Helpful videos for cooking these new items at home, pairing suggestions, full ingredients and recipe ideas can be found on Chef Irvine’s website.

Focusing on quality ingredients, Chef Irvine carefully crafted the Sidekicks line to easily pair with other main dishes. To ensure availability across the United States, he exclusively approached Walmart with his line due to the company’s strong distribution and trusted name.
