hemp nuts grown by Paul Bobbee at Arborg, sunflower seed oil grown by DeRuycks at Swan Lake and pressed in Winnipeg at The Forks by Grass Roots Prairie Kitchen, honey from the Gregory farm at Fisher Branch. It is 98% Manitoba grown and produced. The hemp provides sustained energy - almost 2 teaspoons per slice! It is a dense, hearth-baked bread packed with nutrition. What more does one want in March, Nutrition Month?!"

Sandwich buns are great for a sandwich every day! You can make 1 or 2 servings with one bun. Fill it with your favourite fillings and enjoy! Or slice into small slices for a bread bite with your meal. The long shape makes it really nice for a sandwich. It is about 110 gr. per bun.

Click on Integrity Foods in our producer links, and have a look at their website, which will tell you all about their bakery and products, as well as how to find them for their famous PIZZA NIGHTS in the summer when folks come from miles around for fresh pizza from the brick oven!
We can also carry their pizza crusts, so let us know if you are interested.

We now have a full complement of REAL DELI FOODS from Elman's Kosher Deli Products, a north end Winnipeg family institution for more than 70 years!
We offer their WHOLE DILL PICKLES WITH GARLIC, DELI SAUERKRAUT, PICKLED HERRING WITH ONION IN A WINE MARINADE, HORSERADISH, BEET HORSERADISH RELISH, AND HOT MUSTARD!
Look past the coffee shop, in the cooler by the deli, where these are all kept refrigerated. A real treat.

Want Recipes? We have been offering a fantastic ancient grain from South America called QUINOA (pronounced "keen wah") for some time now, in whole grain form, white and red, and also as pasta. No doubt this is something new to our area. There is so much to say for this great organic, high protein, low carbohydrate, GLUTEN-FREE food, which can be cooked in a multitude of ways, some of which we wanted to offer you recipes for, but our supplier can do that much better!
Click on the link to GOGO QUINOA and go to their GREAT website to find out all about the product and check out the huge list of RECIPES they provide.
