Domino’s rockin’ rocket revolutionises eating leafy greens

Yes, you read correctly!

If facing a plateful of leafy greens is something you’ve always dreaded, then get in line for Domino’s new Super Premium Range, with not just one, but five delicious pizzas featuring fresh, peppery rocket that makes eating your vegetables… enjoyable!

Featured on Domino’s new Loaded Chicken & Parmesan, Smoked Salmon, Parmesan & Rocket, BBQ Meats Deluxe, Smokey Beef Brisket & Prawn, and Roasted Vegetable Deluxe pizzas, rocket is rich in vitamins C, E, B and K, along with amino acids, chlorophyll, and a whole range of other nutrients that are good for you.

LEAFY GOODNESS: Farm-fresh Stanthorpe-grown rocket

So, where do we source this incredibly tasty and out of this world leafy green from?

Answer: From farms all across Queensland!

Let us explain.

Domino’s rocket supplier, PM Fresh is an Australian-owned producer, which provides Domino’s with fresh ingredients straight from the farm to our franchisees.

Flourishing in warmer winter weather, inland southern Queensland is the perfect climate for rocket to thrive, with PM Fresh sourcing this healthy new ingredient from farms across Gatton, Toowoomba and Stanthorpe.

Bryce Henderson, a local Stanthorpe rocket farmer since 2003, says he is honoured to be able to deliver Aussies that farm fresh taste they know and love.  

HARVEST READY: Stanthorpe rocket is harvested ready to be used on Domino’s pizzas

“From seed to leaf, we are very proud of the rocket we grow, and are delighted to be supplying Domino’s with one of the ingredients for its new Super Premium Range.

“It’s very rewarding to know our fresh produce is being enjoyed by thousands of Australians every day.”

Rocket begins as a seed, which is sowed in sunny fields. In as little as six to seven weeks, the rocket is then ready to be harvested – meaning this ingredient really is straight from farm to ‘pizza box’.

Making for a tangy, refreshing addition, Domino’s rocket pairs perfectly with parmesan, pumpkin, and hot smoked salmon – all local, Australian grown ingredients featured in Domino’s new Super Premium Range!

So, whether you’re upping your ‘five-a-day’ veggie intake, or just want a crunchy addition to your pizza, why not try a slice of a new Domino’s rocket topped pizza – we promise you won’t rock-gret it!
