RE: Green Chile Pesto Prawns
Hi Greg,
Unfortunatley, we don’t sell Greenwell products.
The closest item to this recipe that we do carry is a frozen entrée: Bueno brand Green Chili Chicken Stew.
Hope this helps out!

Green Chile Pesto Prawns
This recipe sounds great, but I can't stay on my feet a lot (neuropathy). I'm wondering if PCC stocks Greenwell & Co.'s Green Chile Stew? I know I've purchased it at PCC's pricier prime competitor but also want to think PCC carries it, too. I've found it an appropriate substitute when my feet aren't up to standing in the kitchen. It, too, is pricy, but I make it carry over for several entrees.
