PRODUCE

STRAWBERRIES

Strawberries are a spring favourite. With tamariki still at school they are great to pop into lunchboxes. Adding strawberries to green salads is a crowd-pleaser at BBQs. Strawberries make for a fresh and healthy dessert. They are a good source of vitamin C and also a source of fibre which we need for gut health.

CHERRY TOMATOES

Cherry tomatoes are bursting with flavour! Give your pasta dishes a lift by adding a couple of handfuls of cherry tomatoes. Cherry tomatoes are another fun snack for lunchboxes. Their vitamin A content is great for helping to maintain eye health.

telegraph cucumber

Although technically a fruit, we use telegraph cucumbers like vegetables. Their high water content and mild flavour make them super refreshing. Whether sliced, diced or ribboned they add texture to fresh spring salads. 

BUTCHERY & SEAFOOD

lamb loin chops

Lamb loin chops are a delightful springtime treat. Grill these tender cuts with your favourite herbs for a mouthwatering barbecue. They're rich in protein and iron for a hearty, balanced meal.

whole prawns

Large raw prawns add elegance to your spring cuisine. Use them in pasta, curry, or stir-fry for a taste of the ocean. Serve as a shrimp cocktail for a refreshing appetizer. Prawns are packed with protein and omega-3 for a healthy, low-calorie option.
