Winning with White House Rolls

Winning with White House Rolls!

A customer favorite for decades, White House Rolls® have provided a unique and tasty base for some of the best sandwiches in town . These rolls were developed in the late 1940s in response to a quest for a perfect yeast roll. They were called White House Rolls because of the dusting of white flour when the rolls were panned—and because they were good enough to serve at The White House! These amazing rolls have become a staple in thousands of households across central Virginia and beyond.  The rolls are so versatile that they can be a part of every meal, from a breakfast bacon, egg and cheese to a lunchtime meal with Chicken Salad or served alongside your favorite meal at dinner.  In addition, White House Rolls also come in both a white and a wheat varieties making them even more enjoyable.  This year, White House Rolls became the official roll of the Ukrop’s Monument Avenue 10K.  A winning combination, each participant to cross the finish line was given their own individual packet of White House Rolls!  Visit www.whitehouserolls.com and find out how we roll!  Tweet your favorite way to enjoy White House Rolls by using @ukrops #whrolls!

Savoring Summer

One of my favorite aspects of summer is a spontaneous day trip with my kids like a quick trip to Yorktown Beach.  It’s a low cost mini-vacation and to help keep costs down I fill a cooler full of our picnic favorites.  With the help of Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods I don’t have to worry about planning because I know I can get delicious picnic perfect food anytime!

My picnic menu from Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods.

A picnic must is Ukrop’s White House Rolls.  These rolls are perfect for each kid to make their own sandwich or to munch on plain.

I like the Ukrop’s Tarragon Chicken Salad (perfect on the White House Rolls) and the Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad.  My kids love a side of Ukrop’s Macaroni Salad.

Of course you can’t have a picnic without Ukrop’s Fried Chicken or Chicken Tenders.  How can you resist?

Ukrop’s Homestyle Foods also has a great selection of fresh cut fruit and vegetables perfect for all day snacking.

And a perfect summer sweet treat that holds up to the heat is the Ukrop’s Butterstar Cookies.  The only place these cookies melt is in your mouth!
