We love our kale chips and the variety, large and small, of big, leafy greens in each bag.  When making healthy, organic snacks from fresh ingredients like kale…something mysterious happens…you buy a bag and bring it home, and the leaves aren’t quite as big as last time, or there’s more crumbs in the bottom of the bag.  Never fear!  Those small tasty morsels are just as great tasting and nutritious as the large leaf chips and make great additions to so many recipes. 

While we’re constantly striving to get you more, big, beautiful chips in every bag, transportation and handling sometimes isn’t on our side, and you often get varying sizes of chips. 

So, until the Kale Elf stops jumping on bags in the warehouse, we have a few suggestions to get the most out of your bag of kale chips:

• Top a salad to add some flavor and crunch
• Add some flavor to your favorite soup
• Mix with your holiday stuffing
• Top your veggie burger or sandwich
• Mix with breadcrumbs and top fish, chicken or firm tofu and bake
• Add to a quiche
• Mix with beans

Or maybe you like to pour the crumbs straight into your mouth! 

Whatever you like to do, we want to know! 

Post your best kale crumb recipe on our Facebook wall by Wednesday, December 28^th, and we’ll randomly draw 5 winners of a Rhythm goodie bag!

Hello kale lovers!  This summer I had the honor of serving as Rhythm Superfoods' glorified intern.  Much of my time was spent with K Dub, Rhythm's Co-Founder and Creative Director, Keith Wahrer, in the R&D kitchen, where we worked tirelessly to bring you the latest and greatest snacks from Rhythm.

However, last Friday I went with Hayley Reynolds, a.k.a Mama Hay, to a demo at Austin's Central Market North Lamar store.  It was there that I witnessed an amazing sight - kids munching away on our kale chips!  Parents with their little nuggets in tow were pleasantly surprised...it was as if the sky opened up, and the goddess of kale decreed, "Yes, you CAN get your children to eat their vegetables!" Most kids preferred the Kool Ranch flavor since it's the most mild.  The experience reminded me of the importance of checking in with all of you fine people because you're what makes our business possible. 

Finally, as it's my last day at Rhythm before heading back to school, I'd like to make a shout out to the Rhythm team I've come to love.  I will miss you all!  Keep doing what you're doing, and I'll be looking for your chips in Boston!

At Rhythm Superfoods, we believe in making nutrient rich snacks that are also delicious and flavorful, and our latest addition to the Rhythm product line is the Sweet Potato Chip. 

Not only are these chips fat-free and tasty, but the sweet potato is also a superfood, so these chips are packed with nutrients. 

When making these chips, we start with farm fresh organic sweet potatoes and season them with spices and a touch of sea salt.

Then we dehydrate them at a low temperature for hours until they are crispy and delicious.  This gentle process leaves the vital nutrients and enzymes intact. 

The final products are crunchy, amazingly fresh organic sweet potato chips.

We hope you like our Sweet Potato Chips as much as we do!

Happy 4th of July weekend friends of Rhythm!  

This is one of our favorite times of year because it involves friends, good food, pool parties, fireworks, and lots of laughs.   Like most Americans, our friends still celebrate with mounds of food, and we always need a healthy alternative to the bags of chips and dips. This year, we’ll be bringing along some bags of our newest addition to the line, the Rhythm Sweet Potato Chips. They are fat free, crispy and delicious and pair perfectly with all things grilled. Although we might not be able to celebrate with fireworks this year in Austin, we can still enjoy the holiday with good friends, music, and good food.  

Eat smart, and remember the ones you love, the ones who fought for our freedom, and the ones who make good rhythm!

Happy 4^th!

We've become buddies with David Lobel from Diaspora Music Group. His office is next to us and he is the manager of Grupo Fantasma, who just won a GRAMMY AWARD for best new latin rock or alternative band. He asked if we could donate some kale chips for one of their receptions, which we were more than happy to do. Salud, Grupo Fantasma! Austin is proud of you!

Most healthy and growing plants have a strong root structure.  It’s just a fact of agricultural life.  The stronger the roots, the stronger the plant.  I tender this photo for those with a historical curiosity: 8 years ago two Austin guys decided to plant some seeds of a fresh, tasty and nutritionally dense concept... juices, smoothies and raw/vegan snacks for the health and vitality of their Austin, Texas community.  

Those seeds sprouted; roots took hold and 8 years later this location stands as a strong reminder of perseverance, creativity and a community of people that care about what you put into your body.   Daily Juice was a very new concept; part serious nutrition, part music and dancing and a whole lot of hard fun work.  If you ever get the chance to come to Austin to bask in the warmth of the Austin City Limits Music festival, you’ll walk right by this building on Barton Springs Road just shy of the festival’s main entrance; a stones throw from Austin’s soulful epicenter: Barton Springs Pool.  

Drop in, order a smoothie or a fresh juice and stay for a while. You’ll make a new friend... And you’ll then know where the seeds of Rhythm Superfoods were planted.  This is a picture of the strong roots of a young food company that makes incredibly delicious and powerfully nutritional raw superfood snacks that are GOOD for you.  No... Great for you!”
