Do Good, Eat Local

DC Central Kitchen, along with our partner Cuisine Solutions, recently announced a new line of gourmet frozen dinners. The product will be sold in local stores, and over our website, and proceeds will support the programs of the Kitchen. Ingredients for the meals are prepped by staff and trainees at the Kitchen, maximizing the impact of our partnership.

The line is produced using all local food, and is one more step toward new forms of using business as philanthropy to make a wider impact on our community. Several local star chefs have contributed recipes for the dishes, including:

Michel Richard - Striped Bass with Lemon Zest and Mushroom Saute

Roberto Donna - Butternut Squash Raviolini with Creamy Pesto Sage Sauce

Jose Andres - Sofrito Amish Chicken Breast with Apples

Jeff Buben - Shrimp and Grits

Kaz Okochi - Beef Short Ribs with Wasabi Mashed Potatoes
(out of stock)

Bruno Bertin - Southwestern Meatloaf with Mashed Potatoes

Where to Buy

Currently, the frozen dinners are being sold online over our website; at Peapod (search for 'Cuisine Solutions'), and at these local retailers:
