Available in five worldly flavors, Mesa de Vida’s Non-GMO and Whole30 starter sauces are heart-healthy and low sodium.
OCEANSIDE, CA — Mesa de Vida’s globally inspired starter sauces help you create fast, amazing, restaurant-quality meals at home while maintaining its commitment to its no added sugar, low-sodium, and heart-healthy ingredients. Mesa de Vida Founder Chef Kirsten Helle Sandoval (previously featured on Guy’s Grocery Games, Woman’s Day, and Women’s World) developed her starter sauces to be elevated, healthful, convenient, inclusive, and innovative mealtime solutions that connect and inspire.
February marks the start of American Heart Month, when The Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention shines a light on hypertension, a leading risk factor for heart disease and stroke. Taking inspiration from both her previous job as a personal chef to professional athletes and her and her family’s health struggles (Kirsten herself is a living kidney donor), Mesa de Vida is committed to its mission of accessible, flavorful, and heart-healthy meals.
“My goal with Messa de Vida is to take inspiration from the flavors of the world and make delicious dishes accessible,” says Sandoval. “From the kick of a spicy Latin cayenne pepper to the rich tones of North African spices, Mesa de Vida starter sauces allow you to quickly sauté, simmer, or oven-braise your meat or vegetables for a fast and healthy dinner.”
Mesa de Vida’s first product line of starter sauces includes five flavors, Moroccan, Creole, Latin, Mediterranean, and Caribbean. As a mom to two children with a rare genetic cancer-causing disease, Chef Kirsten is aware of the health impacts and potential risks of plastics in our foods, especially in acidic and hot-filled products sitting in plastic for periods of time, not to mention the environmental impacts from plastics leaching into our oceans and streams. For both of these reasons, Mesa de Vida is committed to using only recyclable glass jars.
Mesa de Vida is available for purchase online at www.mesadevida.com, Amazon.com, and is soon to be in stores nationwide. Each jar retails for an MSRP of $8.99. For full ingredients and recipe ideas, please visit www.mesadevida.com.
