Monday

LOW-FAT•PEANUT-FREE

Green bean spaghetti

Marks & Spencer

Made with Remarksable Value green beans and spaghetti that’s air-dried in the Italian Alps, this meat-free Monday pasta recipe will become your family’s new fave. The pistachios add a lovely crunch, but you could try swapping them for toasted breadcrumbs or whatever nuts you have to hand.

Tuesday

PEANUT-FREE•TREE NUT-FREE

Spiced beef meatballs with creamy labneh and crunchy slaw

Marks & Spencer

Transform everyday, Remarksable Value ingredients – like yogurt, British beef mince, free-range eggs, carrots and celery – into this Middle Eastern-inspired feast. The lightly spiced meatballs are served with labneh, a thick and creamy strained yogurt dip that’s super easy to make at home.

Wednesday

PEANUT-FREE•TREE NUT-FREE

Cream of mushroom risotto

Marks & Spencer

Adding a tin of Remarksable Value mushroom soup to this risotto is a genius hack that gives it a beautifully creamy texture and rich, mushroomy flavour (and makes it friendly on your wallet). Finish with grated Remarksable Value mature British cheddar for even more melty, savoury deliciousness.

Thursday

PEANUT-FREE•TREE NUT-FREE

Spinach and cheese strata

Marks & Spencer

A strata is a bit like a savoury bread and butter pudding. Made with Remarksable value free-range eggs, bread, eggs and cheddar, our veggie version is a comforting, cheesy, fluffy one-tray wonder that’s as delicious for dinner with a zingy green salad as it is for weekend brunch.

Friday

PEANUT-FREE•TREE NUT-FREE

French-fry topped cowboy pie

Marks & Spencer

What could make succulent baked sausages and beans even better? Topping them with our Remarksable Value frozen French fries, that’s what! Treat everyone to this please-all Friday night dinner, which also uses great-value baked beans and cheddar to create an oozy, golden topping.
