Heart of The Week: Ready Pac Foods

Ready Pac Foods is all about convenience, and their pre-packaged meals and snacks can be taken anywhere! From running between meetings to packing school lunches, Ready Pac has options for just about any time you’re in a pinch for quick and healthy food. Unlike most packaged foods, these are ACTUALLY healthy. They have everything from fruit cups, veggies and dip, crackers and cheese, salads, bistro boxes+beyond! The kids LOVED the fruit cups in their lunch boxes. Of course, I instantly gravitated towards their ElevAte line--8 different nutrient dense superfood salads! My favorite is the “Power Grains Superfood Salad,” which is filled with organic spring mix, carrots and red cabbage, raisins, almonds, quinoa, wheatberries, and an orange vinaigrette.

Something that’s really important to me is limiting waste whenever possible. Anyone who knows me knows that I don’t like to sacrifice caring for the environment in exchange for convenience. Normally I don’t go for foods packaged in plastic, but Ready Pac Foods is different--They’re committed to sustainability. For example, their Bistro Bowl Salads use 70% post-consumer PET plastic, and are made in a plant that operates using 50% solar energy. They also use natural gas and energy efficient lighting at their facilities. Although it’s still using plastic, it’s a lot better than most companies because they are so environmentally conscious! I’m always on the go, so sometimes convenience foods save the day! When I have to choose to use plastic, I would rather it be from a company like Ready Pac that cares about the environment as much as I do!
