Lundberg Family Farms (GIVEAWAY CLOSED). And a Review!

Lundberg Family Farms® specialize in organic, gluten-free, and whole grain rice products and offer more than 150 healthful options. Check it...

At home, Otto eats organic 95% of the time (by design). Making sure I feed my son a well-balanced, chemical-minimized diet, is hugely important to me. (I truly believe garbage in, garbage out.) So when I got the opportunity to review a wholesome Lundberg product and host a giveaway... Ummm, yeah, of course I was all over it!

The Review...

We were given the opportunity to try any 1 Lundberg product. But when I was shopping at the Sunflower Market, I was overwhelmed by choices! Happy to say our local grocery carries a LOT of Lundberg. So I picked up 2 products and gladly considered my "1 free" coupon a "50% off 2" coupon instead. I chose Penne Organic Brown Rice Pasta as well as Spinach and Mushroom Risotto Florentine. They were both DELISH! My favorite was the brown rice pasta. I've tried various brands of brown rice pasta and have found the texture often leaves a bit to be desired. Not so this time. I actually followed the cooking instructions on the package (this is a giant step for man and a giant leap for mankind) and the pasta turned out perfectly al dente with a nice, earthy flavor similar to whole wheat pasta. I topped it with a homemade organic garlic & spinach white sauce, organic steamed peas, and freshly chopped up organic tomatoes. The whole family loooooved it. (Read: no leftovers)

I am trying to enter the giveaway but also really wanted to comment, I love the Christmas rice, makes a great salad with the fresh mandarins we have in the area, apples and a little light dressing with dried cranberries OR WHATEVER YOU WANT, pretty presentation. Also like the wild rice blends. I can't say enought about Lundbergs and spread the word to everyone I meet when talking about healthy eating.

Love all Lundberg gluten free products and so do my kids. Since being diagnosed, it is hard to find a rice product that does not have gluten unless it is totally homemade. Have liked Lundberg on FB some time ago and will like you too. It is hard for us to find the dairy free versions of Lundberg here so I would love to win this for our family of 5!
