Cook Gourmet at Home & Savor the Savings!



With gas prices at an all time high, the cost of everything is going up, including eating out. Here at NP, we want to help you treat yourself and your family without breaking the bank. Why not try creating a restaurant-quality meal at home! It is easier than you think when you shop at NP.

GOURMET FIXIN’S
When you fill your basket with our locally grown produce, natural, local meats, and gourmet sauces and oils, you are starting with gourmet ingredients. All you have to do is cook and combine them to create a gourmet meal! We will even provide recipe ideas.

GREAT ON THE GRILL
In this summer season, grilling is a great way to keep the heat out of the kitchen, and make a delicious meal. What a great way to celebrate Father’s Day, graduation, Fourth of July, and more! Cooking outside is not only fun, it really helps it feel like a party!

Our natural, local pork and lamb make the perfect centerpiece for your meal. And try a few of our marinades or sauces to add gourmet flair without the fancy-restaurant price. Our fresh, locally grown produce is so fresh and delicious, it is easy to make into a gourmet meal. Try grilling halved peppers and onions and then toss them with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar for a fantastic side dish!

Fruit is another thing that is great on the grill. Try halving plums and grilling them, then serving them with a dab of goat cheese in the center. Or grill peach halves, then dice them and serve on grilled ciabiatta toast with gorgonzola. Yum!

Sure, you still have to do dishes, but you can linger at your table as long as you like! And you can feel good knowing you created that meal for your family using the freshest, locally grown meats and produce around.

WONDERFUL WINES
For many people, wine is an important part of a gourmet meal. We have an outstanding selection of delicious wines, and when you serve it at home, you can feel good knowing you paid retail price instead of restaurant price!

We hope to see you in the store soon!
