Muscle Food wonky recipe boxes
Online retailer Muscle Food is launching meal kits that only use 'wonky' ingredients that would otherwise be rejected as part of its drive to fight food waste.
Muscle Food said the pre-portioned wonky recipe kits will also cut down on kitchen leftovers.
The company stressed the new kits are 'low in price, calories and fat'. All of the kits are retailing at £4.75, including the the Sticky Chilli Sausage and Veg Bake Recipe Kit, which contains low fat pork sausages, a spicy chilli ketchup and vegetables including carrots, courgettes and potatoes.
Other kits now available include Piri Piri Chicken with Wedges and Sweet Mustard Pork with Roast Veg.
Amy Kershaw, Head of Product Innovation, commented: “Wonky meal kits tick all the boxes – they’re nutritious, convenient and ethical. By making the most of ‘wonky’ ingredients that might otherwise be discarded, customers are doing their bit to help the planet and making the food we go stretch further.
“As the meals are all perfectly portioned for one diner too, there’s no waste at the cooking stage either. The kits are also simple and fast from fridge to plate, whilst making no sacrifices on the nutritional side. They’re packed full of protein and vegetable goodness, and low in fat and calories – perfect for health conscious and eco-conscious customers alike."
