Publisher’s Plate

A Northern Colorado Food Series by North Forty News

Real meals. Real reviews. Real flavor — delivered.


Welcome to The Publisher’s Plate

Each week, Blaine Howerton — publisher of North Forty News — invites you into his kitchen to explore a better way to eat at home.

We’re talking about chef-quality ingredients, delicious recipes, and farm-to-freezer freshness — all made possible by our partner, Passanante’s Home Food Services.

This isn’t about another trendy food fad or a pile of cardboard meal kits. It’s about reclaiming dinner, reconnecting with food, and making quality time around the table a whole lot easier.

Why We’re Featuring It

As a publisher, Blaine sees hundreds of products and services cross his desk every year. Very few make it to his plate.
Passanante’s did — and it changed how he shops, cooks, and eats at home.

In The Publisher’s Plate, Blaine shares honest reviews, behind-the-scenes photos, and authentic recipes made with Passanante’s food. Whether it’s a weeknight stir-fry or a special weekend roast, every meal is a reminder that great food starts with great ingredients.
