“Fall’s arrival signals a host of fresh flavors that take advantage of the season’s bounty in recipes for breakfast through dinner,” said Cracker Barrel Chef Bill Kintzler. “Front and center this fall are our six fresh new sides. With the addition of fresh seasonal fruit, yogurt garnished with granola, and apple slices as breakfast sides, and baked sweet potato, brown rice pilaf, cucumber, tomato n’ onion salad, and fresh seasonal fruit as side choices for lunch and dinner, our guests now have an option of 20 sides. There’s a pretty good chance everyone in the family will find a flavor they’ll really enjoy.”
