Rich in Flavor - Leo's Originals Specialty Dressings Are Artisan, Go Texan Products

BEAUMONT, Texas and HOUSTON, July 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Leo's Originals Specialty Dressings are known to Jason's Deli salad fans nationwide, and now the creator, Leo Danna is introducing his flavorful bottled dressing throughout Texas. The dressings are flying off the shelves at HEB and Mandola's Italian Market as customers are using them as marinades, pasta sauce, dipping sauces and salads dressings. 

Leo's Originals were born out of Leo Danna's childhood experiences growing up in a close Italian family, and spending time in the kitchen of the family restaurant.  Leo's love of family and strong Italian heritage led him to create the 'family original' salad dressing as a young man.

Leo is hands-on and involved in all aspects of creating the dressings and sauces. "My thing is finding the best combination of flavorful ingredients, and putting a healthy spin on the product," noted Leo. "I enjoy the fact that customers put these dressings on salads and also use them as marinades."
