3 Tasty, Cheap, and Nutritious Reasons to Stop at Gordon Food Service!

Greaaaat Gordon FoodsThese are three products that make my trip to Gordon Food Service worthwhile! Each will save you lots of $$$$$$$$$!

Canned Roasted Red Peppers

I divide this huge quantity into smaller portions. I use for recipes such as: "Chicken" Artichoke CasseroleRED peppers have the most vitamin C of all the bell peppers!
(compared to green, yellow, and orange :)


Frozen Dark Tart Cherries

Another bright color -- those bright colors are very nutritious! They'll help you sleepFrozen fruits and veggies are packaged at their perfectly ripened peak -- maximal nutrition!


Corn Tortillas

They are super thin, so one tortilla is only 35 CALORIES! There are definitely brands available with many fewer ingredients, but these are still great to have on hand. Plus, they freeze perfectly! ...handy since you get 120 of them! Try these Awesome Avocado Quesadillas!

Simple and Delicious -- Roasted Pepper Snacker!!



This is an AWESOME sandwich! Great on WHOLE WHEAT toast, flat bread, or tortilla as a roll-up!

  • 1/2 c fresh spinach - as much as you can get in there!
  • 2 slices roasted red peppers or yellow! Y-U-M!
  • (Costco and Trader Joe's sell jars of this yummy-ness at a great value!)
  • Hummus (best option!) or non-dairy cream cheese spread on toast
  • Whole wheat toasted bread


I ate two of these sandwiches for dinner tonight, along with some peanut butter chocolate banana ice cream!...healthy enough for me to comfortably give to all three of my kids FOR THEIR DINNER! Hope you like this sandwich!!
