  2. Gather Around the Gridiron

    Football season is already underway, and it’s a great time for families to gather around the gridiron.  Watching sports with your family can be an enjoyable experience as you cheer for your favorite teams, learn about historic moments in sports and spend quality time together!  It’s no secret that sports and food go great together, but watching a game doesn’t mean that you have to be on junk-food overload. 

     Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods prepares or makes a variety of great appetizers for small viewing parties with just the family—to big gatherings with friends and neighbors during major events. 

    Spice up your routine and add some of our great game-day “starters!” 

    • Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods Spinach and Artichoke Dip

    Enjoy a dip that’s a blend of spinach and artichokes combined with cheddar, Monterrey Jack and Parmesan cheeses.  Goes great with fresh pita, pita chips or water crackers; for an added touch serve it in hollowed-out artisan bread.  Chop the bread into cubes and watch it disappear!

    •  Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods Buffalo Chicken Dip

    Get your chicken fix without messy bones to clean up!  Our great-tasting buffalo chicken dip is made with all white meat chicken, cream cheese, ranch dressing and flavorful spices!  We’ve kicked it up with hot sauce and topped it with cheddar cheese!  Serve with fresh veggies!

    •  Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods 7 Layer Dip

    We’ve taken the guess work out with our hearty dip made with refried beans, guacamole, sour cream, black olives, shredded cheese and more!  Heat and eat and serve with our salsa and tortilla chips!

     Find these items are your local MARTIN’S store in our convenient pans that can be heated in the oven or the microwave!

  3. Fall Back on Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods

    I love to cook and can often be found Sunday afternoons prepping meals for the coming week.  Yet, with the arrival of Fall Ball, dance rehearsals, apple picking, pumpkin picking and a husband often out of town I have not had the time I want to prepare a home cooked meal.

    Whether it’s a crazy day running the kids to their various activities or simply taking the time to sit down together for a slow Sunday supper I love having the option of Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods Bakes.  These family-sized entrees and sides can be hot and ready for a family dinner in just 30 minutes.  For my pasta-fiend children there is always debate about a warm and filling Baked Manicotti, Baked Spaghetti or Authentic Italian Lasagna Bake for the perfect meal after a long day.  Or on those days I want something like my grandmother used to make there is comforting Chicken Cobbler, mounds of Cheddar Mashed Potatoes and Meatloaf or Triple Cheese Macaroni and Cheese.

    This last time we popped in they saw Buffalo Chicken Dip so they had to grab one of those too “just to try”.  And of course as we head to the check-out line they make a last minute grab for the some White House Rolls.



  4. Delicious Dinner in the Dark

    The nights are getting colder and with Daylight Savings Time in full effect, the darkness descends more quickly. For most busy moms like myself, the nights seem shorter and making a healthy hot dinner can be a challenge.


    Especially the nights when I’m shuffling two to gymnastics and dance class with just two hours in-between before the oldest goes to Cub Scouts. . .there’s so little time to prepare anything AND get homework done! That’s why we love Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods Bakes & Prepared Sides.

    There’s no need to talk my kids into cleaning their plates. . they love a Meatloaf Bake and some Ukrop’s Mac and Cheese after a long day at school and  it gives them just enough energy to make it through until morning, when we get up and start our crazy lunch-packing morning routine. Keeping fruits and veggies already cut and prepared is helpful, too–it ensures a little variety in our meals and saves this mama time. Now if we could just pick up a clone when we were in the supermarket. . .
