To give you an idea of the versitility of this blend, I used mine with ground beef to make island burgers topped with pineapple salsa. Later this week, I'm planning to use it again to add a little kick to baked sweet potato fries. My only suggestion would be for folks like me, who normally don't cook with much salt, to reduce the amount by a teaspoon. Ellie, another winner here. Thanks.

I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
