December 17, 2014

Boston Pizza has teamed up with Hockey Canada and Dietitian Kelly Anne Erdman to launch a new Athlete's Choice menu. According to a company announcement, the menu is designed to provide energy, as well as the right amount of sodium and fat, to fuel athletes.

"Boston Pizza has always been a destination for sports fans, but it's also a place where athletes and sports teams love to dine," VP of Marketing Joanne Forrester said in a news release. "As we head into the busy winter sports season, we're excited to give athletes and parents everything they need to fuel up so they can play their best."

Erdman, a cycling Olympian and performance dietitian at the Canadian Sport Institute Calgary, worked closely with Boston Pizza and Hockey Canada to develop the menu.

The Athlete’s Choice menu is available at all Boston Pizza locations and includes dishes such as:

• Grilled Chicken Garden Greens;
• Sriracha Chicken pizza, a pizza topped with sriracha sauce, mozzarella, Sriracha chicken and sesame seeds, green onions, cilantro and a Sriracha mayo drizzle;
• Whole Wheat Pollo Marinara Linguini with signature marinara sauce with diced chicken breast, red onions and wok-steamed red and green pepper on whole wheat noodles;
• NY Striploin Steak, a 10-ounce New York striploin steak, served with garlic toast, seasonal vegetables and choice of side;
• Chicken Calzone, multigrain pizza dough folded Italian-style, stuffed with diced chicken breast, green pepper, chopped tomato, pizza mozzarella, chopped cilantro and bruschetta mix.
