These are busy times. We work long hours, people come and go at different times. It seems hard to cook a nice healthy meal or plan meals ahead of time. As you could imagine after cooking all day at our factory it seems silly that I cannot wait to get home to cook dinner. Many times I am deciding on the way home what to cook. My seasonings are me, they are the way I cook. My theme is Home Made Easy tm They make it so easy to plan dinner. I merely need to figure out what meat I need to stop and get or what I have sitting in the refrigerator. Sometimes I have a couple hours to cook and other times I go from the garage directly to the kitchen and in less then 30 minutes we are eating. It might be 8 or 9 PM but it will be a healthier meal than take out or pizza.
Saturday evening I noticed I had a bag (3 lbs) of kale strips with carrots (ok, this isn't for every one) but I didn't want it to go to waste so I washed it, dried it, sprinkled on some olive oil, Salad and Vegetable Seasoning, Sea Salt and roasted it on a cookie sheet in the oven. I did this at 375 for about 15 minutes. I heard that it is horrible if it burns so I watched it closely. I have been munching on it since then. Tonight we got home late so I made sandwiches with the addition of this roasted kale (they weren't quite chips) What a great flavor.
One of the reasons my products are all natural with no MSG, no preservatives, and no fillers is that I cannot eat such things myself. I get sick, as many people do. Some are not even aware of what is getting them sick. I am not a health nut but I do know the importance of nutrition. I am well educated on food and food preparation. And since I Incorporated Arizona Spice Company I have proven that all of these sauces and seasonings can be made without them and taste better!
It was so hard to read every label in the store for what I could or couldn't eat. I started cooking from scratch 30 years ago. This is where my passion lies. Cooking naturally and helping other people with a family recipe get FDA compliant.
Thank you!
