LUMPIA

Of course lumpia should be available! It’s a crowd pleaser and frying them up inside saves some space on the BBQ for meat!

BBQ Skewers

Got a last minute invite and don’t know what to bring? BBQ Skewers from Turo Turo Gourmet are a perfect go-to. Just pick them up from the frozen aisle on your way to the party and show off the flavor of perfectly marinated pork and chicken.

DIM SUM

Serve up gourmet Dim Sum, ready in minutes with Bestaste Siopao. Our dough tastes like a heavenly cloud, with a hearty meat filling. These are the perfect snack or part of a complete BBQ.

TOCINO

Tocino is amazing on the grill! The pork and chicken marinades go to the next level on the barbeque. Available in pork and chicken.

MAGNOLIA HOT DOGS

No Memorial Day Barbecue would be complete without a perfectly grilled hot dog! Check out Magnolia’s flavorful take on the American classic, available three sizes to fit your hunger level: cocktail, regular, and super jumbo for the ambitious.

Guacamole For Dessert?! Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with Avocado Ice Cream!

Magnolia Ice Cream Made with Real California Hass Avocados is a Fiesta in a Pint!

Avocado Ice Cream is an unforgettable flavor sensation... in a good way! While it sounds crazy to some, avocados have been eaten as frozen desserts in tropical climates for centuries. Magnolia Ice Cream by California based gourmet food company; Ramar Foods, has been making all-natural tropical ice creams for over 40-years, with pasture-raised dairy and whole fruit purees.

When most Americans hear the word “Avocado,” instinctively the next word that comes to mind in “Guacamole.” For this year’s Cinco de Mayo celebrations, delight fiesta guests with a treat of the senses, Avocado Ice Cream paired with chips or cinnamon pita chips for dessert!

Avocado more commonly refers to the fruit than the avocado plant, which is a tree. Botanically, the avocado fruit is a large berry that contains a single seed. The avocado plant is a tree native to Mexico and Central America, and is classified in the flowering plant family Lauraceae, same as cinnamon.

Magnolia Avocado Ice Cream has only 220 calories per half cup, so feel good about enjoying naturally decadent ice cream. Additionally, avocado is the third ingredient, behind calcium rich "milk" and "cream,” so enjoy some essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, potassium, and vitamins C, E, K, and B6 and -- all in the form of ice cream!

Viva la Avocado!
