Over the past few weeks, we have literally been eating like the Easter Bunny. Salad…almost every night. When Whole Foods opened a couple of weeks ago, the kind rep from Earthgrown Organics gave me a few Buy One Get One Free coupons. Then, the extra nice people over at Sprouts decided to run a sale of BOGO free salads. What does that mean? A LOT of free salad! So I had to get creative. This creamy Avocado Cilantro Dressing was a great alternative to classic vinaigrettes. It was perfect on taco salad and a great and tasty spread on sandwiches too.
Now, what is a taco salad without a delicious margarita? Non festive. And I hate being non festive. That’s where this delicious Bare Mixers comes into play. After all, what’s the point of eating salads all week just to an extra 1000 calories from the WAY overly sweet grocery store margarita mix? Bare Mixers is an all natural, low-calorie and agave sweetened Margarita Mix. It has the perfect balance between sweet and sour. When we first tried the mixer, it was served as a whiskey sour which was equally as delicious as the margarita.
Bare Mixers wants you to try a bottle too!
