CHICAGO, Sept. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Home Chef, the leading meal solutions company with both a retail and online presence, announced today a new, limited-edition product line with U.S. gymnast and entrepreneur, Shawn Johnson East. Starting September 20, food enthusiasts can try Shawn's hand-picked favorite Home Chef recipes, including 12 Oven-Ready kits available through the online delivery service and two in-store Oven Kits at Kroger banner stores nationwide.

Shawn's favorite oven-ready meals include recipes such as Margherita Chicken with Garlic Parmesan Zucchini, Shrimp Tostadas with Guacamole and Salsa Verde, and Philly Cheesesteak Tacos with Mozzarella Cheese Sauce and Sweet Peppers.
