What is this one-pot meal? Extra Full is one of a kind for Mississippi! Each package includes a four-serving, one-pot meal that can be prepared in 30 minutes or less. The Southern Red Beans and Rice meal uses Two Brooks Farm rice grown in the Mississippi Delta, red beans, and a spice and vitamin mix. It’s high in fiber, low in sodium, and has 22 vitamins and minerals - important items that food-insecure Mississippians' diets lack. Extra Full provides nutrition while encouraging families to gather together around the dinner table. As many Mississippians lack access to food, Extra Full is a new and delicious source of nourishment through.

This project will be the first partnership with the Vicksburg Young Professionals and Vicksburg Warren County Chamber of Commerce!
