Salsas

Growing up in California, fresh salsa was found at every table, at every meal. I learned at an early age that a really great salsa is always fresh, handmade from ripe tomatoes, real chilies and only the freshest ingredients … more

Burritos

Someone once told me “you know Californians miss home when they start talking about burritos.” I think there’s some truth to that. There is nothing quite like the flavourful, satisfying taste of a burrito … more

Pre-Made Meals

No-nonsense food I grew up with. Breakfast Burritos, Enchiladas, Nachos are just a few of my favourites. Pre-made with real, wholesome food for your fridge or freezer. Just pop in the oven for 15 mins for a delicious, convenient Mexican meal. … more

Tamales

A staple during Christmas, this traditional Mexican dish may take time to prepare, but is well worth the wait! Tamales are one of the many staples of our traditional diet. But unlike tortillas and salsa, they hold a special meaning, coming solely for celebrations, holidays and weddings. … more

No one really knows who first came up with the Sal No one really knows who first came up with the Salsa name. It's tied to the Salsa musicians who would cheer dancers on with an exclamation of "Salsa!" to stir them up before playing a lively tune.

However, neither the dance nor the music can compare with the long life of the condiment. As early as 1571, the Spanish monk Alonso de Molino coined the name "salsa" for Aztec sauce preparations. The early beginnings of the yummy salsas we enjoy today.

Just how does Salsa music and dance relate to the delicious condiment? 

Regardless of which type of salsa you choose –  eating through a tub of salsa while blasting Celia Cruz right before hitting the dance floor — it seems that salsa brings the spice to life.

It's definitely cherished in our family!

The humble burrito is a great lesson in life. Too The humble burrito is a great lesson in life.

Too often, we try to make what we do exceptionally complex instead of trying to simplify it. We hide behind buzzwords, we present ourselves in such a way that hides the basic thoughts we’re trying to convey. 
 
The same thing happens with burritos. We add the unnecessary toppings and ingredients. In Mexico, the traditional burrito represents a way to make use of common and beloved ingredients - tortillas, beans, salsa, seasonings, meat (or no meat for vegetarian or vegan 😀).

The next time you’re in a complex situation, think of the humble Mexican burrito. Keep it simple but make each piece spectacular!
