We are always looking for new healthy ways to liven up meals for the family. Once I read the mission statement of the founder and saw the recipe suggestions, I just had to try it!
“Chakalaka is about coming together through shared meals and stories. We make it possible for people to connect and fully experience the vibrant flavors of life in an easy to prepare, healthy and fun meal.”
We first had the mild with salmon, rice & beet salad. It was totally a hit! There are endless possibilities in the recipe suggestions so you can keep it simple or go crazy! Next we tried the medium spice with steak tips, wild rice & chicken breast. It was a different experience to the salmon with the mild mix. I lean vegetarian. So I like that it can be vegan if you prefer. It added plenty of oomph and at only 150 calories a serving, but so satisfying, it’s a great choice!
The history of the origins in South Africa is interesting, first created by miners in the 1950’s. The versatility of this dish makes it a great staple to keep in hand in your pantry! Thank you Chakalaka for trusting me to try out your new product. It’s a winner!
