A few weeks ago while visiting friends on Vancouver Island we took a break from New Moon madness to go to an Epicure party.  Although my friend Danielle was the host of the party it was being held at a more conveniently located house in town.  Having only ever had the salsa from epicure I was excited to try some of the other products, you really can’t turn down a chance to sit around and visit with people while ’sampling’ food.  Although I typically like to create things from scratch I had a fun time trying all the different spice mixtures and ended up getting a variety of mexican inspired products. 

Not many people know about my obsession with all things mexican…

While sampling at the party I had tunnel vision for the queso dip which is probably one of my favourite foods of all time.  I was pleasantly surprised with the queso dip from Epicure.  Nothing sounds better than a big bowl of warm cheese and unlimited chips to dip in them.  In fact on a recent trip to Jamaica I had queso and chips as a ‘snack’ before lunch and dinner every day.  Who really needs that much cheese, I know I do!  I really just can’t imagine a more perfect meal really.

For any of you who haven’t had the epicure salsa you are definitely missing out.  It has the flavour that I always wish my homemade salsa had.  I thank/blame Danielle for introducing me to the salsa because just like with my queso I want a huge bowl to scarf down.  I find that I am constantly looking for reasons to have salsa on things.

I am looking forward to my next trip to the island so I can pick up my goodies and start making all things mexican.
