📣 BIG NEWS: Solecito Taco Kits now available!!! 🌮🌮🌮
When we first launched our family business, our goal was to create a variety of traditional Mexican foods. We're SO EXCITED to announce that starting this weekend we're offering the following taco options:
• Chorizo & potatoes
• Poblano peppers & corn
• Mushrooms in salsa verde
• Chicken mole
• Mexican black beans
–––––
BUILD YOUR OWN TACO KIT: choose your fillings + choose your salsa (verde or roja) + pair them with our organic, non-GMO corn tortillas = your own customized taco kit!
–––––
WHERE TO GET THEM: order your taco kit this weekend at the West End Farmers Market! Or visit @nourishmarketlynnvalley this Tuesday for a "Taco Tuesday" special!
**Online orders coming soon** Stay tuned for details!

We could all use a little comfort food right now and this enchilada casserole is just that. We’ve offered two versions here: one with a chicken filling and a vegetarian version that is easily made vegan by subbing with plant-based cheese and cream. It’s great for dinner and can be reheated to make tasty leftovers. Buen provecho amigos. Stay home, stay safe!

Amigos, hope you’re staying safe and healthy! 💚
Over the next little while, as you practice safe social distancing and stay home, we are going to be reposting some of our favourite recipes for a little home-cooked meal inspiration.
And if you have a recipe you love to make using @solecitofoods salsas or tortillas, post it and tag us so we can share it with our community!
We’re starting off with the classic HUEVOS RANCHEROS. Because as @eggsoeufs says eggs are perfect for breakfast, dinner, or breakfast for dinner! 🍳 #EggsAnytime

Happy Women’s Day! If you hadn’t heard from us

Happy Women’s Day! If you hadn’t heard from us on social media these last few months it’s because we’ve been a little busy “training” the newest member of our family business 😉
Today, we’re celebrating the mothers, daughters, sisters, wives, friends, girlfriends, colleagues, mentors and all the other strong women in our lives. And this year our family has one more reason to celebrate 💚

Did you know that eating a meal full of different colours (the natural fruit and veggie kind, not multicoloured sprinkles 🧁) is one of the best ways to ensure you’re getting a variety of essential nutrients?

On the blog today: this delicious Healthy Mexican Bowl with Salsa. It’s vegan, gluten-free and full of colour! Containing brown rice, black beans, spinach, tomatoes, yellow pepper, avocado, smoked tofu and salsa (I used my favourite @solecitofoods salsa, but you could use any), it’s the perfect simple meal prep recipe for your weekday lunches.

Simply make a big batch in individual food containers and refrigerate until needed. I’ve found I actually look forward to my packed packed lunches when there’s this much colour in them. 🌈 Happy eating!

Alright amigos, let’s talk packaging 🤓 Now get ready because we have a lot to say on this topic so it's a long one!
☀️
As you may have noticed, we recently changed our salsa packaging to BIGGER containers! We did this for two main reasons:
1) we heard you when you told us our containers were too small for your salsa needs
2) packaging is expensive! It's one of the most expensive aspects of making our product for sale at markets. So by having bigger containers, you get more bang for your buck!
☀️
There is one thing we want to address though: we really wish we had an alternative to plastic packaging. We try to be as environmentally responsible as we can be in all our business (and personal!) practices ♻️ Unfortunately, we have yet to find the ideal, environmentally-friendly packaging option:
• Glass is very costly. Ultimately that would make the price of our products go up and that cost would be transferred to you, the end consumer. We don't want to do that to you -- we know how expensive it is to live in this city already!
• Compostable packaging comes with some complications: we haven't found a supplier who can provide us with an option that would work for our products while also meeting the required health regulations. Also, even though compostable packaging is a step in the right direction, most of those packages still end up in the dump right now since they currently cannot be properly composted by most municipalities.
☀️
So, amigos, as you can tell we're faced with a dilemma when it comes to how we get our products to you. However, we're glad to be part of a community that is stepping up to find solutions! For example, we're excited to announce we recently started working with the lovely folks at @thesoapdispensary! You can visit them on Main St. and bring your own refillable containers to stock up on your favourite Solecito salsas and corn tortillas 🙌
☀️
We know things aren't perfect but we're hoping that by making constant changes in the right direction we'll make the world a cleaner and better place for all 🌎 In the meantime, please remember to reduce, reuse and recycle all that you can!

"What does Solecito mean?" >> This weekend we were

"What does Solecito mean?" >> This weekend we were asked that question a couple times at the farmers market. The direct translation is "little sun" -- but for us it conjures up the idea of sitting on a warm, sunny Mexican beach enjoying delicious food and the beautiful scenery around you ☀️🍹🌴🏖🌊 We hope our products bring a little taste of Mexico to your table and transport you to those relaxing days on the sandy shores by the ocean 😎

Is there anything that beats a good taco with a side of freshly made guac?! 🌮🥑 Not in our books! Happy #TacoTuesday, friends!
