[nyc newbie]

Does anyone know what new foods are being introduced this summer?

[jillmarie13]

Coffee cake estimated to arrive 7/19
Chicken spinach mushroom panini estimated to arrive 8/23.
Good news for those (like me) who liked the Three Cheese Marinara- it' s coming back approx. 10/25. Clam chowder should arrive then too. As well as Apple Waffles.

Darn it, I was hoping that that quesadilla they were supposed to bring out in May would be making an appearance soon!!! JC really needs more vegetarian lunches!

I agree Im vegetarian and the lunch choices are pathetic, Im constantly eating the same thing. I did hear a veggies quesadilla is coming out soon

[HopefulVickie]

I need my Wok Beef to come back.

The three cheese ziti marinara is already on the permanent menu. Where did you get this information from? My Counselor has never heard of these plans. Just curious and hopeful!

I had heard the Three-Cheese Ziti was made permanent, also, but my centre doesn't have it, either. Also, my JCC said there was supposed to be a Spinach & Artichoke Quesadilla coming out in mid-May, but they have heard nothing about the delay....anyone know?!

[Janet Kay]

Mmmmmm, these new additions sound interesting! I just heard about the three cheese ziti and wonder if it is shelf stable or frozen? Anyone know?

It's frozen and yummy!

[HopefulVickie]

I was told the artichoke quesadilla is not coming. It was frozen and something happened with the manufacturer.

[theatrenut]

I think my counselor said the quesadilla was the same manufacturer as the chicken burrito (which I loved).

[Mermaid3011]

Mmmhhhhhh ... apple waffles sounds sooo good! I love it!
The chicken spinach mushroom panini sounds like the one that is already available from lean cuisine (which is also produced by Nestle, just like JC). I wouldnt be surprised if this was the same...

Actually yesterday I had the frozen cheese tortellini from lean cuisine and they were REALLY good! Even better than JC's cheese tortellini that are shelf stable! But of course I am curious how the Three Cheese Ziti Marinara come out!

Can't wait for the coffee cake! Hope it's somewhat substantial! The double chocolate cake was a little too small for my taste... one breath and it's gone!

[joan719]

It's funny how some JC foods and Lean Cuisine foods are 'rejects', or at least less favorable. I do agree that some Lean Cuisine foods have JC topped. I always choose the LC with lower sodium content. On the same hand, some JC foods are the best around. Go figure! Do love it when my favorite LC is on sale. Makes for a very budget friendly week.
PS: I don't recommend what I do, but for me it is working. Much success to everyone on the great JC program. Nothing compares!

[flwasun79]

Do we have frozen cheese tortellini in the US yet?? I feel like I've missed this!

[flwasun79]

Oops! Nevermind! Just saw that someone posted the tortellini was Lean Cuisine, not JC...no wonder why I missed it!!

[Mermaid3011]

Sorry Erika! I didnt want to misguide you!

Yes - I totally agree with Joan! For me using JC and LC works well - weightlosswise and budgetwise - but obviously it's up to everyone to decide what works best for them!

I work for JC as a Program Director. I'm sure your consultant will be getting the new soon as well. A few other things coming:
12/6 Chicken Marsala
11/8 Pumpkin Spice Snack Cakes
11/8 Turkey Cran Salad Kit
1/11 Asian Orange Chicken
2/21 Chicken Florentine Lasagna
4/21 Beef and Cheese Slider

It looks like the Veggie and Cheese Artichoke quesadilla will never come. There are many more foods in the conceptual phase.

Noooooooo! No vegetarian lunches on the horizon. Or even more vegetarian dinners. Starting to get disillusioned :/

[HopefulVickie]

I NEED my Wok Beef. Jenny you made me fall in love with it, get ADDICTED to it and then you took it away. I've tried to be patient.......

Thanks, Jill. How exciting to have such a reliable source. Now what can you do about my Wok Beef? ;-D

[flwasun79]

Oooh, the Turkey Cran salad kit sounds tasty! I will look forward to that Beef & Cheese Slider, too!
