Mooney Farms/Bella Sun Luci *Review and Giveaway*

Mooney Farms

Built on a foundation of family values, quality, and integrity, three generations of our family work at Mooney Farms. We have a history of using premium ingredients to create a line of healthy Mediterranean inspired products for today’s consumer.

Thanks to the generosity of the folks at Mooney Farms, I was sent six of their best selling sun dried tomato products. 
California Sun Dried Tomatoes Julienne Cut with Italian Basil
California Sun Dried Tomatoes Julienne Cut with Zesty Peppers
Sun Dried Tomatoes in Olive Oil and Herbs - Halves
Sun Dried Tomatoes in Olive Oil and Herbs - Julienne Cut
Sun Dried Tomato Pesto with whole pinenuts
Sun Dried Tomato Bruschetta with Italian Basil
I knew I was going to get something good, but I was overwhelmed by the deliciousness of these products! I can not stress how much I love them! They are so moist, tender and they taste much sweeter than I imagined!

On the Mooney Farms website, you can find some healthy, quick and easy recipes. I decided to try out their Smoked Turkey and Sun Dried Tomato Wraps. I was going to a baby shower that evening and I knew this would be a perfect snack to bring. I cut the wraps into bite sized pieces. Inside the wrap, among other ingredients, there is a jar of Bella Sun Luci sun dried tomato pesto and a jar Bella Sun Luci Sun Dried Tomato julienne cut. They were definitely a favorite of the guests! I couldn't help but notice how quick these disappeared! Luckily, I saved a few at home for me and the kids to snack on. We all loved them and will surely make more in the near future!

This is my favorite product!

My family went crazy over this! We dabbed a bit onto slices of italian bread and heated it in the oven for a few minutes. Such a quick and delicious snack!

On a quest to add a twist to our usual tuna bagel, I decided to sprinkle some California Sun Dried Tomatoes Julienne Cut with Italian Basil onto the top. I know, you probably weren't expecting that, and neither was my husband at the time, but it turned out great! It added a kick to the plain ol' tuna bagel. I would highly recommend this!
*Please excuse the Backyardigans plate. The kids helped prepare.
I added some Sun Dried Tomato Olive Oil and Herbs~Halves to my salad one night. Delivered a burst of flavor with each bite!

 Out of the 6 products, the Bruschetta Sun Dried Tomato with Extra Virgin Olive Oil was my favorite. The two I didn't try was the Sun Dried Tomato Pesto with Pine Nuts and the California Sun Dried Tomatoes Julienne Cut with Zesty Peppers. There is not doubt in my mind they are just as good as the others...I just wanted to save them for a special occasion.
