Herb-Roasted New Potatoes

Posted on by Mission Community Market in Blog, Recipes, Sensory Revolution | Leave a comment


Here’s a super-easy potato recipe using Sensory Revolution‘s Green Herbal Mix. Because this unique herb mixture includes very finely-ground herbs, it blends easily with the oil and coat the potatoes extra-well, resulting in much brighter, bolder flavor than regular dried herbs.

Serve these alongside eggs for breakfast or brunch or with roasted chicken for dinner.

Ingredients

1 lb new potatoes, scrubbed and quartered
2 shallots, chopped
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Sensory Revolution Sensational Seasonings Green Herbal Mix
salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Mix all ingredients in a mixing bowl. Toss well to ensure all potatoes are well-coated with the herbs, oil, salt and pepper.

Bake for 15-18 minutes or until potatoes are golden brown and fully cooked.

Serves 4-6.

En Vie Naturals Pumpkin Body Butter

Posted on by Mission Community Market in Blog, En Vie Naturals | Leave a comment


En Vie Naturals is about to release a brand spanking new product line: Butter Me Up Body Butter. We got to try it in Pumpkin (just in time for Fall) and oh, is it good.

This creamy, smooth and divine-smelling body moisturizer gets most of its oomph from–believe it or not–baking soda. It was surprising to learn that the same white powder that makes muffins rise and keeps our fridges smelling fresh can also soothe skin, but apparently baking soda has long been known as a gentle, calming agent for cleansing and soothing skin (among many other things!).

This whipped body butter comes with a swirl of freshly ground cinnamon, scenting the skin with a warm fragrance that lingers throughout the day, thanks to the cinnamon’s natural oils. Though not heavy, skin stays soft for hours after application.

Make sure to visit Kim at the En Vie Naturals booth at the Mission Community Market to get your Butter Me Up in Pumpkin!
