Foster Farms Honey Crunch Gluten Free Corn Dog Review and Giveaway

Months ago while Honey and I were shopping at Kroger I noticed gluten free corn dogs. I said something about them and Honey told me to go back and buy some but I didn't because I just didn't feel like I needed them. When you continue to gain weight there are just some things you have to do without. Much later while preparing to watch college football on Saturday and thinking about what type of stadium food we would be having for lunch I thought about those corn dogs and wished that I had a box at that very moment. I make my own and they are great but I have found that there are days, and football Saturday is one of them, when I want to be lazy and put little preparation into our meal.

When Foster Farms contacted me about reviewing one of their products and conducting a giveaway imagine my surprise when I found out that I would be reviewing corn dogs during football season. Wow it doesn't get any better than this! Here's a picture of what I received.

My Review:

I loved eating my a couple of corn dogs while watching college football, it made me feel like a kid again and they were wonderful. I allowed Honey a bite, only one, so he could tell me what he thought and he really liked them too.

We both agreed that they are covered in a slightly sweet crunchy batter while maintaining that moist flavorful center. I stopped after two but could have easily eaten more, I promise they won't last long.

Recipe for Dipping Sauce

Rudi's Gluten-Free Bakery Giveaways

When approached about promoting the launch of these new gluten free tortillas I didn't have to think twice. I've tried these tortilla's and have nothing but great things to say you can search my blog to read my reviews. Just like all of the Rudi products they are wonderful!!!

Rudi’s Gluten-Free Bakery has a surprise for gluten-free food lovers with its new What’s Under Wraps Facebook campaign. For three weeks starting today, Aug. 13, Rudi’s Gluten-Free Facebook fans can guess what kitchen gizmos are wrapped in the new Rudi’s Gluten-Free Tortillas for a chance to win what’s underneath. Additionally, once fans “like” Rudi’s Gluten-Free on Facebook, they can receive a $2 off coupon to try out the three Gluten-Free Tortilla flavors—Plain, Spinach and Fiesta, and also gain access to new tortilla recipes revealed each day. Rudi’s Gluten-Free was founded on the optimistic idea that you don’t have to give anything up to go gluten-free, so celebrating its new line of Gluten-Free Tortillas makes perfect sense.

Once fans “like” the brand and get access to the $2 off coupon, they can click on the giveaway tab and guess what new prize is wrapped under the scrumptious, new tortillas. Once a fan has submitted a guess, they’re automatically entered to win the daily prizes—no correct guess required. Prizes include a Cuisinart Stainless-Steel Ice Cream Maker, Bella  Quesadilla Maker, Tiago Tortilla Warmer and a Le Creuset Dutch Oven, and of course, new Rudi’s Gluten-Free Tortillas. Each daily winner will be chosen at random and announced on Facebook the following day.

To help inspire some added creativity in the kitchen, the What’s Under Wraps Facebook application also includes a daily recipe reveal featuring recipes made with the different flavors of Gluten-Free Tortillas, including recipes like Dessert Nachos, Mini-Mexican Pizzas and Picnic Tortilla Roll-Ups. All recipes were created by Rudi’s Gluten-Free experts to maximize the taste and texture of the new Gluten-Free Tortillas. 

“We take great care and pride in baking delicious gluten-free products that taste and feel like the real thing, and our new campaign is meant to inspire gluten-free fans with cheerful prizes and delectable tortilla recipes,” said Doug Radi, senior vice president of marketing and sales for Rudi’s Organic Bakery. “We hope our daily giveaway will help brighten the day for all of our fans and inspire some fun in the kitchen.

Rudi’s Gluten-Free products are free of artificial ingredients, preservatives and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), including the new Gluten-Free Tortillas.  The Tortillas are made with whole grain flours and have a soft, pliable texture, ready to be rolled into a delicious burrito or tasty sandwich wrap. To satisfy everyone in the family, the Tortillas are available in three varieties, each made with simple and wholesome ingredients, including whole grains and 5 grams of fiber per serving. The three flavors include:

·         Plain Tortillas (MSRP - $5.99) - Soft and pliable so they’re perfect for building a simple quesadilla or a loaded chicken burrito.

·         Spinach Tortillas (MSRP - $5.99) – These delicious tortillas are made with gluten-free ingredients moms can feel good about. Their soft and pliable texture make them the perfect wrap for a variety of ingredients, from a chicken Caesar wrap to a morning egg and cheese delight.

Rice Select Review and Giveaway

Me living in the land of farmers and rice being one of the main crops here made this review/giveaway even more special. We eat a lot of rice dishes so I knew that this review would be easy!

First off I made a Chicken and Rise Casserole and it was really good but a bit dryer than I like. I realized later that I had added three cups of rice instead of 2 cups. Uggg

Later I made plain rice to eat along with vegetables, cornbread and pork chops. Oh, my the rice was great without adding extra butter. I cooked it according to package directions and it came out perfect and the amazing thing to me was it didn't stick to the pan, such easy clean up.

I can't wait to use the rest of my rice and try new things. I can feel some chicken and rice soup in the near future.

Since agreeing to do this review I have noticed that we have RiceSelect in many of our local groceries, yea for me.
