These convenient new in-store items make
summer eating as easy as (pickle) pie
CHICAGO, June 4, 2025
/PRNewswire/ -- 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
Kalya 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.
