March to Your Own BEET with Cold-Pressed Juice – Amazing Pressed Juice Cooking Hacks from Celebrity Chef George Duran
As the weather turns cold, nothing ‘beets’ a nutritious grab-and-go treat to take on your way out the door. To keep mornings simple, the choice can only be Beetology™, perfect to throw in your lunchbox, backpack, or purse, or to drink on the go. Healthful and versatile, these cold-pressed juices are guaranteed to quench your thirst and satisfy your sweet tooth without any added sugar, while giving you the fruit and vegetables your body loves and craves!
“Cold-pressed juices are a great way to get your kids the fruits and veggies they need in a tasty and easy way,” says Laura Morris, Associate Director of Marketing at Beetology. “Kids love the flavors so much, they don’t even notice that they’re fueling their bodies with great nutrients.”
In recent years, people have become increasingly motivated to prioritize their health and wellbeing. With this improved health consciousness, the demand for nutritious, natural beverages free of additives has risen as well, which is where cold-pressed juices come in[1]. Due to the hydraulic press extraction process, cold-pressed juicing utilizes significantly less heat than traditional juicing, resulting in greater retention of the ingredients’ vitamins and nutrients2. Unfortunately, this process can equate to price points that can be inaccessible for some, with cold-pressed juice bar prices sometimes ranging up to $20 a bottle. But at an MSR of just $3.99 per 8.45 oz bottle, Beetology makes nutritious, healthful juices with sustainably sourced ingredients accessible to more people than ever, all year long.
Not only are Beetology juices hydrating and great for your body, but as celebrity chef George Duran of TLC and Food Network proves, they’re versatile as well! Some of George’s favorite food hacks using Beetology are as follows:
- Sweeten your mulled wine with Beetology to add some nutritional benefits.
- Turn any pancake mix into red velvet pancakes by using Beetology in place of other liquids.
- Add a burst of color to your candied yams recipe by cooking the yams in Beetology.
“What I really love about Beetology juices is that they’re as great to drink out of the bottle as they are to use in recipes,” says George Duran. “I drink them while I’m cooking and they help to keep me hydrated and energized.”
Beetology comes in five beet-powered blends, each with its own tasty twist: Beet + Lemon + Ginger, Beet +Veggie, Beet + Berry, Beet + Cherry, and Beet + Tropical Fruit. Meanwhile, Each blend offers a distinctively refreshing flavor so essential, you’ll have to stock up on them all. Beetology juices are vegan, non-GMO, certified fair trade and USDA organic, OU kosher, and free of concentrate, added sugar, artificial ingredients, soy, dairy, and gluten.

SNACK BARS TAKE THE TAHINI CRAZE TO HEALTHY, DELICIOUS NEW HEIGHTS
The Mighty Sesame Company introduces TahiniBAR,
the Energy Bar Made From Sesame Seeds
Available in Three Exciting Varieties: Cocoa Nibs, Pistachio, and Vanilla
Sesame seeds are truly one of the most ancient foods on earth. In fact, sesame plants are the oldest known plant species to be grown primarily for their seeds (pods) and oils rather than for their leaves, fruit or vegetables.
TahiniBAR is leading the pack in many of today’s hottest food trends.
- Demand for authentic Mediterranean food, particularly seed-based spreads like hummus and tahini, is on the rise in the United States, with even more growth in the forecast.
- The market for healthy portable snacks has seen dynamic growth; bars are more widely available and consumed on a more casual basis than ever before.
- The gluten-free movement continues to gain traction as shoppers become more mindful of diets that support health and wellness. In fact, more than 30% of Generation Z and Millennials say they are willing to pay a premium for gluten-free products.
- Finally, consumers are expecting intriguing new textures and flavors, and they want to indulge in ingredients like fruits, nuts, and chocolate.
Health Benefits – Sesame seeds are an excellent source of copper, manganese, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, molybdenum, and selenium. These translate into a variety of health benefits including cholesterol-lowering phytosterols, heart health, improved blood pressure, hormone balance, as well as cancer fighting and fat burning properties. Sesame also helps boost nutrient absorption and energy levels, too.
TahiniBAR satisfies all of these demands in a novel new format. Like tahini and its decadent dessert cousin, halvah, the energy bars are made from all-natural roasted sesame seeds. Sesame seeds help boost energy levels and are a good source of vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber, Calcium, Iron, Zinc and potassium.
A twist on classic Tahini. This Tahini bar with Cocoa Nibs excites your taste buds with the naturally chocolatey taste of cocoa nibs balanced with the delicate taste of finely ground sesame seeds. Absolutely perfect together!
Naturally indulgent Tahini bar with Pistachios is a fan favorite! You’ll love the melt in your mouth sweetness of finely ground sesame seeds perfectly topped with chopped pistachios. These are just too good to resist.
This Vanilla Tahini bar packs a naturally delicious vanilla flavor which partners perfectly with the delicate flavor of ground sesame seeds. This is true bliss!
This snack size bar is a perfect anytime snack. Great for on the go or a mid-day pick me up. A heavenly snack you don’t have to feel bad about, its only 100 calories! This snack bar offers simple indulgence you’ll crave without the ingredients that you’re trying to avoid! The natural sweetness of Tahini Bars pairs perfectly with the robust flavor of coffee.
This sweet and flakey bar is sure to please your taste buds. No Gluten, No Dairy, Nothing Artificial, Plant-Based and Vegan.

