You might be able to tell by my last few posts that I am in LOVE with The Standard Seasoning from Abuelito’s (#ad) and have officially given it as gifts twice so far this month! “Chef Wendel” at Abuelito’s and I came together a few months ago after I was so impressed with the sauces and seasonings, that I wanted to partner with them to feature some of his offerings! Though I have other recipes to brag about using Abuelito’s, I want to put those on hold this week so we can talk about Thanksgiving prep – and holiday prep in general. Every dish on this year’s table will be made with various amou ..read more

It’s chili season!! And if you ask me, it’s the best thing about the weather turning cold and the skies going from blue to grey. Ya’ got colorful leaves, ya’ got football games and ya’ got warm, zesty, comforting chili. There’s a very good chance you have your own favorite chili recipe and sometimes they include special ingredients like dark chocolate and cinnamon. But I want to introduce to a different seasoning that adds an incredible depth of smokiness and a touch of sweetness to the meal and I promise you’ll love it. It’s a Abuelito’s Cafe Blend coffee rub (#ad) and it CHANGES THE GAME. I ..read more

Ok. This is a burger recipe. But it’s a SPECIAL burger recipe for two reasons. Firstly, once you try mustard-frying your patties, you’ll ever go back. And secondly, I have a go-to seasoning that has truly changed the game for me. I’ve partnered with Abuelito’s Sauces and Rubs (#ad) because I use their products so often, it just makes sense! But there’s one blend that I LITERALLY use every single day and it’s happily sprinkled into these burgers as well. It’s called The Standard and it’s the perfect blend of salt, pepper and garlic and it’s downright magical. Even the size of the crystals is pe ..read more

With football season upon us and the heatwaves finally in the rearview mirror, it’s time to focus on gooey, delicious finger foods that get everyone cheering in time for kickoff! Mozzarella sticks are the highlight of every get-together. Everyone pushes the bowl of pretzels aside when these puppies come out of the kitchen. But as much as I love the original, the same old stick-and-sauce can get a little boring. I like a little heat and a kiss of sweet in my snacks so I teamed up with Abuelito’s Sauces and Seasonings (#ad) to make my sticks with Caribbean Heat and they will KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OF ..read more

What is more universally loved than kabobs? They’re easy to make on the grill or in the oven and talk about versatile! Any protein, veggie (along with many fruits) and seasoning you can think of mixes beautifully on a kabob. So why Cuban kabobs this time? I was approached by a very cool little company called Abuelito’s and I gave a bunch of their products a try. Some GREAT stuff! I used their Caribbean Heat Marinade and the Island Breeze rub for the kabobs. Meanwhile, I love pairing meat with a little heat with a nice cool, creamy sauce. Enter, the cilantro avocado cream sauce. It is soooo sm ..read more

I LOVE risotto and was quite proud of myself when I first came up with a keto risotto. I still make it when I have the time and ingredients.
