Serve 8-10 People with Make-Ahead Recipes, Perfect Wine Pairings & Fast Online Grocery Ordering

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., May 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Summer is around the corner (at least that's what the calendar says!), so it's time to invite a few of your closest friends to enjoy fresh fare in the fresh air. Enter the Uncork Summer Occasions Plan from meal inspiration leader eMeals with wine pairings from best-selling wineries such as 19 Crimes, Matua and Stags' Leap Winery. It's an alfresco menu for 8-10 people with simple but special recipes that can largely be prepared ahead, ensuring that you have enough energy to enjoy your company as well as your own cooking. Check it out on the free Uncork Summer landing page or in the Occasions Plan in the eMeals app for subscribers.

Serve up the season: The festivities begin with Chilled Sweet Corn Soup made with fresh corn and garnished with basil and avocado. The main course is anchored by Pan-Seared Halibut topped with a pan sauce of garlic, lemon, white wine and parsley and accompanied by Pearled Couscous tossed with fresh spinach and chopped tomatoes, Roasted Asparagus sprinkled with crispy garlic breadcrumbs, and a Watermelon and Arugula Salad with cucumber, red onion, feta cheese, fresh mint and basil nestled in a lime vinaigrette. Finish it off with Miniature Strawberry-Raspberry Mascarpone Trifles for a layered dessert that's part taste sensation, part work of art.

Pair it perfectly: Light and bright to match the menu, the wine pairings range from 19 Crimes Martha's Chard named after business dynamo Martha Stewart to Stags' Leap Winery's Napa Valley Chardonnay and two different Matua Sauvignon Blancs from New Zealand, including Matua Lighter with tropical fruity flavors, citrus notes and just 80 calories per serving.

Tap to shop: Simply select the recipes you want to make from the eMeals mobile app or the Uncork Summer Occasions Plan landing page, and eMeals will automatically generate a shopping list you can use to self-shop at your local grocery store or tap for online grocery fulfillment from Amazon, Walmart, Kroger or any of the retailers served by Instacart and Shipt. Bonus? You save time by eliminating the need to write a grocery list or enter items one by one in an online shopping cart.
