About Amy's Kitchen:
"We didn’t set out to become the nation’s leading natural frozen food brand. All we wanted to do was create a business that would allow us to earn a living by providing convenient and tasty natural vegetarian meals for people like ourselves, who appreciated good food, but were often too busy to cook "from scratch."
We started on a "shoestring," using our own house and barn as headquarters. The founding meetings were held in the same room where we were married and where our daughter Amy was born.
This was in 1987, before the idea of "organic" food had become well known, and when there were very few frozen meals available for vegetarians to eat, either in health food stores or supermarkets. We were, however, very fortunate in being in the right place at the right time. The number of vegetarians had increased dramatically, as had consumer awareness of the harmful effects on their health and the environment of chemicals in the food supply. Our first product, a vegetable pot pie, was an instant success.
Other products followed in rapid succession, and we made the amazing discovery that they were being eaten not only by vegetarians and those interested in natural foods, but by millions of people looking for easy to prepare meals that really tasted good.
Since then Amy’s has created over 88 frozen meals, including pizzas, pocket sandwiches, pot pies, entrées, snacks and whole meals. In 1999, we introduced a grocery line that now includes canned soups, beans and chili as well as jarred pasta sauces and salsas. Our foods are carried by all natural food stores, supermarkets and some club stores in the United States, Canada and abroad.
Although we have considerably expanded our production facilities and the number of people we employ, we have remained a family owned and operated business, sensitive to the needs of our customers.
In spite of the fact that many companies now produce similar products, Amy’s is still #1 in popularity and sales. Our total commitment to quality has made the difference."
About the Rice Crust Cheese Pizza:
"Amy's cheese and tomato pizza made with a tender organic rice crust will surprise and delight those who do not tolerate wheat, and anyone looking for a unique taste treat."
What we thought: We had never tried pizza with a rice crust before. It was an interesting change to regular crust. It tasted lighter with a grainier texture and was pretty tasty. We made this pizza as a snack for 5 kiddos and the entire pizza was gone within 5 minutes...so I guess that is a testament to the taste:) I was very impressed with the large variety of products Amy's Kitchen offers...everything from full meals to snacks to desserts, it seemed like there was something for every time of day! I love that these foods are healthy and made from organic ingredients. They are also widely available at the grocery stores in my area which is nice:) ABCD Diaries gives Amy's Kitchen an A!
