Our sauces are extremely versatile, and allow consumers to create meals based on the ingredients they have on hand, the time they have to prepare a meal, and the type of meal they’re craving. Our products also contain NO oil (extremely rare for cooking sauces), are low in sodium, have no added sugar (but packed with flavor), and are actually nutritious, instead of detracting from nutrition as most sauces do.

Why we're different

There are only 3-4 regional global cuisines represented on most grocery store shelves - but we know the country is much more beautifully diverse, AND the flavor desires we ALL are craving are also much more diverse than that! Data shows that 1.65 million people cook at home 3-5x per week. When polled they said they need more of the following attributes: Easy solutions to getting dinner on the table, They desire more global flavors, AND they want healthier options. So Mesa de Vida is here to give consumers more of what they want and what they can’t currently find in the marketplace! To use, simply combine 1 lb of protein, 2 cups of veggies, and 1 bottle of starter sauce. Then slow cook, simmer, or braise up incredible soups, stews, saucy skillet meals and more! Think: The convenience of spaghetti sauce, Indian cooking sauces, and those gloppy condensed soups - sprinkle in the versatility and complexity of Thai curry pastes. We’ve expanded on that inspiration to include more of the flavors we crave, provide easy solutions for our busy lifestyles, and the way we cook and eat today. You don’t need any special skills, equipment, or have to keep a cabinet full of spices on hand, or chop a basket full of vegetables just to make one recipe.
