The Better Chip Chipotle and Beet Chips

If you didn’t know that today is National Tortilla Chip Day,  you just found out.  

The BetterChip Company known for its motto Better Chip from the Inside Out  honors the day with the launch of two distinctive flavors: the Chipotle and the Beet chip. The Better Chip Beet chips and the Better Chip Chipotle chips are available nationwide in more than 10,000 grocery stores.

The Chipotle chips are described as rich, with a smoky flavor and a warm heat. Red-ripened jalapeno peppers are smoked over wood chips to create the chipotle pepper, then are crushed and cooked into whole grain corn masa. Eat them with bean dip, guacamole and with spreadable cheese and slice of salami.

The Beet chips are simple, bold and bright and are made with fresh beets straight from the field that are cleaned, chopped and cooked into every batch. Pair nicely with hummus, goat cheese and Greek yogurt dip.

Both products are gluten free, cholesterol free and non-GMO verified and suitable for vegans. Each serving has on average 150 calories.

For a guilt-free evening, pour your favorite wine and grab a bowl of Beet and Chipotle chips, a few slices of cheese and you are all set. Cheers!

Café Presse - Seattle Discoveries

Hot chocolate, cream and the creamy cup of yogurt at the back

It wouldn't be a better place to spend a rainy and windy afternoon. The Café Presse knows to host hungry for good coffee or chocolat chaud. The cappuccino may not be the most impressive one but the chocolat chaud comes in two separate cups: one with the hot chocolate, the other has the cream. Blend them together or just take a bite of the cream, then dive it into the chocolate cup. Either way it's pure indulgence.
