Berbere Spiced Pecans
Berbere is a traditional Ethiopian spice blend and is a staff favorite. We love this spicy-sweet-spicy (did we mention spicy) blend. It’s a must for lentils. We love it on grilled chicken thighs. This is a fun blend that really makes an impact. We served these at a store event and received tons of requests for...
Green Goddess Dressing
We love this tarragon-rich, throwback dressing. It’s fantastic as a dip for a veggie tray. We love it in place of caesar for dressing romaine lettuce. It’s also fantastic in our California Chicken Wraps. Bright and fresh and so full of flavor!

Drunken Shrimp
Whether you tuck this shrimp into a tortilla, use them to top a salad or pile them onto pasta, there won’t be a drop left when you cook up this quick dish. We used Mexican Modelo as the bubbling liquid and season the shrimp with Fajita Blend. Add in onion, garlic and jalapeno – couldn’t...
