New service – Frozen Ready Meals!  Aiming to bring a smile to your face

Published by admin on

We are pleased to announce our brand new Frozen Ready Meals range – with a menu which we can adapt to most food allergies.

This new catering service is available in the Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire areas. We answered a call from a customer. The caller requested some freshly cooked meals for his 91-year-old father. Who must have a restricted diet due to his allergies and requirement for soft foods.

The customer called us rather than going to the local supermarket, as they said: “It can be difficult to find suitable frozen meals in the supermarkets due to my fathers’ restricted diet” And added – “I do hope you decide to give the idea a try, you would bring smiles to the faces of a lot of older people confined to their homes.”

How could we not give it a go!?…

So, with all of this in mind we quickly came up with a plan:

We put together 4 meals that were made to fit with his restrictive diet. We delivered the 1st selection of meals in October and have just delivered the next month’s choices  – freshly frozen delicious meals.

Typical 4 meal-based menu per month can include: Fish Pie Cottage Pie Beef Casserole Chicken & Chorizo. We can cater for Vegetarians/Plant Based diets.

Area covered – Herts and Beds.

Just a few of the allergens that can be typically found in supermarket bought meals:

Corn   (or any corn derived products, which often appear in processed foods)

Corn oil, any oil called ‘vegetable oil’ as these and be a mix of oils which includes corn oil Corn syrup – found in soft drinks, some canned fruit Corn starch – found in stock cubes, mustard powder, curry powder, thickening agents (including cornflour), tinned & packet soups, modified starch

Vitamin C/Ascorbic acid/ascorbate – added to food as a preservative

Citric Acid – added to canned foods, also marked as preservative

Dextrose –found in some processed meats including some types of bacon

Glucose, glucose syrup  – found in some canned fruit

Wheat, Barley, Oats, Rye  (or any other grains)

Includes flour, pasta, bread, biscuits, cakes, mustard powder, beer, curry powder, malt vinegar

Rice –  Includes rice flour, rice milk and rice powder, rice vinegar

We think our “taste of homemade” freshly frozen meals are the answer to this because we cook in small batches just as you would at home then freeze into individual portions. If you would like to order some frozen meals for you, someone who is perhaps poorly or for your elderly relative please get in touch and let us know your requirements including whether you require a special diet such as vegetarian or plant based and any known allergens and we will come up with a tailor-made menu for you.
