Grecian Delight | Kronos Wins 2025 FABI Awards for Plant-Based Vegetable Innovation
Avocado Hummus and Chickpea-Vegetable Bites Shine at the National Restaurant Association Show
Grecian Delight | Kronos, a leader in Mediterranean-inspired plant-forward cuisine, proudly announces its recognition as a 2025 FABI Award winner by the National Restaurant Association Show. The prestigious award highlights three vegetable-based culinary innovations:
🥑 Avocado Hummus
🥬 Pre-Cooked Chickpea Bites – Spanakopita
🥒 Pre-Cooked Chickpea Bites – Zucchini
The Avocado Hummus reinvents a classic with a smooth blend of ripe avocados, chickpeas, tahini, garlic, and lime juice — delivering vibrant, refreshing flavor in every bite. It’s perfect for pairing with raw veggies, flatbreads, or as a stand-alone dip on plant-based menus.
The Pre-Cooked Chickpea Bites offer two versatile, veggie-rich options:
-
Spanakopita-style: Chickpeas combined with spinach and herbs
-
Zucchini-style: A savory blend of chickpeas and grated zucchini
These bites are fully cooked and pre-portioned for easy use — ideal as starters, protein toppers on salads, or flavorful plant-powered additions to bowls and wraps.
“Winning three FABI Awards in one year is a testament to our dedication to creating plant-forward foods that are flavorful, functional, and easy for foodservice operators to integrate,” said Michael Paribello, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Retail Sales at Grecian Delight | Kronos. “We’re proud to offer vegetables and legumes in exciting new formats that meet modern culinary demands.”
FABI Award winners are selected by a panel of independent industry experts based on innovation, taste, and operational value. The recognized products will be showcased at the 2025 National Restaurant Association Show, May 17–20 in Chicago, IL.
