Mindful Chef is launching a new range of frozen meals that existing customers, who are ordering fresh recipe boxes, can purchase this month. Following this, the frozen meals can then be ordered individually from the website from May.
Tapping into the trend for convenient meal solutions, Mindful Chef will be bringing its healthy recipes box meals into a unique frozen format. Prepared in small batches from scratch, the convenient dishes are speedily frozen to lock in flavour and nutritional value, meaning people can enjoy a meal in just 7 minutes and 30 seconds in the microwave or 40 minutes in the over.
Working closely with British suppliers, the frozen meals will only contain high-quality ingredients such as 100% grass-fed beef, free-range chicken and fresh fish. The pre-prepared meals are 500 calories or under and are free from refined carbs, gluten and dairy and contain no additives or refined sugars.
The frozen range includes:
• Spicy Panang chicken curry with black rice: Buttery cashew nut and creamy coconut form the basis the bases of the curry. Served with healthy black rice
• Italian-style beef and squash ‘lasagne’: We've swapped pasta sheets for layers of fresh squash in our beef lasagne
• Creamy coconut fish pie with sweet potato mash: A lighter version of the classic, which uses sustainable fish landed in the UK and coconut milk instead of heavy cream. Crushed sweet potato gives the dish a nice vibrant colour
• Pulled barbecue jackfruit with charred corn: The sweet and smoky barbecue jackfruit is shred in this dish to give it a meaty texture and cook. Served with charred corn
From now until Tuesday 16 April, Mindful Chef’s frozen meals will also be available via Deliveroo in Manchester, Battersea (London) and Swiss Cottage (London) – arriving ready to put straight in the freezer.
Tim Lee, CEO of Mindful Chef commented, “Today’s consumers are more time poor than ever and are increasingly conscious about regularly eating healthy food. Mindful Chef’s new frozen meals remain healthy like our recipe box service, and will give customers convenient and nutritious options to fit their lifestyles.
“Working with Deliveroo on the launch has given us the opportunity to reach new customers via a popular food delivery service. We look forward to seeing the response of the trial and using the results to explore different ways that we can deliver Mindful Chef to customers.”
