Hi there. My name is Kate Ord and I'm the marketing director for Great Harvest. I think I'm the luckiest gal in the marketing profession. I work for an amazing company and my office is right above the test kitchen. Great Harvest attracts fun, entrepreneurial, community-minded bakery owners. It's a great crowd to run with. One of my favorite responsibilities is helping bakery owners live out the Great Harvest mission of
giving generously to others. In 2009, Great Harvest bakery owners nationwide donated more than 400 tons of whole grain products to places like homeless shelters, youth centers, food banks, soup kitchens, and other nonprofits serving children and families in crisis. I'm humbled and grateful everyday.
So being a foodie, I was invited to post a favorite way to use our bread. With the Super Bowl coming up, I thought I'd share what I'm serving this year. I'm going to hollow out a large round loaf of Honey Whole Wheat and fill it with chili. I surround the bowl with blue tortilla chips. It becomes a centerpiece. Just ladle into bowls. I also provide shredded cheese, salsa, chopped onions, avocado and sour cream to add. Great Harvest has some great chili mixes. I like them because they're all natural, no salt, no MSG or preservatives. I substitute the "hearty beef" with range-fed buffalo meat. Living in southwestern Montana has its benefits. Buffalo meat is lean and rich tasting and a perfect complement to fresh, hearty bread. That's where the "Cowboy" toast comes in. I grill Cheddar Garlic on the BBQ. Just slice it, drizzle with olive oil and grill for a couple minutes on each side.
