Winter Warmers: Ready Meal Options

What’s better on a cold day than a warm fire and a bowl of chicken and vegetable casserole? Coming home to this delicious ready meal of vegetables, tender chicken and fluffy mashed potato makes colder days so much more appealing. So much so, we think you’ll be keen to order seconds!

Colder days call for warm nourishing soups, full of goodness and flavour. That’s why we’ve been working on a few new options in the kitchen, to make lunch time or lighter meals just as satisfying. A classic, our new Pea and Ham Soup is seasoned with onion and a mix of vegetables and herbs. Or why not cosy up with a bowl of our delicious Tomato Soup with a hint of cream and a sprinkling of black pepper. 

Settle down to an authentic Italian dish of tasty beef meatballs in a rich tomato sauce on a bed of spaghetti. A satisfying dish, packed full of delicious flavour, it’s a wholesome ready meal that has our mouth-watering.

Few things hit the spot like a satisfying roast on a cold winter’s day. Our NEW Chef’s Favourites Roast Beef & Yorkshire Pudding and Roast Chicken & Yorkshire Pudding – both oven cook only, are served with our golden roast potatoes, a gluten free Yorkshire pudding, carrots and peas! 

Slowly braised beef and onions in a rich sauce, this tender meaty dish is served with smooth mashed potato, broccoli and mashed swede. It is an extremely enjoyable and comforting dish that our chef’s take pride in preparing. It’s a real winter warmer, which is a firm 5 star favourite with our customers too.

Is there a more classic comfort food than bangers and mash? Not just any old sausage, our two juicy pork and leek sausages are smothered in rich onion gravy alongside indulgent cheddar cheese mash, red cabbage and carrots. Highly appraised by our customers, as well as being one of our Chef Special dishes, we think it will be one of your favourites too.  

Our improved rich and tasty beef bolognaise is layered between lasagne sheets, with a moreish cheese sauce and is now served with carrots and Romano beans. It’s simple and pleasing all year round – but especially with a crackling fire and a glass of red, if you’re offering?

A humble stew is most definitely a go-to ready meal option in winter months. When we need the goodness of seasonal vegetables and the heart-warming flavours of tender beef, topped with a comforting dumpling and mash, a stew ticks all our winter warmer boxes. 

It’s not all about the mains, dessert is often the main event! And what better way to warm your heart than tucking into a warm apple pie and custard? 

We could go on and on, but visit our Hot Desserts page to choose from a selection of devilishly good desserts. After all, there’s always room for a warm pudding when it’s cold out.
