Tryazon & Arbo's Cheese Dip

Hey Peeps

Swinging by for a quick post today about a new product we got to test out around here.

It's Arbo's Cheese Dips and we were lucky enough to test out 3 flavors and this dip.

Arbo's Cheese Dip was a secret family recipe and Andrew the Commander in Cheese (also founder & CEO) decided this recipe was too good to keep amongst his family and friends, so Arbo's Dip was formed.  It is a Veteran-owned company and that alone is worth you testing it out yourself!

Tryazon sent me all these lovely dips so I could have a Super Bowl party!

That's a LOT of cheese dippin'!

However, if you follow any of my social media then you know I've been down in good ole' Louisiana doing the Mardi Gras thing this month.    Not to fear!!  I have some amazing friends who were going to throw a little King Cake tasting shindig for my birthday on the 4th.    Since cheese goes with everything it's all good!

We sampled all the dips and our clear favorite was the Queso Blanco, we all thought it tasted like a Mexican restaurant dip.  YUMMMO, right??!!!

Unfortunately, since we did the party early and I was out of town the really fun box of extra goodies came after our party.  I really wish I could have shared these with our friends!


I can tell you that I'm just dying to try out that Crack Chicken Pasta recipe.  Maybe if we're lucky I'll get around to posting that on this ole' blog.  


Here we all are after we are stuffed with cheese dip and king cake!

I was the birthday girl in Lavender and I assure you king cake and cheese dip does go together!

Thanks so much to Tryazon and Arbo's dip for giving me the opportunity to sample the dips and learn about your awesome company!
 

Peace, Love & CHEESE

Tryazon & Casa M Spice Co.

Happy post-Labor Day Peeps!!

I have another great party post today compliments of Tryazon and a Texas company Casa M Spice Co.

We hosted several friends on Labor Day afternoon for a smorgasbord of delicious dishes prepared with the party box contents.

I made a video of the unboxing but totally forgot to just get a photo so here are a few screenshots of what items were sent.  It was an impressive box! 


Our box had 6 Casa M Spice coozies and 8 spice blend mixes along with silicone lids for each of the metal containers.  

Let's get to the fun things we had to eat AND there was a lot!!   Hey, a party isn't a party unless you have too much food! Most of the party day recipes came from the Casa M Spice website so I will include a link where I can, otherwise, it's just used as you would any other seasoning. 



Pre-party we tried out these sweet potato fries with the girls were in town.
Just cut up the sweet potatoes, seasoned them with the Cattle Drive & Chain Reaction seasonings, and popped them in the air fryer until crispy.   They were really good! 


One other night prior to the party we tested out the Cattle Drive seasoning again on some steak on the grill.



I topped the steak with a chili lime butter while it was resting then sliced it up and served it over a nice Southwestern Salad.  Nothing fancy but an easy and delicious dinner. 

Now it's Party Time!!



These were probably the easy favorites of the party and the biggest surprise of all.  This will be something that I will make often.  Jerked Roasted Mixed Nuts


Hubster grilled these on the grill but they were quite good!


These were gone!  I'm not a Bratwurst fan but everyone else was.  We served these up with some stone ground mustard for dipping.  The Whole Hog and Chain Reaction seasonings were used to make these fun appetizers.   Beer Bratwurst Bacon Bites


A Labor Day staple got seasoned up with some Kickstart seasoning. 

Notice the rubber cap on the seasoning can?  Those were included in my box and I think that is such an amazing addition to this line of spices.  How many times do you knock a shaker jar over in the pantry and have to clean up some kind of small seasonings?  The seasoning cans are metal and can be reused and then you have this nice little silicone cap to pop over the top to make sure you don't make a mess. 



Little Prime Rib sliders were seasoned up with Cattle Drive and Kickstart.   I went too light with the seasonings on this one, next time I'll go heavier. 


Next up was some vegetables.  These were supposed to be skewered and grilled but we had lots going on the grill so I roasted them in the oven.  Roasted vegetables

This was probably the most disappointing of the spices.  Our veggies had virtually no flavor, maybe I didn't use enough.  I'll try the seasoning again but use more and maybe on some fish next time. 

Also, this was the only seasoning in a glass jar and once again, the packaging is on point with this company!




Lastly, we have the second favorite of the day using the Pecking Order blend.  Pulled Chicken
We had buns out and this was so easy and so delicious.  I will tell you this will be made many times over in this house.   So many different ways you could serve this! 

Here's the information from the website on the Pecking Order blend:
  • Gluten Free
  • Keto-Friendly
  • MSG Free
  • Very Low Sodium
  • No Fillers
  • Dairy and Nut Free
  • Animal Product Free
  • Made in Texas

Ingredients:  spices, sugar, turmeric, salt, garlic, paprika, capsicums, onion, & silicon dioxide (anti-caking agent)

You can feel good about using these spices generously!


We had a fabulous time relaxing and laughing with our friends and can't thank Tryazon and Casa M. Spice Co. enough for the generous package


To close things out, we have the obligatory group photo (minus me, someone has to corral this group!) 




Peace, Love & Spice!!
