Two more Applegate Naturals brand frozen breakfast sandwiches have been launched: Chicken & Maple Breakfast Sausage, Egg & Cheese on a Biscuit, and Savory Turkey Breakfast Sausage, Egg & Cheese on an English Muffin. Each heat-and-eat offering contains 12-14 grams of protein per serving.

With 58% of adults in the United States eating breakfast at home and 18% taking the day’s first meal on the road or at work, this is the Bedminster, New Jersey-headquartered company’s fourth breakfast innovation in two years.

“Our breakfast sausages are a customer favorite, and with these new offerings we’ve made it even easier and more delicious to enjoy them on the go,” said President Joseph O’Connor. “As a parent, it’s personally important to me that we continue to introduce products with high quality, simple ingredients, and meat sourced from animals raised with no antibiotics. I’m confident our breakfast sandwiches deliver in on these promises and will quickly become a favorite breakfast option for the whole family.”

Mia Syn, MS, RDN registered dietitian and author, added: ”As a dietitian and mom, I’m always on the lookout for quick, convenient breakfast options that don’t compromise on quality or taste. Applegate Naturals Breakfast Sandwiches check all the boxes – they’re made with humanely raised, 100% natural meat and Certified Humane eggs, and heat up in minutes in a microwave oven.”

Meanwhile, Applegate has also rolled out a new pork sausage variety of its Pancake & Sausage Sticks. Featuring a fluffy pancake wrapped around savory sausage placed on a stick, the product provides seven grams of protein per serving.

The Applegate Naturals Breakfast Sandwiches are available at most major retail stores in the USA, including Sprouts and Raley’s, priced at $8.99. The Pancake & Sausage Sticks are available sell for $7.99.
