Did you know that Mesquite meal can be used as either flour or a spice. As flour, it is generally used in combination with other flours using about 30 per cent mesquite. As a spice, sprinkle generously then grill, fry, broil or add it to almost anything for a great mesquite flavor.

In addition to its great taste, the major benefits of mesquite meal include high dietary fiber content, high protein and a high lysine content. It's also a good source of manganese, potassium and zinc.

For anyone who uses a meal replacement drink and finds they are hungry long before lunch time will love mesquite meal. Just add a tablespoon of mesquite meal to your drink. It will help you stave off hunger for about 4 to 6 hours.

Mesquite Pods, Chiltepin Peppers, and Honey Mesquite Soap
also available.

International Orders Welcome! Recipes Included!

Baked Apple Chicken

Ingredients

1/4 tsp Cinnamon
2 cups Apple Juice
2 Tbsp Sweet Peruvian Mesquite Meal
1/2 teaspoon Salt
4 to 5 lbs Chicken, cut into sections
2 each Green Apples, Granny Smith cut into round slices
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp White Pepper
1/4 cup Honey

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 Degrees F

Combine apple juice, cinnamon and honey together and mix well. Place chicken into marinade and leave for about an hour turning the pieces occasionally.

Next, core and cut Granny Smith apples into rings about 1/2" thick. You should get 6 to 7 slices per apple depending on the size.

Once the chicken is removed set marinade aside and place chicken in a lightly oiled, covered pan and spread apple slices over chicken. Lightly sprinkle salt, pepper and mesquite meal onto both sides of the chicken. .

Place chicken into the preheated oven for about 1 hour.

About 15 minutes before chicken is to be removed from the oven pour the marinade into sauce pan and on a medium heat reduce sauce to about 1/2 its original volume. This will be used as a sauce for the chicken.
