REVIEW + COMPETITION: Aleyna 'Sun Kissed' Range

I was delighted to review some of the new Aleyna 'Sun Kissed' range to review. This is what I thought...


Aleyna Sun Kissed Tomatoes
I loved these - before I say anything else, I have to say that... They are SO delicious. They are sun ripened and slow roasted tomatoes - they are deliciously sweet and succulent and very flavoursome and juicy. I ate some straight out of the jar and they really are supremely delicious. My husband tried them too and really enjoyed them.

Aleyna Sun Kissed Peppers
In general, I wouldn't eat peppers on their own - I can only generally tolerate them as an ingredient in different foods, so I was pleasantly surprised when tasting these as I thought they were very nice. Although I preferred the tomatoes in the range, I very much liked these peppers too. Again, they are slow roasted and are very soft, succulent and tasty. They also have a touch of oregano and garlic which just intensifies their delicious taste. As with the tomatoes, I tasted these peppers straight out of the jar too. My husband really enjoyed these and I had to take them away from him quickly to stop him eating the whole jar!
They have kindly given me some extras to offer to you, my readers. Details of the competition are below...

    These sound lovely and I think they'd be nice mixed through pasta with some olives, sliced mushrooms, bacon (or chicken, tuna, salmon, ham - it's very versatile this!) and pesto. Sprinkle some parmesan on top - delicious!

  10. I think these would be lovely toppings for bruschetta with some tapanade or artichoke puree underneath and perhaps with a little mozzerella cheese on top

  19. following your blog via google friends connect. I have tried the peppers but not the tomatoes. I use the peppers just as they are in salads (yum!)but also like to chop them and add them to home made soups. I would use the tomatoes in a home made veggie & gluten free lasagna. I ususally use passata to give a nice tomatoey flavour so these would be a nice change and a chance to experiment! @susanwillshee
