With more opportunities to host, the focus is turning to dishes that are easy to prepare, flexible to serve and built for sharing. <iframe class='gnw-snippetgallery' data-type='gnw-snippetgallery_en_1' style="width:100%; height:600px; border:0px;" src="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=HIK61NjAgoBvDCjDUAVAx--DE16Uugw2H_qkiFu9G1g0qzfed486UtIMCyW2daQRwG-cYjGMmSVE-7zDSiEc3F2M2f0lZUI1YoppbODWbPQ=" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=8vhRf5lUwbX9DwqggbacE-HRnKX3PDfSLBhpwawaWPwVT8wyOHmOkSMd4KFRyXidy5kAoUc8cl2Lk_TNAAkDGI5zme0tFkLcRXlo-XTBZ_wvlro1mF-BRF2u_U3Pe_AnNo1jRZ3IzTl1OmmpYAYbs_cCMMfHDpvuwDBU8JSZnugxviWnAP5G8WNIvKjSpnFDCSPH1Pm72LgRI532uAf1plPDaBhVKAvu9lEu7YO34Yg=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available by clicking on this link.">A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available by clicking on this link.</a> Menus are increasingly centered on familiar ingredients that can carry across multiple occasions. Foods that work as both a quick side and a more substantial dish are appealing to hosts looking to simplify prep without sacrificing flavor. Bush’s Baked Beans are a natural addition to that mix, pairing easily with classic cookout staples or serving as a base for shareable recipes. Culinary instructor and cookbook author Brooke Parkhurst says baked beans are a staple that help bring people together at the table.
