Bagel Spice to spice up your life!

I really love bagels. For as long as I can remember, a bagel has been my very favorite breakfast or lunch. I love them for breakfast covered with cream cheese. I love them for lunch with peanut butter and jelly. Or used like bread for a tuna sandwich. Or turned into pizzas with a little tomato sauce and mozarella cheese. Doesn't matter how you slice it, bagels are an amazing food.

Well I just found something to make my bagels even more amazing than they are already. Bagel spice is a 100% natural seasoning that sprinkles on spreads like butter, cream cheese and hummus to add a little pizazz to your morning bagel. Bagel Spice was inspired by the Everything Bagel and comes in three different varieties: Original Recipe, Zesty Jalapeno and with Sea Salt Flakes.

I received the Sea Salt Flakes variety of Bagel Spice. It contains minced onion, minced garlic, white sesame seeds, black sesame seeds, black caraway seeds, poppy seeds and sea salt. It's 100% natural and contains no sugar, no salt, no preservatives and best of all no MSG. It comes in a 2.6 oz bottle with a shaker top so it's really handy to shake onto my bagel with cream cheese. I love that this is a spice mix that can be enjoyed by people watching their sodium intake.  You can even enjoy Bagel Spice if you're not a big bagel fan because it tastes yummy sprinkled on salads, mashed potatoes, tuna fish, potato salad or even fried eggs.

I tried Bagel Spice Sea Salt Flakes on my bagel with cream cheese and on my salad.  I enjoyed both very much. It gives a bit of a crunch to my bagel which is neat and the flavor is really amazing. I used it with a plain bagel and plain cream cheese but I can see it tasting just as delicious with other flavors of bagels and cream cheese like onion or egg.   I also enjoyed it on top of my salad with light ranch dressing. Again, a nice crunch to the salad which was very enjoyable and nit definitely gave it much more of a zing than a plain salad normally would.  I'm looking forward to trying it a few more ways too.

Bagel Spice can be purchased directly from their website or use their store locator to find a store near you that carries it.  Connect with Bagel Spice on Facebook and Twitter.

Win BKW Seasonings Original Gourmet

BKW Seasonings is a family owned business that originated in the 1960's. Their seasoning was created to produce a unique buffalo-style wing that their family had used for years cooking wings for their friends and customers at football games, parties and gatherings. In 1997, they opened a small take out restaurant called Big Kahuna Wings. Just two weeks after opening, they competed with other wing restaurants and was voted Best Wings in Knoxville at the annual War of the Wings.

They experimented with the seasoning and found it brought out the flavor of a variety of different foods including steaks, hamburgers, pork, fish, and vegetables. The result was BKW Original Gourmet Big Kahuna Blend. The BKW Original Gourmet contains salt, other spices, garlic and monosodium glutamate. I was disappointed to see MSG as an ingredient since it's something I know so many people have issues with. We don't generally have any problems with it here but I do know it's a concern for some.

We used the BKW to make Chicken Tenders which is a recipe we found in their recipe section. I really loved the taste of the Original Gourmet Big Kahuna Blend. It definitely brought out the flavor of the kitchen and the coating was delicious.

BKW's Big Kahuna Seasonings may be purchased online or from your local super market or specialty store. You can find them at all Kroger, Food City, Bi-Lo, Harris Teeter, and Winn Dixie stores, plus several Fresh Markets, and other independent stores. It looks like most of their distribution is in the south east of the country but there are a few stores in other areas as well. Plus you can always purchase it online directly from them. A 3.5 oz bottle of their original seasoning is $4.59 when purchased directly from them. They also have their seasonings available in five pound tubs which is great for those who need to purchase online.

They have different varieties of their seasonings including light, fire, barbecue, butter, pepper, and Cajun. You can connect with BKW on Facebook and Twitter to keep up with what they're doing.
