Holiday Gift Baskets with Signature RESERVE

Holiday gift giving season is here! Use Safeway and Albertsons’ Signature Reserve™ to give gorgeous gift baskets for family, friends, neighbors and secret Santas! 

Disclosure: Safeway and Albertsons sponsored this post. As always, all opinions are my own. 

If you’ve got a foodie in your life, I have got a perfect gift idea! A holiday gift basket featuring all kinds of goodies from the Safeway and Albertsons Signature RESERVE line. I have been impressed with this line of products since my first experience with the ice cream earlier this year.

Safeway is my neighborhood grocery store so I am there on a pretty regular basis and have tried the line of products many times. I just love the quality and all of the different unique flavors that are available. Not to mention they are a great value for such a high-quality product.

How to fill a holiday gift basket:

Food gifts have always been one of my favorite go-to gift ideas for co-workers, friends, neighbors and secret Santa. They are always so unique and creative and they show just how much thought you’ve put into the gift. And I mean who doesn’t love receiving a basket filled to the brim with all kinds of goodies?

When gift-giving baskets, I am always looking for products that I know the person will love. I am looking for high quality products. Not to mention products that will look gorgeous in a gift basket. The Signature RESERVE line at Safeway and Albertsons is just that.

The products in this line offer an elevated culinary experience. They must pass a rigorous selection process to earn the Signature RESERVE label. The line includes teas, coffees, pasta sauces, pastas, candies, pie filling and ice creams. With such a selection, you are sure to find goodies to fill all kinds of gift baskets this season. And seriously, I’m kind of in love with the packaging.

The Perfect Pasta Gift Basket:

For my holiday gift basket, I decided to fill it with a collection of Signature RESERVE pasta sauces and pastas. Pasta is always a great thing to have on hand for busy nights so a basket filled with pastas and sauces is not only a gift of delicious pastas, it’s also a gift that will help make dinner a bit easier!

With Signature RESERVE pasta sauces, everyday weeknight dinners are elevated with slow cooked sauces. The sauce varieties include Truffle Mushroom, Tomato Parmesan, Pomodoro Marinara, Roasted Garlic and Tomato Basil. And every good pasta sauce, must also have a great pasta to pair with it, right? Safeway and Albertsons have got you covered there too!

The pastas in the Signature RESERVE line are cut using traditional bronze dies and slow dried. This creates a surface on the pastas that will absorb the perfect amount of pasta sauce. Because I also like to include sweet treats in my gift baskets, I also included a box of Signature RESERVE™ Dark Chocolate Covered Caramels. Creamy caramel, covered in dark chocolate and a sprinkle of sea salt? Talk about a great way to end a hearty pasta meal!
