Moreover, the Dominex Veggie Fries are all natural and low in sodium, with only 80 milligrams in an 85 gram serving, less than 65% found in the leading brands of traditional French fries and onion rings. However, despite the lower sodium, the taste remains delicious that kids enjoy!

In addition, the Veggie Fries have a simple ingredient legend: by combining Dominex’s signature Italian breading with fresh eggplant, the Fries can be served as a snack, side dish or even an ingredient for casseroles and entrees. Dunk them in marinara sauce, ranch salad dressing of even in a salsa for added flavor. Try them alongside Dominex’s Eggplant Burger for a completely vegan meal of “burgers and fries” packed with fiber but not with calories.

“The Veggie Fries have been popular with our foodservice customers for the last two years, especially with kids where we have had several elementary schools incorporate them into their menus,” said John G. McGarvey, Dominex President. “We felt the timing was opportune for our retail customers as they look for ways to include vegetables into their meals in a flavorful manner. Plus, like with all Dominex items, they are convenient to prepare and delicious to enjoy,” he added.

The “Veggie Fries” are available in the frozen aisle at Publix but coming to additional retailers in the months ahead. Look for them alongside the Dominex breaded Eggplant Cutlet (#1 selling eggplant cutlet), the Vegetarian Eggplant Meatballs, the Vegan Eggplant Burger and the delicious Eggplant Parmesan Bites.

This move west coincides with consumer demand for more unique vegetarian and vegan offerings and a desire to incorporate more varied vegetable options into their meals. By using fresh eggplant as the primary ingredient, Dominex offers health and ingredient simplicity, while delivering taste and convenience. Moreover, Dominex provides year-round solutions for integrating one of the healthiest vegetables into mealtime – try the vegan Eggplant Cutlets, ranked #1 by IRI, on the grill!

“About a year ago, we embarked on a journey to bring our delicious, healthy and convenient products to consumers in the west, and we’ve been overwhelmed by the response,” says John G. McGarvey, Dominex President. “I’m excited to say that vegetarians, foodies, vegans and other consumers seeking an easy, healthy meal solution along the Pacific coast can now find all of our products in the frozen aisles of their favorite retailers; and there are more products to come.”

All Dominex products are now available to consumers, including: the Dominex Eggplant Cutlets – all natural lightly breaded slices of eggplant which are great in parmesan dishes, as a side dish or within a sandwich; the Vegetarian Eggplant Meatball – one of the healthiest meatballs on the planet. With only 90 calories and 2.5 grams of fat in an approximate six “meatball” serving, these not only taste great but deliver on a real meatball experience as well; the Eggplant Parmesan Bite – a bite-sized nugget of vegetarian bliss, the Parm’ Bites combine eggplant with natural cheeses and marinara sauce to deliver a classic entree in your finger tips; and the Vegan “All American” Eggplant Burger, offering a delicious substitute to both conventional and other meatless burgers.

Eggplant has long been cited as a source of antioxidants and can be an excellent source of fiber. Its signature versatility lends itself well to cooking and new product innovation. When compared to buying and preparing fresh eggplant, Dominex items also save consumers time and money.
