October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Spread The Word Share The Love
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we are so excited to be raising funds to donate to the American Cancer Society for the 3rd year in a row!
2015 Donation Goal: $6,000
2014 Donation: $2,500
2013 Donation: $1,228
Last year we pledged to donate $3 for every free food sample we gave away and $1 for each new Facebook fan. After 750 free samples and 250 new fans we donated $2,500.
This year we have 1,000 pink cooler bags for our free food sample deliveries and cannot wait to blow last year’s numbers out of the park!
Direct your friends and family here to request a free gourmet food sample. For each free food sample* we deliver in October we will donate $5.
Share our page on Facebook! For every new Facebook fan we get during October we will donate $1.
Our goal is to distribute all 1,000 pink bags and gain 1,000 new fans which would bring our donation to $6,000.
Refer a couple friends and be a part of something incredible this October – help us support the American Cancer Society!

The Perfect Lamb Dinner

Feel free to whip up your favorite potato recipe as a side, and top off the meal with a rich and delicious dessert like Buttermilk Pie.

Barbecued Lamb

  • 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
  • 1 teaspoon hickory smoked salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon celery salt
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup corn oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 6-pound leg of lamb

Blend ingredients and marinate lamb several hours. Smoke, covered, over low coals about 25 minutes per pound or until meat thermometer registers desired degree of doneness. Baste frequently. Let rest 20 minutes at room temperature before carving.

Stuffed Mushrooms
  • 1 pound mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoons minced onion
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon sherry
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Remove mushroom stems and mince; saute stems with onions in butter until limp. Add cream, sherry and seasonings and cook slowly until thick, stirring constantly, 10-15 minutes. Fill mushroom caps with mixture and place on greased baking sheet. At this point mushrooms may be refrigerated or frozen. When ready to serve, broil until brown and bubbling.

Plantation Tomatoes (while they’re still in season!)

  • 8 tomatoes, at their peak
  • 2 fresh green hot peppers, minced, or 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons minced green or red onions
  • salt and pepper to taste

Peel and cut tomatoes into wedges, removing every woody part. Toss with remaining ingredients. Chill several hours. The secret of this dish is to select perfectly ripened tomatoes and to use only the best sections.

New Product Spotlight:
Grandpa’s Original Blend Burgers

 

 

After winning dozens of side-by-side taste tests comparing Grandpa’s Original Blend Burgers to top chef burgers in NYC, Philly and DC, we decided it was about time to bring this juicy burger to all of our customers.

This 100 year old family recipe is a well kept secret blend of select cuts from the chuck and brisket – it’s unlike anything you’ve ever had before! Plus, we’re braking the mold for these burgers and will offer them only in colossal 8oz patties. Be sure to add a few packages to your next order, we guarantee you won’t regret it.

As always, thanks for supporting Passanante’s Home Food Service! We hope you love our new products us much as we do, and we look forward to impressing you for years to come.

Thanks For A Great 2014!

Thanks for a great 2014

We wanted to take this time to thank all of you for making 2014 the most successful year in the history of Passanante’s Home Food Service! We have the best customers in the world!

With your help we were able to accomplish so much over the last 12 months:

In February we kicked off our sponsorship with the Baltimore Area Special Hockey team thanks to customers Doug and Amanda Stowell!

March was a BIG month for Passanante’s Home Food Service as we opened an office in North Carolina and began shipping our delicious food into the Tarheel state. Passanante’s was also very proud to promote a new executive when Tom Fahey accepted a role as our Vice President of Sales and Service. Congratulations Tom!

In April we launched the much awaited Passanante’s Food Fans Club.

Our first of two shipments of our delicious mac and cheese went out to the Blue Star mothers and the USO in May. The quick heat and eat products were used at BWI airport to feed a hot meal to our soldiers returning from overseas.

We observed National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October and with the help of all of our customers, friends and family we were able to donate $2,500 to the American Cancer Society.

In mid-October the great people at Slicks Graphics outfitted our delivery trucks with awesome new graphics and towards the end of the month we launched our new and improved products section on the website!

In late November we delivered more than 300 holiday sample bags as we wrapped up our Big Holiday Promotion. As a reward for their referrals, Passanante customers were sent certificates totaling more than 225lbs in FREE filet mignon steaks!

And finally, in December Passanante’s was awarded Broich Industries “Dealer of the Year” for the second year in a row. Broich is the exclusive manufacturer of the commercial freezers sold by in-home food service companies throughout all of North America. Their award designates Passanante’s as the fastest-growing home food service company on the entire continent.

Thanks again for trusting Passanante’s with feeding you and your family. We are grateful to have such wonderful customers and it’s truly an honor to serve our community. We appreciate every single customer and staff member who made this year the best yet!
