Located inside of salad eatery Sprout on Maplewood Avenue, Hazel's Country Kitchen is open for pick-up and delivery Tuesday through Saturdays, 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The idea is simple: Meat + 3. Customers choose a protein, then add three sides.

Protein options include fried chicken, the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, homestyle meatloaf, southwestern pulled chicken sandwich and the cauliflower steak with house-made chimichurri sauce.

Side options include sweet corn niblets, pinto beans, butter bean salad, macaroni and cheese, fried apples, mashed potatoes, fried cauliflower and southern-style green beans.

A value-conscious specialty of the house is the family-friendly Hazel’s Barn Box: it includes 8 pieces of Fried Chicken, a pint of mashed potatoes, and 4 pieces of house-baked corn bread for $25.99.

Hazel's Country Kitchen is located inside of Sprout, 181A Maplewood Ave., open 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays, for pickup and delivery.
