French Onion Patty Melts

By Mary White, DailyBizSolutions Editor

As a busy entrepreneur, finding work-life balance can certainly be a challenging. It’s even difficult to juggle meal planning and grocery shopping with all of the many things that you have to keep track of on a daily basis. Hormel’s EZ  Cook application is a great tool for busy business owners like you! It certainly helped me.

Meal Planning and Shopping Challenges

Have you ever gone to the grocery store to pick up the items you need to prepare your favorite recipe only to get home and find that you don’t have everything you need? Or, do you ever stumble across a great deal on a certain cut of meat while you’re in the supermarket only to realize that you don’t know what else you might need to purchase to turn it in to a tasty meal?

Buying the items that you need to prepare a complete meal shouldn’t be difficult, yet it’s not uncommon to spend quite a bit of time and money in the supermarket only to get home and discover that you still don’t have everything you need to prepare a tasty, healthful meal for your family.

Wouldn’t shopping be easier if you could access all of the information you need to purchase everything you need to prepare a complete meal while you are actually in the supermarket? With a Smartphone and the Hormel EZ Cook application, you can do just that!

About Hormel EZCook

The next time you’re shopping for meat in the supermarket, check to see what varieties of Hormel Always Tender ® meat items the grocer has on hand. No matter what cuts from the product line you’d like to try, you don’t have to wonder about how to prepare it or what else you need to shop for if you if you use the EZ Cook application.

Simply access the application directly from the browser of your Smart Phone and enter the EZ Cook code from the meat package. Alternately, you can use the drop down menu to select the product you are interested in from the drop down menu. When you do that, you’ll find that all of your concerns about what to do to transform the Always Tender product you want to purchase into a complete meal for your family.

You’ll find great recipes for the item you choose that includes step-by-step instructions, plus nutritional information, a detailed shopping list and a photograph of what the finished meal will look like. You can decide what you want to prepare and add any necessary items from the shopping list while you are in the store. What could be easier than that?

Try Something New with EZ Cook

You’ll likely find that you’re brave enough to try out cuts of meat that you wouldn’t ordinarily purchase when you use this application. For example, I have seen ground pork in the store many times, but never knew what to do with it. Armed with the recipe for French Onion Patty Melts that I could access from my phone, I was confident that I could successfully prepare a meal with this product. It was a big hit in my house, and I never would have attempted it without EZ Cook.

I received a gift card and coupons from Hormel Foods to cover the cost of groceries for my EZ Cook inspired meal, and I am entered in a drawing for writing this post.
