Home Chef Debuts Pickle Pizza with Grillo’s Pickles, Classic Seasoned Chicken and More on Kroger Shelves

Home Chef is satisfying summer cravings for customers nationwide with a fresh new lineup of flavorful, convenient meals available at the Kroger Family of Stores. To kick off the summer spread, Home Chef is launching an exclusive, limited-time Pickle Pizza with the one and only Grillo’s Pickles – offering a ready-to-bake pizza that packs a spicy, crisp and fresh kick and proves every dish is made better with pickles. Home Chef has also upgraded its Classic Seasoned Chicken with a new herb and spice blend that brings bold flavor to the dinner table staple.

Home Chef x Grillo’s Pickle Pizza is inspired by sunny backyard BBQs. The ready-to-bake pickle pie is topped with mozzarella cheese, Grillo’s hot pickle chips, pulled pork, red onions and creamy BBQ sauce on wood-fired style crust – perfect for entertaining pickle-obsessed friends or switching it up on the next pizza night. Pickle fans can now find the pizza at participating Kroger stores nationwide, but the zesty ‘za is only available through Labor Day weekend, so pickle lovers should grab one while they can. Each Pickle Pizza serves four people (SRP: $7.99) and is ready in just 16 minutes, so the pizza party always starts on time.

“Home Chef is thrilled to collaborate with the pickle pros at Grillo’s to create this flavor-bomb Pickle Pizza,” said Kayla McCreery, marketing manager at Home Chef. “Between our ready-to-bake pizzas, our new ready-to-eat Classic Seasoned Chicken, and our many other in-store meals and snacks, Kroger customers are sure to enjoy simple, tasty meals this summer.”

Home Chef and Kroger also revamped a grocery go-to: the Classic Seasoned Fresh Roasted Chicken. This ready-to-eat, bone-in chicken amps up the flavor with bold yet versatile seasonings, including onion, roasted garlic, herbs like parsley and oregano, lemon and dijon mustard. Great as a centerpiece protein or adding to sandwiches, soups, stews, salads and more, the upgraded Classic Seasoned Chicken is an all-around staple that delivers comfort and convenience. This new whole chicken, available hot or cold, is now on shelves in the deli department of participating Kroger stores (SRP: $7.99; serves up to four people).

Shoppers can also find two new Mexican-inspired, heat-and-eat offerings from Home Chef at Kroger stores starting in mid-July: heat-and-eat Burritos (crafted in collaboration with Tucson Foods), which come in Cilantro-Lime Chicken Pork Carnitas varieties – plus, a cheesy Chicken Quesadilla with red salsa.
