Welcome to your new obsession: dry salsa. If you haven’t heard—yes—this condiment is the next big thing. Trust us when we say that your love for salsa is about to get even more real.
Unlike most packaged salsas, this version doesn’t contain any yucky preservatives—it’s also free of soy and gluten.
This spicy concoction is a mix of dried chilies, raw seeds and avocado oil. Enjoy it the old-fashioned way with tortilla chips or use it to create new foodies favorites! We’re loving it on avocado toast, tacos and sprinkled on top of tofu scramble.
