Masala Chai Tea
Based on Cari Karonis’ at home recipe for chai, we can't get enough of this warming spice blend. Cari is a founder of SKORDO and coffee enthusiast. She’s been making a version of the blend for years and the decision to add it to our collection was a long time coming. This aromatic, spicy Masala Chai Spice Blend will warm not only your body but your soul too.
Moon Drink
Turmeric is a spice superhero and provides too many benefits to count, so the drink is still very immune boosting. It was certainly a hit, served either warm or cold.
Clove + Ginger Lemonade Elixer
This recipe from Upgrade Your Immunity by Dr. Joseph Mercola is meant to be sipped early in the morning, on an empty stomach, to stimulate digestion and begin some detoxification. Plus, the cinnamon will regulate your blood sugar. It was a nice jumpstart to the morning!
Mushroom Latte
A fun variation from a morning coffee, this mushroom latte from Upgrade Your Immunity by Dr. Joseph Mercola is a great way to introduce the immune boosting effects of mushrooms without having to cook them into a meal.
Jerk Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Sometimes you remove the carbs and cheese and you really miss them. That was not the case with this recipe, and that's all to do with the powerful flavor of Jerk Seasoning. We hand blend coconut sugar, onion, garlic, paprika, allspice, and more to create this unique and iconic blend. This classic spicy Jamaican blend adds a ton of flavor to otherwise boring chicken breast, and the creamy Greek Yogurt sauce on top plus your favorite sweet salsa is a delicious combination. We ate this last weekend for dinner, wanting to eat healthy after a weekend of fried food, and it was (literally) finger-licking good. We've never been to Jamaica, but this recipe will help pass the time until we can try more from this delicious cuisine. Give it a try!
Orzo Salad with Grilled Vegetables + Greek Seasoning
Our Greek Seasoning is the perfect compliment to your favorite veggies from the garden. This salad has become our go-to for a simple and delicious side for a group as it works well with veggies that are grilled or roasted and can be served warm or room temperature. Make the components ahead of time and toss together prior to serving. Serves 10 and leftovers keep well in the fridge.
(The Best) Lemon + Oregano Greek Potatoes
These will be the best Greek potatoes you've ever tasted...crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. All with a wonderful lemon, garlic, and oregano flavor. They go well with any Greek dish, but especially roast lamb or lamb chops. But of course they're still also wonderful cold, for breakfast, right out of the fridge!
Grilled Greek Lamb Chops
Greek grilled lamb chops make an impressive dish for a special occasion or company, but are very simple to make. Our family's Greek Lamb Rub has all the Mediterranean flavors that pair so well with lamb: garlic, Greek oregano, cinnamon, nutmeg, parsley.
Spicy Sautéed Shiitakes
This recipe from Vegetable Simple by Eric Ripert is a great staple to have on hand for snacks or sides. From start to finish it truly only takes 5 minutes! I used dried mushrooms, and finished with SKORDO Sriracha Sea Salt + SKORDO Herbes de Provence, these are all pantry staples for me so this was perfect.
Room Temperature Hericots Verts with Black Truffle + Sesame
Who knew Aleppo Chile Flakes and Black Truffle Salt went together so well? Vanessa Seder did. This recipe from Vanessa's cookbook 'Eat Cool: Good Food for Hot Days' had us convinced it was the best version of haricot verts we've ever had. Haricot verts are the more refined version of green beans; they are thinner, longer and straighter and more refined in taste. This dish is great for summer or fall parties because it can be served room temperature or even cold, and the beans stay firm throughout the party. Enjoy!
Grilled Vegetables with Tuscan Oil + Herb Dressing
This herb and spice blend dressing is delicious on grilled vegetables or a traditional salad. The Tuscan Oil Blend has a medium heat because of the crushed red pepper flakes - adjust for your taste. We've listed the vegetables we used (what we had in our pantry/garden), but you can use whatever vegetables you like. Asparagus, eggplant, green onions, or bell peppers would also be delicious.
Za'atar Zucchini and Mascarpone Slab Galette
The perfect recipe for all the zucchinis available this time of year, Za'atar Zucchini and Mascarpone Slab Galette... we made this at our big family dinner the other night and even the meat lovers were coming back for seconds. We love the flaky, buttery cornmeal crust (it actually has flavor!), and the creamy mascarpone paired with toasted spices and zucchini make a wonderfully delicious dish.
