Produced and distributed by Unilever (NYSE: UL, UN), one of the world's largest consumer products companies, P.F. Chang's Home Menu frozen noodle entrees feature premium Asian vegetables, high-quality protein and unique "noodle nests" that unravel in the skillet midway through cooking as the noodles get coated in a flavor-packed sauce, ensuring the delicate noodles maintain their trademark textures. The two-serving P.F. Chang's Home Menu noodle meals are available in four varieties:

• Garlic Chicken with Dan Dan Noodles – White meat chicken with a savory garlic sauce, bell peppers, bok choy and yakisoba noodles
• Pepper Steak with Chow Fun Noodles – Steak with a sweet and peppery sauce, bell peppers, onions and chow fun noodles
• Grilled Chicken Teriyaki with Lo Mein Noodles – Grilled chicken with a teriyaki sauce, pineapple, red bell peppers, onions and lo mein noodles
• Firecracker Shrimp with Yakisoba Noodles – Lightly battered shrimp with spicy sauce, carrots, edamame, onions and yakisoba noodles

"Noodles have become one of the most popular trends in the culinary world, but until now, options for packaged noodle dishes were limited," said Rogier Smeets, Senior Marketing Manager at Unilever. "After the success of the initial P.F. Chang's Home Menu line introduced last year, we wanted to give P.F. Chang's fans new ways to enjoy their favorite meals when they can't get to the restaurant, and noodles were at the top of our list."
