Mountain House Introduces Chicken & Dumplings, and Homestyle Chicken Noodle Casserole

Mountain House, the top selling brand of camping food in North America, has introduced two new entrees for 2016: Homestyle Chicken Noodle Casserole, and Chicken & Dumplings. All three items are unique offerings in the outdoor recreation and emergency preparedness markets.

"Like always, we asked consumers what recipes they wanted us to make for 2016 and we've delivered," says Brandy Lamb, Senior Brand Manager at Mountain House. "The large retailers we've shown these to have been very excited. Everyone is expecting these to be big sellers."

These two classic American comfort foods are the only ones of their kind available in the dried camping food space. They are the only ones that only require nothing more than adding hot water to the pouch.

"We have unique technical capabilities and expertise at Mountain House. That's why our Chicken and Dumplings, and Homestyle Chicken Noodle Casserole don't require separate cooking pans to make them," remarks Lamb. Both entrees feature no-mess and are ready to eat in under 10 minutes.

• Chicken and Dumplings: Made with real chicken meat, carrot dices, green peas and real dumpling pieces
• Homestyle Chicken Noodle Casserole: Made with real chicken, mushrooms, celery, and green peppers in a rich cream sauce.

These new items are currently available on Mountainhouse.com and are rolling out to retailers nationwide.
