1/4 - 1/2 cup salsa verde
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
juice from 1 lime

Mix all ingredients together and serve with tortilla chips
EASIEST SALAD DRESSING EVER!
2 parts extra virgin olive oil
1 part balsamic vinegar
any blend of EARTH & SEA SALTS (I definitely recommend grinding the salt in a mortar & pestle for this recipe)
fresh ground pepper
Mix ingredients in a cup and stir with a fork or just put individual ingredients directly onto salad
A variation of this dressing is to use fresh-squeezed lemon juice instead of vinegar and add a little raw honey - yummy!

BAKED CHICKEN
Lay chicken pieces in baking pan
Rub Greek Blend EARTH & SEA SALTS onto chicken (I prefer to grind the salt first with a mortar and pestle)
Coat chicken with extra virgin olive oil with basting brush
Bake at 350 degrees for 1 to 1.5 hours, baste occasionally
CHEESE SCALLOPED POTATOES
6-8 medium-sized Yukon gold potatoes
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 and a 1/4 cup hot milk
3 tablespoons butter
Southwest Blend EARTH & SEA SALTS (the Original Blend would also work nicely)
Rub some butter on bottom and sides of baking dish (I like to use a round baking dish). Peel and slice potatoes very thinly (use a veggie slicer or grater if you have one). Layer half of potatoes in pan, dab some butter on top, sprinkle some salt and cover with half of the cheese. Layer with other half of potatoes, rest of the butter, more salt and rest of cheese. Pour hot milk over the top.
Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 30 minutes.
SPAGHETTI SAUCE
28 oz. can of organic crushed tomatoes
1 lb. of sage or Italian sausage (ground pork also works)
~ 3/4 lb. sliced mushrooms
1 teaspoon honey (can substitute with sugar)
a little water (1/4 - 1/2 cup)
~ 1 teaspoon Original Blend EARTH & SEA SALTS
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon dried herbs (try a mixture of basil, marjoram, oregano and thyme)
In large frying pan, cook sausage well (till it's a little crispy and brown). Without draining, add crushed tomatoes, sliced mushrooms, honey, salt, water and olive oil. Simmer for about an hour, then add herbs. Simmer another 15 minutes. Put on pasta of your choice. Top with parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
