Mixed Beet Spring Salad and Beet Orange Sunrise




Hi Friends! Monique and I started BitenBubbly because we both loved to host with food and cocktails. When we were planning our blog we knew that we wanted to use the same ingredients to make both our bites and our bubbly. Monique was driven by how cost effective this could be (financially conservative Mo) and I was excited about how we would be eliminating food waste (socially liberal Sarah). Well, with this backstory in mind, Monique and I have exciting news to share!! This entire month we have partnered with Pacific Coast Harvest a Washington company that delivers local, nutritionally dense produce and farm goods from ethically operated farms; just like a CSA but for Puget Sound Farmers. Our friend at Pacific Coast Harvest, Chris, has hooked all of our Seattle friends up with a promo-code that gets you 50% off your first box! Just use code "bitesnbubbly"  at check out and you'll be enjoying all this beautiful produce at 1/2 price for your next Bite and Bubbly. Cheers! XoXo- Sarah and Mo
