Gorton's *Review and Giveaway*

Monday, August 16, 2010

    I love Gorton's products!  Ever since I could remember my mom has been making their fish.  So when I got the opportunity to review some of their products, I was so happy!  So now that you know I've eating Gorton's for year, you obviously know I love them!  I got the chance to try the Gorton's Lemon Peppercorn Tilapia, and the Gorton's Grilled Shrimp.  And let me tell you, they were so delicious!  I even got to try out some new delicious recipes!  I love how fast you get dinner, or lunch ready with Gorton's.  And as a mom, you know we're all pressed for time, and the faster the better!  I also love all the health benefits that come with eating fish, so you can tell Gorton's is the number one product I turn to!
    Gorton's Lemon Peppercorn Tilapia is high-quality tilapia that's deliciously seasoned with real lemon and cracked pepper, then flame-grilled for an authentic just-off-the grill flavor.  Each package contains two fillets, and retails for $3.39-$3.99.  Gorton's Grilled Shrimp is marinated with real herbs and spices and open-fame grilling provide an authentic grilled flavor.  The shrimp comes in an easy-open, re-sealable, stand-up package so you can cook as much or as little as you want.  Retails for $7.99-$8.29.
    Overall the whole family loved these Gorton's products!  They tasted great, and were fast meals to put together!  These would be great for fiesta type birthday party (think fish tacos), or a fish type birthday party theme.  I even know what recipe I'm going to try next (see below)!  I would recommend any of Gorton's products to anyone!
