As a busy mom, I am always on the lookout for easy meals. Typically this means we are stuck with quick pasta dishes and chicken, but I’ve recently discovered a new line that lets me add a little bit of Mediterranean flavor into our menu rotation. Wild Garden’s ‘Taste of the Mediterranean’ line features three all natural ten-minute Marinades and three 90-second heat and serve Pilafs.
The Marinades come in three flavors- Shawarma, Turkish and Persian. I love that all of the spices are mixed together and come in a convenient pouch. Just dump, mix with meat and let sit for 10 minutes and then the meat is ready for the grill, skillet or oven. The meat can then be enjoyed as kebabs, put in pita bread as wrap ingredients or used to top your favorite rice.
The Wild Garden website has some recipes and we loosely followed one for wraps. We used the Shawarma marinade to flavor steak and then put them on flatbread with tomatoes, onions and feta cheese. I topped mine with Tzatziki sauce and Sinisa enjoyed his wraps with hummus. We are looking forward to trying the Turkish marinade to make kebabs, one of Sinisa’s favorite foods.
The pilafs are the perfect dinner starter or side for an entree. They come in three varieties- Rice & Lentil, Bulgur and Couscous. These products are sure to become a family pantry favorite because they are so easy to heat in their pouches. I really loved the rice and lentil one. Not only was the flavor great but I like that it has caramelized onions mixed in.
Do you make Mediterranean dishes at home? Which is your favorite?
I love trying new dishes, and it would be great to make Mediterranean dishes at home. I love easy meals!
Those all look delicious and you are now making me hungry. It’s our busy time of year right now so am always looking for new easy meal ideas, will add these to my shopping list.
I have not seen these products before!!! I need to keep an eye out for these at my store.
What a great and easy way to eat mediterranean at home, love it. I will give it a try, always up for trying new things especially when I can do so at home!
My wife loves Shawarma and can’t find a good restaurant locally. Going to have to surprise her with this!
