Crispy Chicken Sandwich

Not only are chicken sandwiches hard to resist, but they are also easy to prepare. Simply fry up a precooked, frozen, breaded chicken filet and place on top of your favorite roll or bun. These versatile beauties can be topped with everything from lettuce and tomato to pickles and coleslaw.

Onion Ring Tower with Dipping Sauce

Sometimes all diners are looking for is a good, solid appetizer. Onion ring towers are both filling and fun! Best of all they take very little effort to put together. Deep-fry your favorite brand of frozen onion rings. You will want to have a variety of sizes both big and small, this will help you build your tower. Serve them up with a variety of dipping sauces like ranch, ketchup, or a spicy mayo.

Caprese Panini

This is basically the adult version of a grilled cheese. Trade in your white bread and American cheese for slices of hearty ciabatta and a creamy mozzarella. Don’t forget to add freshy cut tomato and basil in between! For an extra punch of flavor, drizzle a bit of garlic on your bread before assembling your panini.

Loaded Fries

Who doesn’t love French fries? Especially when they are topped with BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese, and bacon bits! But why stop there? You can even try drizzling your fries with melted cheese, salsa, and sour cream for a south of the border twist. Heck, you could even build an entire menu around loaded fries alone!

Mini Churros with Dipping Sauce

Dessert shouldn’t be difficult. It should be short and sweet, just like mini churros! Premade, frozen mini churros are the tasty treat that every menu needs. The little pieces of heaven fry up quickly and go great with a number of different dipping sauces. From a fresh strawberry sauce to a decadent, melted, dark chocolate or caramel, you’ll be hard pressed to find one your patrons don’t love!
