Pistachio Chewy Bite Salad Recipe
How Setton Farms Began: It all started in 1959 with a bakery and a dream. The Setton brothers hoped that they could win over the taste buds of Brooklyn’s residents with delicious sponge cake and jelly donuts. Years later that dream grew into a passion to share gourmet food and specialty items. In 1967 they opened their first grocery store. During that time, the Setton brothers began selling packaged nuts and seeds to major retailers in the New York metropolitan area. In 1981 they expanded their operation by entering the wholesale business selling nuts, dried fruits, seeds, trail mixes and other specialty items.
Today Setton Pistachio of Terra Bella, Inc. is one of America’s largest pistachio grower and processors. The family’s passion for farming California pistachios today encompasses over 10,000 acres farmed directly and in partnership with others. As a vertically integrated pistachio company, Setton is able to focus on its tradition of excellence and pays attention to every step of the process, ensuring the top quality and value of their family’s passion.

My Thoughts
Looking for a healthy, delicious, easy snack for yourself or your family? Well look no further than with Setton Farms Pistachio Berry Blend. This is the perfect snack to have with you any time of day: on the way to work in the morning, sprinkled on your salad at lunch, midnight snack, etc. You really can’t go wrong…my bag is already gone, and I just opened it up Monday. This snack includes three of my favorite nuts, pistachios, cashews & almonds (add some walnuts and this girl will buy in bulk) and white chocolate chips, so it’s the perfect sweet & salty snack. I also really like that is comes in a resealable bag to keep from the mix getting stale. With National Salad Month right around the corner, Setton Farms products are the perfect choice to spruce up your favorite salad.
