Wild Garden brings us “the taste of the Mediterranean.” You may have tried Wild Garden’s hummus or snack kits. Wild Garden recently expanded their brand to include marinades and heat and serve side dishes. Each of the products is designed by chefs using all natural ingredients. These dishes are quick, easy and delicious. They’re also healthy with simple ingredients that you can recognize. They use 13 different spices and oils to create authentic Mediterranean flavors.
The marinades help you to create full, flavorful meals in no time. Just add protein and you are (just about) ready to go. The marinades take only ten minutes to set and create super flavorful dishes. There are three flavors: Persian, Shawarma and Turkish. They can be used with beef, chicken, lamb, seafood or tofu. Aside from the basic grilling and shish kebabs, Wild Garden offers a bunch of great recipes on their website.
The heat and serve pilafs can be made in the microwave or skillet in 90 seconds. Pilafs are grains with “zesty” sauces, herbs, spices and vegetables. They come in three well seasoned varieties: Bulgur, Couscous and Rice and Lentils.
Wild Garden sent me a Tasting Kit with all of the flavors to try. It also included recipes and a cute apron. Read on because one lucky reader will win a Tasting Kit from Wild Garden!
If you come around here much, you know I’m not a patient cook and I rarely cook in summer. I’m happy to report that I made chicken tenders with Persian marinade and the Bulgur side dish. I prepped, cooked and cleaned everything in less than 20 minutes! It was really delicious. The marinade contains sunflower oil, so I didn’t need to add any oil. I grilled it up in a pan. I’d love to try this marinade with chicken on a grill. The marinade pack is for 3 lbs of chicken. I made 1 lb with a small amount of marinade. I have enough chicken and pilaf left over for another meal or two.
I tried the Rice and Lentils with some pre-cooked chicken and sun gold tomatoes. This quick lunch took less than 3 minutes to prepare! The sides steam right in the bag in the microwave. These are perfect for busy days and nights.
