Start out with a meats and cheeses paired with a Raspberry Jam with Jalapeño by Cellar Door. The homemade jam is perfectly infused with jalapeño but isn't too spicy. To add a little more spice to the board, use Pink Salt Kitchens' Nam Prik Pao - Thai Roasted Chili Jam, which is deliciously balanced umami, smoky, tangy, and sweet. It can be used to accompany a charcuterie board or in stir fries and salad dressings.

If you're looking for a way to make your store-bought protein taste like it came from a restaurant, you're in luck. Season your fillets of fish or beef with Yolélé's Afro-Funk Spice Rub and Dip Mix, which is a handcrafted mix combining dawadawa, onion, and garlic for a savory for a blend that pays homage to its African roots. Opt to mix your marinate  in a light coating of Macadamia Nut Oil from Jindilli. Sourced from the finest macadamia nuts from Australia, this oil boasts a rich, buttery flavor and a high smoke point, making it ideal for both cooking and drizzling. To accompany your protein, roast tender asparagus spears or crispy brussels sprouts seasoned with Truffle Salt from SydPlayEat to spoil your tastebuds. And to accompany your meats, toss a quick, fresh salad in Monteverde's, Essenza Balsamic Vinegar, with flavor notes of black currants, dark berries, and jam. 

Transport your palette with SIMPLi's Tri-Color Quinoa, which is harvested in Peru's agricultural communities. Their tri-color quinoa blends the fluffiness from white, nuttiness from red, and earthiness from black quinoa to make one mouthwatering trifecta and can be mixed in soups, salads, or served alongside your favorite vegetables or protein.

Cozy up by the fire with an immunity boosting warm drink using Beej Farm's Santosh Turmeric, which can be used in tea, coffee, lattes, and more!
