Rocky Mountain Olive Oil

Sampling Vegan Cauliflower Potato Soup

A silky, herb-kissed caress for the soul! This cauliflower-and-potato soup is more than cozy—it’s a warm hug in a bowl. Tender cauliflower and russet potato melt into a smooth puree, carrying aromatic notes of garlic and sweet onion. Our subtle, fragrant Herbes de Provence Infused Olive Oil elevates each spoonful with hints of lavender, rosemary, and thyme that dance alongside earthy, mellow vegetables.

Perfect for chilly evenings or whenever comfort food calls. And if vegetarian isn't your style, cook up some bacon and crumble it on top before serving.

Savory Spice

Sampling Taco Soup

This month, Savory Spice will be sampling our popular Taco Soup! We will have a meat and veggie version. This is a quick Spice & Easy mix to make. The corn, beans and spices are included - we suggest that you add ground beef.

Serve with tortilla chips, sour cream, or guacamole. You can get creative with other add-ins or toppings. Then enjoy your taco soup!

The Cooking Studio

Sampling Crunchy Balanced Bite of Flavors

Stop in for an amuse bouche from The Cooking Studio — a single crisp tortilla chip topped with shredded beef barbacoa, fresh pico de gallo, and a light drizzle of sour cream. This perfectly balanced bite showcases bold, comforting flavors and offers a delicious preview of the hands-on cooking experiences we’re known for.

Simple. Flavorful. Just enough to leave you wanting more.
