    Be adventurous with your lunchtime cuisine with Off The Eaten Path

    All too often, we make do with a standard sandwich – when actually there are thousands of different and easy ways to enjoy lunch and be more adventurous with it. To help inspire people to try something new and spice up their lunchtimes, Off The Eaten Path has collaborated with renowned chef Deborah Thompson.

    Off The Eaten Path is a range of new and delicious snacks made with real vegetables. Ideal as a tasty snack in your bag at work, they can also compliment your lunch; especially with the below recipes crafted in collaboration with Deborah.

    Deborah Thompson and Off The Eaten Path are on a mission to help people eat exciting meals that are simple, quick and easy to make. Inspired by the different flavours in the new snacks range, they’ve created three unique recipes, which you can whip up in the week to take to work or have at home.

    The new snacks which Deborah has included within each of her adventurous lunch ideas provide a source of fibre, contain no artificial colours or preservatives, and are made from ingredients such as rice, green peas, pinto beans and white beans. Every snack is then seasoned with either simple sea salt, sour cream and cracked black pepper, or caramelised onion and balsamic vinegar flavouring for a delicious snack.

     

    Flavours include:

    • Sea Salt Crispy Rice & Pea Chips
    • Sour Cream and Cracked Black Pepper Flavour Crispy Rice & Pea Chips
    • Sea Salt Crunchy Pea & Pinto Bean Sticks
    • Caramelised Onion and Balsamic Vinegar Flavour Crunchy Pea & Pinto Bean Sticks

     

    Each dish includes unusual ingredients that you might not have tried before, or thought were hard to incorporate into a meal – together they’ve also constructed 10 simple hacks to make ensure your food is fresh, fast and exciting.

     

    Top tips for adventurous eating:

    1. Get your adventure on by updating classics like the egg salad sandwich. Deconstruct it and add some exotic spices like dukkah to liven it up.

     

    1. Swap out traditional ingredients like noodles and lettuce for courgette and kale to

    keep things light and full of vitamins and minerals.

    1. Pack snacks that you will actually want to eat. Off the Eaten Path is perfect for this. They’re delicious and great for popping in a lunch bag or a handbag for that snack craving.

     

    1. Blend sauces and infuse flavours to create new salad dressings and marinades, like the Thai peanut dipping sauce – but keep them on the side until you’re ready to eat.

     

    1. Pair fruit with savoury foods to create a whole new flavour profile and make the most of seasonal fruit.

     

    1. Pick foods that can withstand a few hours without refrigeration, like kale for salads and veggie noodles rather than pasta that can go soggy, so that you can get out there adventuring and still enjoy a stellar lunch.

     

    1. Add micro greens to your dishes. Usually reserved for fancy restaurants, these micro greens, widely available in supermarkets now, pack a flavour and jazz up your meal.

     

    1. Incorporate baby vegetables and multi-coloured veggies into your lunches such as candy beetroot and rainbow carrots. These all have different flavours than the regular varieties that are widely available.

     

    1. Use things like carrot tops or beetroot tops to make sauces like pesto. Eliminate waste and create a totally different and adventurous dip/sauce.

     

    1. Add sliced cucumber and mint to water, rather than lemon for a change.

    Three recipes to make lunchtime memorable
