With all the taste-testing, recommendations and recipes shared, it’s easy to find your new favorite products. Although you can find recipes on the side of our product packaging, many of our employees use our products so often that they discover a unique way to use them in everyday dishes. Today we’ll be giving you an inside look as we’ve asked our employees to submit their favorite products and recipes that they come back to time after time. Specifically we asked them. what is your tried-and-true “secret ingredient”?
Appetizers & Sides
Like any good meal, we’re starting off strong with our favorite appetizers and sides.

Corey’s Major Grey Chutney Baked Brie
- Use a brie (round or slice)
- Sliver off the papery top
- Layer on Stonewall Kitchen Major Grey’s Chutney
- Top with crispy, cooked bacon
- Cook for about 25 minutes at 350 (Keep an eye on it!)
- Serve with crackers

Alice’s Lemon & Avocado Vinaigrette Couscous Salad
- A box of couscous
- ½ cup of the Lemon & Avocado Oil Vinaigrette
- ½ cup craisins
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- Zest and juice of one lemon
- A few sprigs of fresh mint chopped
- 1 shallot chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Tip from Alice: “I cook the couscous according to the box directions, allow it to cool, and then I combine everything in a bowl and toss it all together. You can serve it right away or I find it’s usually better if I cover it in the fridge for a few hours!”
Entrees
Moving on to our main course we’re serving up savory ramen, garlicky shrimp, and comforting chicken divan.

Kyle’s Scallion Aioli Ramen
Start boiling your favorite ramen noodles. In the serving bowl, add the flavoring packet, a raw egg, as many crushed garlic cloves as you’d like and add tablespoons of Stonewall Kitchen Scallion Aioli to your taste. Mix ingredients all together to combine. With hot, starchy water from the cooked noodles, pour a little in the bowl and whisk. Repeat to cook the egg without curdling and repeat until you have a nice broth. Add noodles, folding it over themselves. Top with extra sliced scallions, a drizzle of Napa Valley Naturals Toasted Sesame Oil and a spoonful of your favorite chili crisp. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks

Bill’s Muffuletta Salad Scrambled Eggs

“Add 1 heaping Tablespoon (or more) of Tillen Farms Muffuletta Olive Salad to your scrambled egg mix. This will add a bit of zest to your scrambled eggs!”
Ian’s Guide to Upgraded Tuna Salad and Grilled Cheese

“I have a few tips to elevate some of your favorite everyday sandwiches:
- Stir a good amount (~¼ cup but you can go as heavy as you like) Tillen Farms Muffuletta Olive Salad into tuna salad in place of mayo. It's beautiful on toasted rye bread with a nice sharp cheese.
- Spread Stonewall Kitchen Ghost Pepper Aioli onto bread (in place of butter) to make a grilled cheese with a kick.”
Natalie’s Go-To Ingredient: Roasted Garlic Onion Jam

“One of my favorite products is the Stonewall Kitchen Roasted Garlic Onion Jam, I use it for a variety of things! I put two tablespoons in my mashed potatoes to make the perfect garlic mashed potatoes, or even when sautéing green beans. For a party dish, slather it over brie and bake at 300 degrees for five minutes, served with our Simple White Crackers! It’s the most versatile product with both a sweet and savory flavor profile – love it!”
Darren’s Flavorful Fried Chicken

“One of my favorites is to make fried chicken but substitute the egg wash with Buffalo Aioli. It makes the breading stick great, and the aioli flavor is powerful enough to shine. Serve the buffalo chicken with our Bacon Ranch Dressing.
