Spring is here…it’s time to eat like it!

Spring is officially here, which means it’s time to start shaking up what we’re eating. As the sun comes out and the trees begin to blossom, opting for fresher, lighter meals is the way to go. Here’s some of our favourite ways to eat Aston Lucas Gourmet as the weather gets warmer…

Active mornings = breakfast on-the-go

The icy winter mornings are slowly starting to ease off and daylight savings is fast approaching, which means morning exercise motivation is beginning to pick up. Whether it’s a sunrise lap of the park or a pre-work Pilates class, busier mornings can often leave breakfast as an afterthought. We’ve got your brekky on-the-go covered with our Grab & Go range. For the sweet tooths, try something light from our Yoghurt & Muesli range, or if you’re after something savoury, why not opt for our Egg, Bacon & Cheese Turkish Roll or our Ham & Cheese Croissant?

Lunch al-fresco

As the sun starts to make an appearance, lunch outdoors is the best way to inject some Vitamin D into your day. Spring provides the perfect sweet-spot between bleak winter and scorching hot summer, so why not make the most of this short window of balmy bliss? Grab your favourite co-worker and escape the office or head out for some solo time and enjoy some reprieve from the confinement of your four walls.

Spring has got the weather sorted, and we’ve got the lunch sorted. Go for something light and fresh like our delicious, anything-but-boring salad range. If you’re on the move, try our filling, fun and balanced range of sandwiches and wraps. With over fifty flavour combinations, there really is something for every taste-bud.

Chilly Spring dinners

Spring evenings often bring with them a chill, meaning hot dinners are ideal for cosy nights in. Stock up on our delicious ready-made pasta meals, perfect for those busy nights when cooking becomes a chore. Simply heat for around 3 minutes in the microwave (or slowly heat in the oven) and enjoy! Try our best-selling meat lasagna for a hearty crowd-pleaser or shake things up with a mildly spicy penne amatriciana.

Whether you’re dusting off the picnic rug that’s spent the winter in hibernation, or finally booking that morning yoga class, springtime brings with it an exciting change of pace, and your food should be no exception. Find our meals and snacks in store and online, and enjoy a fresh, flavourful twist on classic favourites.
