{top it with}: tajin seasoning

Tajin-tomato

Tajin seasoning is a powdered concoction made of ground chili peppers, salt, and dehydrated lime juice. I discovered this Mexican staple during a recent farmer's market trip where it was sprinkled on fresh sliced heirloom tomatoes...like salt-sprinkled tomatoes bumped up a notch with a bit of lemon and peppery kick! We like to sprinkle this zesty seasoning on top of popcorn, cucumber stalks, tomato slices, watermelon, and so much more. Yum!

That is really cool, i have never heard of Tajin but I love eating slices of tomato with salt and can only think they will be better with this seasoning!

My husband and I discovered Tajin at the Hillcrest Farmer's Market last summer. It's so delicious. Thanks for reminding us about it! I'm definitely going to by another bottle for this seasons tomatoes and avocado.

My husband is from Mexico and his favorite quick snack: popcorn sprinkled with lime juice and Tajín. To ensure you get a fresh bottle, be sure to check the date printed on the cap!
