Gluten Free and Bitchin’
03.12.13
We just fell in love with Bitchin’ Sauce after trying it at Little Italy’s Farmer’s Market in San Diego. We want to share the good news of this tasty savory sauce that’s also vegan, gluten-free, and almond-based, and reminds of us hummus. It’s the all around great condiment that can be used as a spread, dip, or to make any dish taste even better.
Spread it on sandwiches, dip veggies or chips in it, or add Bitchin’ Sauce to tacos, pasta, pizza or rice and beans to make them that much better. Bitchin’ Sauce is the creation of bro and sis Ryan Smith and Starr Edward who are spreading their Bitchin’ sauce all over San Diego County at farmer’s markets and you can pick up a container of Bitchin’ Sauces in Original, Pesto or our favorite Spicy Chipotle at a local Whole Foods (Laguna Niguel, Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, Tustin and Huntington Beach); or Mother's Market & Kitchen (Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Irvine, Laguna Woods, Santa Ana, Anaheim Hills and Brea).
Bitchin” Sauce is also available online. Six sauces cost $25.