SIX WAYS TO MAKE YOUR PARTY
A HEALTHY HIT WITH MIGHTY SESAME

That got the people at The Mighty Sesame Company thinking. With the Super Bowl right around the corner, squeezable tahini is an MVP when it comes to making any party easier, tastier, and healthier. After all, unlike other brands, Mighty Sesame doesn’t separate, so it’s always perfectly blended and ready to use. No mixing, no stirring, no problem!
American foodies know there’s a tahini revolution afoot. The creamy, decadent condiment usually takes center stage in Middle Eastern dishes like hummus and falafel. But in fact, it’s perfectly at home in a variety of sweet and savory dishes.
We recently spoke to Vicky Cohen and Ruth Fox, authors of the popular cookbook Tahini and Turmeric, and asked why tahini is such a great ingredient to work with? They told us, “One of the things we love the most about tahini, besides its incredibly addicting nutty flavor, is its versatility. It can be used in sweet and savory applications. Besides using it to make hummus, tahini is great in salad dressings, as a sauce for sandwiches or tacos, or simply spread over toast with your favorite jam or date syrup!
Tahini also adds fabulous flavor to cookies, cakes, shakes, bars, mousses, and even granola. The possibilities are endless!” (Cohen and Fox are the authors of Tahini & Turmeric, 101Middle Eastern Classics Made Irresistibly Vegan and Founders of the Blog Mayihavethatrecipe.com).
And that’s where Mighty Sesame comes into play at your Super Bowl party. This year, kick off the fun with tahini dips like Sweet ‘n Sour Tahini sauce served with crunchy cauliflower , then score with halftime soups and salads such as Cucumber salad with Miso-Tahini dressing, Marinated entrees like Fish Tacos with Tahini and Siracha, or Chicken Breast Baguette Hero sandwich drizzled with Tahini are sure to be tahini touchdowns. Extra points, of course, for tahini-based desserts like Tahini-walnut brownies or Tahini cookies.
Best of all, tahini is a superfood. Made from one ingredient, 100% roasted sesame seeds, Mighty Sesame Tahini is loaded with plant-based protein, calcium and other vitamins and minerals. All varieties (Original fine and Whole seed) are, vegan, gluten- and dairy-free, kosher, and halal.
Find squeezable tahini and other Mighty Sesame products at Walmart, Whole Foods, Wegmans, and other retail outlets. They are distributed by Kayco, the top purveyor of kosher foods in America.
Sure to be a Super Bowl crowd-pleaser, serve up this Chicken breast Tahini Drizzled Hero to serve four or forty. Healthy and delicious! Chicken Breast Baguette Hero sandwich drizzled with Tahini
