WIN-It-Wednesday: Newman’s Own Salsa (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Nut-Free & More!)
I love my nachos. My friends come over, any time of year, any time of day (well, almost!) and we make up our nachos. We love our smothered with all the good stuff…. melted Cheese (or a good non-dairy substitute), sliced black olives, jalapeno slices, black beans, guacamole and of course… Salsa. And our favorite salsa? Newman’s Own.
An although Newman’s Own Salsa comes in a variety of flavors – including the basic Mild, Medium and Hot, our favorites are the more off-beat salsa varieties, including Tequila Lime, Black Bean & Corn, Roasted Garlic, Mango, Peach and our all-time favorite Pineapple.
And the best part about these salsas is that they are SO GOOD paired with other foods – as a topping, a marinade and as a dip. An example is using the all-time favorite Pineapple Salsa spooned over a nice char-grilled piece of swordfish topped with a sprinkle of chopped cilantro, or the Peach Salsa mixed well with a teaspoon or so of apple cider vinegar and used as a marinade for boneless chicken breasts. And a must try is the Black Bean and Corn Salsa over a Western Omelet… out of this world!
These delicious salsas are also gluten-free, dairy free, egg free, peanut / tree nut free, fish / shell fish free and soy bean free. Plus, you can add MSG and sulfite free to the list as well. Check out all of the allergen info on these Newman’s Own Salsa here.

I like the Newman’s Own salsas so much that at one time we ordered directly from the distributor in upstate NY to get the ones we wanted. The peach is one of my favorites but would enjoy any of them!

I like all of the flavors that I’ve tried and have tried most. They are great on eggs, as well as all the other meats. I just pour a bit on whatever I’m fixing, wrap in foil, put it in the oven and wait for the goodness!

July 2nd, 2013 at 4:17 pm
Hard to pick! I’ve been eating the peach on tortilla chips for years and JUST went gluten-free, so was thrilled to learn I won’t have to give this up. I didn’t know there were so many other flavors though! I love salsa cooked in my breakfast eggs – scrambled, then put in a tortilla wrap (gluten-free, of course) with avocado, fresh baby spinach and cheese. MMMMMM! I’d think the black bean and corn might be good for that. And I’ve always love tequila-lime chicken, so maybe I’ll love that flavor salsa as a quick marinade? Only one way to know – try!
