Have been meaning to write a post for so long but the little one along with home and work are keeping me real busy. If you are a new mom like me or in general busy in life, I have something for you that you will love. You can now have your very own Sous Chef, thanks to Dorot Gardens! No more washing, chopping, and peeling of fresh herbs, ginger & garlic. Yay!!!
I've been using Dorot Garden products for a while now. First time was when found these while shooting my Basil Ginger Lemonade. Have been using these ever since. What I like about them is -
- easily available now in most local Kroger stores in the frozen vegetables isle.
- super cute packaging
- pre-portioned cubes (1 cube equals 1 tsp).
- full of fresh flavors as they are flash frozen within 90 minutes of harvest
- real easy to use, requires no chopping, peeling and cutting so no mess, no clean up. Just pop a cube out directly into your recipe and you are set!
Sometimes (or most times when I really need it) I’m out of Cilantro but having these cubes available in my freezer all year long makes such a big difference. They bring real flavors to table. Like in this recipe. addition of cilantro to the baked beans makes it so flavorful.
The Baked Beans on Garlic Toast is a simple yet delicious recipe that can be served as snack or appetizer or even as a breakfast dish topped with egg. Its wholesome and nutritious meal. Its super easy and quick to make too due to Dorot Garden products.
