Posted on April 24, 2019 by VSheree

Actress, producer, philanthropist, NY Times bestselling cookbook author, and Texas-native, Eva Longoria, continued her partnership with FoodStory Brands, a family-owned Arizona-based company, to bring her recipes to life. Longoria collaborated with FoodStory Brands’ Fresh Cravings to create an authentic, fresh-tasting, Texas-inspired salsa, Eva’s Kitchen Cantina StyleSalsa, which launched in late March exclusively in H-E-B’s produce department.

Eva’s Kitchen Cantina Style Salsa packs a rich and smoky bite that’s derived from chipotle, jalapeno, cayenne, and Anaheim peppers, fresh vegetables and vine-ripened tomatoes that are specially charred and roasted to bring out their most robust taste.
