Coconut Cauliflower Curry is a vegan and gluten free combination of roasted cauliflower and white beans is served in a rich curry of coconut cream and warming Indian spices.

Chickpea Masala is a vegan gluten free mix of chickpeas and tomatoes simmered in a blend of garlic, ginger and Indian spices and served with Basmati rice.

Chicken Enchiladas Al Chipotle is a gluten free Mexican-style offering with roasted dark meat chicken, fire-roasted corn and Oaxaca cheese are hand-wrapped in nixtamal corn tortillas with a creamy chipotle sauce and served with black beans and rice.

Each entree has an MSRP of $5.99.

“We’re very excited to introduce Morocco as the latest stop on our culinary Journey to Better, and bring our customers the vibrant, earthy flavors of North Africa. We’re so proud of these new entrees and their ability to deliver restaurant-quality global meals right from your freezer,” said Chef John Umlauf, senior vice president of culinary operations. “At Saffron Road, our kitchens are held to the highest standards of culinary excellence, and our meals are prepared just like a restaurant with no shortcuts: we caramelize and deglaze the mirepoix and tomato paste, pan-roast the vegetables, and slow-simmer the sauces, all using authentic, wholesome ingredients native to the regions of each recipe.”
