Healthy Choice, a brand of Conagra Brands, Inc. (NYSE: CAG) that is helping to reinvigorate the frozen category with its recent innovations, is extending its popular Power Bowls line into breakfast with four new varieties. The launch of morning Power Bowls provides health-conscious, time-starved consumers with a quick, healthy, nutrient-dense addition to breakfast in a popular bowl format.
“Breakfast is really important to our health and well-being, yet people often make a lot of sacrifices when it comes to the first meal of the day,” said Tara Rozalowsky, Healthy Choice Brand Director. “Healthy Choice Morning Power Bowls really deliver on a lot of what we’re seeking in the morning or any time of day really: something quick and healthy that tastes good because it’s packed with flavorful, nutrient dense ingredients.”

In fact, more than 60 percent of Americans are trying to make smart swaps in their diet each day or each week to eat a little less meat without losing out on the importance of protein within their overall health goals.**
