Side Delights is starting grilling season with grill-ready potato products and recipes as consumers continue to value meals at home.

“Potatoes are perfect for parties, BBQs, and outdoor gatherings this summer,” Kathleen Triou, president and CEO of Fresh Solutions Network, said in a news release. “From easy crowd-pleasing potato salads to colorful BBQ skewers and Grillables potatoes wrapped in foil, Side Delights has recipes and products for any occasion.”

Fresh Solutions Network is the exclusive supplier of Side Delights potatoes and onions.

According to a recent study on top summer grilling trends, 92% of shoppers plan to grill between May and September, and 62% of shoppers will grill multiple nights per week during these months, according to the release.

This summer, more shoppers may search for grilling items in their grocery store aisles, the release said.

Morgan Stanley reported that packaged food companies expect continued growth throughout 2023 as consumers favor eating at home to save more and spend less, the release said.

The trend extends beyond the kitchen, according to a study on 2023 summer grilling trends and innovations by a grocery research market company, which found that consumers continue to value at-home meals when grilling, the release said. The study also showed an increase in the popularity of kebabs and skewers as a grilling favorite.

The release said consumers can visit the Side Delights recipe page for recipes on Red Potato Skewers on the Grill; Grilled Yellow Potato Planks; Red, White, and Blue Potato Salad; and other easy, economical grill-at-home summer recipes.
