Chicken Cacciatore

Big thanks to our friends at Country Roads Magazine for this swoon-worthy recipe. Braised chicken cacciatore becomes a lighter, quicker dish with white wine and Italian Herbs Olive Oil. You could happily use that extra time to whip up homemade pasta, perfect for catching every bit of this bold tomato sauce.

Mocha Latte Crinkle Cookies

Chocolate and coffee…these are two of our favorite things. We’ve combined them in these fun and delicious cookies. We love the the double delivery of espresso from our Espresso Salt and Espresso Extract. Adding coffee flavors to chocolate desserts adds depth and umph to the chocolate.

Rooibos Tea Sports Drink

Sports drinks provide important post-workout hydration. A good balance of sodium, magnesium and carbohydrates are essential to properly hydrate and restore electrolytes. We set out to make our own sports drink and chose vitamin-rich Rooibos tea and mineral-rich Himalayan Salt for a non-caffeinated, delicious drink filled with anti-inflammatory and restorative benefits.

Emma’s Black Bean Burger

Anne’s daughter Emma came up with this recipe for her favorite vegetarian meal. These patties freeze well which makes for dinner in a snap.

Healthy and irresistible – we love that combo! Our Roasted Garlic Avocado Oil is the perfect compliment to the slightly tangy and satisfyingly savory Cranberry Maple Rub or our rich and spicy Dark la Mesa Chili Powder. The result is a terrific snack or side that is sure to become a suppertime staple.

Moroccan Salmon with Honey Ginger Glaze

The smoky-warm spices in the Moroccan Blend are in great company with rich salmon. The cinnamon, clove, chiles and smoked paprika in the Moroccan Blend are the perfect backdrop for the sweet, syrupy Honey Ginger Balsamic glaze. A delicious combo for this salmon. A great weeknight – or any night – meal.

Grilled Caprese Sandwich

A Caprese salad with its ripe tomatoes, creamy mozzarella and bright basil, what could be better? Put all of that in a sandwich…much better! We created thick, syrupy jam by popping cherry tomatoes with our 18 Year Balsamic, and subbed in our Basil Extra Virgin Olive Oil for the fresh herb. The result? Sandwich heaven.
