No. 1 nutrition and food tracking app and iconic hot sauce brand want to show consumers that hot sauce is a great way to add flavor and excitement to healthy meals

NEW YORK, May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Turning up the heat on healthier meals, MyFitnessPal announces a partnership with TABASCO^® Brand to show consumers that the brand's hot sauces are a great way to add flavor and excitement to healthy meals. As the number one global food and nutrition tracking app, MyFitnessPal's community regularly logs TABASCO^® Brand hot sauces as a go-to condiment of choice. Focusing on the flavor profile of several TABASCO^® Brand's best-sellers, the MyFitnessPal team reimagined ten recipes and with simple swaps, making them healthier without sacrificing the flavor.

A staple in kitchens across the country, TABASCO^® Brand hot sauces are center stage in a new co-branded recipe collection now available on the free MyFitnessPal app and blog for easy meals that pack a punch of flavor. When compared against traditional preparations, fan-favorite dishes like Chicken Fajitas lose 169 calories, 6.4g of fat, and 504.9mg of sodium, while remaining just as tasty.

Reimagined recipes featured on the app and blog include:

Chipotle Black Bean Burgers With Avocado Salsa and TABASCO^® Brand Chipotle Pepper Sauce
Butternut-Sausage Breakfast Casserole with TABASCO^® Original Red Sauce
Chicken Fajitas Lettuce Wraps with TABASCO^® Brand Sriracha
Flank Steak with Avocado Salsa and TABASCO^® Original Red Sauce
Broccoli Quinoa Tabouli with TABASCO^® Brand Green Pepper Sauce

"Condiments are often filled with hidden calories, fat, and sodium that can slow down our momentum as we strive to reach our health goals, such as weight loss," says Katie Keil, MyFitnessPal Chief Marketing Officer. "There should never be a feeling of deprivation for people working to create healthier, more sustainable lifestyles. We partnered with TABASCO^® Brand to show consumers that delicious, nutritious food doesn't need to come at the expense of flavor."

As part of this collaboration, MyFitnessPal x TABASCO^® Brand dropped limited-edition, hot sauce holsters. Some lucky fans will be gifted this summer's hottest accessory, when they post a photo or video of how they incorporate hot sauce into their dishes, using the #DoTheSauceSwap hashtag.
