Hi.

Welcome to my blog.

If I’m cooking, it’s a celebration!  I am capable of making delicious meals (I swear!), but I just don’t enjoy the process.  One thing that deters me from the whole cooking scene is figuring out what spices to use and making something healthy.  Hand me the right spices and let me rock your taste buds.

OK, so I’m not a chef just yet, but Chef Curl Ardee covered all my bases!  My go-to dish is salmon.  It’s healthy, easy to fully cook without overcooking, and works great in the oven.  I grabbed my Chef Curl Ardee Lemon & Herb Seasoning and went to town.

The seasoning is so perfect.  It’s low in sodium, which is very important to me, and is a mixture of citrus, pepper, and fresh herb.  I always put way too much pepper if I’m seasoning something, but this was a balanced amount. This seasoning is also great for pizza!  You know once my pre-holiday diet is over, I’m going to indulge, right?

The citrus taste was very subtle but I could tell it’s there.  I loved that it didn’t overpower my fish. I added some lemon slices since I love a good lemon taste, along with dill and capers.  Honestly, it didn’t even need all of that. Next time, I’m going to skip the dill and capers because the Chef Curl Ardee seasoning had the right amount of flavor.

You guys, my salmon came out perfect. The hubs isn’t a big fan of salmon, and he was loving this! We had to fight for the 3rd piece, but sometimes you have to compromise and split things down the middle.

Chef Curl Ardee isn’t just saving cooking-challenged people in the world, they’re doing something much bigger.  Rachel created Chef Curl Ardee because she wanted a healthy alternative to salts and something to substitute onions, because she was allergic.  Rachel created a line of healthy seasoning that are either low in sodium or have no salt at all. After all of this, she wanted to do more. Rachel believes the very best we have to give should be shared with those less fortunate than ourselves.  Her mission: Be and Give Good Energy.

Chef Curl Ardee is an advocate for No Kid Hungry, an organization dedicated to ending childhood hunger.  A portion of every Chef Curl Ardee purchase is donated to No Kid Hungry.  Every single purchase goes toward improving a child’s life with the right nutrition.  The donations help provide meals to children in need.

Chef Curl Ardee is my new bestie.  The website even has recipes that use the brand’s seasonings.  I think my next meal will be the Honeymoon(shine) Wings, but I’ll need the Mild Seasoning.  They look amazing! Once I perfect this whole choosing what’s for dinner thing, I definitely want to try the Cajun Seasoning and make the Cajun Rubbed and Roasted Chicken.  My mouth is watering as I type.
