Main Dishes

Cocoa Spiced Ribs

Cocoa adds a robust layer of flavor to these easy to prepare ribs. They are so good, you’ll want to grill them up at every tailgating party!Make Cocoa Spiced Ribs >

Pumpkin Black Bean Chili

Rodelle Cocoa Powder is the secret ingredient that gives this vegetarian chili richness and depth. It won’t make your chili taste like chocolate, but it adds that extra flavor you never knew you were missing in your chili! We even have a helpful video to show you every step!
