YAKIMA, Wash., Feb. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- With home cooking taking on a whole new meaning these days, we are understandably hungry for new ingredients that bring fresh flavor and multiple uses. So, if you haven't discovered it yet, be sure to put the Cosmic Crisp® brand apple on the top of your must-try list.

And just in time for the biggest snacking day of the year, and the most romantic—Cosmic Crisp® is serving up new recipes and inspiration.
First up is a take on the themed food board craze that's beloved by social media for all the right reasons. From breakfast to happy hour, snack boards are designed to have something for everyone. But when you add Cosmic Crisp® apples, you get a Super Board. Perfect for game day (but also weeknight dinners or any other time), Cosmic Crisp's culinary partner Chadwick Boyd Lifestyle created a Super Board menu that will be the MVP of any table.

For hands-on game day snack inspo, the brand is hosting an Instagram Live event this week with food editor and author of the cookbook Live Life Deliciously, Tara Teaspoon (@tarateaspoon). Tara's book has a chapter dedicated to snack boards and is going to give viewers her play by play for a winning Super Board using Cosmic Crisp® apples. Apple fans will also be encouraged to share their Snack Board creations all month with the hashtag #CosmicCrisp for a chance to win a Snack Board set.
For Valentine's Day, the Cosmic Crisp® apple is featuring a trio of recipes that are simple to prepare, yet impressive to serve. Each one also features how uniquely versatile the apple is from roasting and cooking to baking. This is thanks to a perfectly balanced flavor, crisp texture, exceptional juiciness and striking color that took over 20 years of research, development and classic breeding to achieve. With increased volume this year, consumers will have a much easier time finding their new favorite that's exclusively grown in Washington State.
"Inspiring people to enjoy Cosmic Crisp® apples in new ways is what our brand is all about," said Kathryn Grandy, Chief Marketing Officer of Proprietary Variety Management, who is the company responsible for marketing the brand. "It's remarkable to have a fruit that really can be used for any type of cooking and baking. Because it is naturally slow to brown, it's really ideal for snack boards and entertaining. Now is a great time to find Cosmic Crisp® in grocery stores nationwide," she added.
