Questions, answered

Do they really not need a fridge?

No fridge, no freezer. Each meal is cooked and sealed in its own tray, and that heat treatment is what preserves it, so it keeps for up to 12 months at room temperature.

How long does the penne arrabbiata take to cook?

Microwave it for 1 min 30 sec at 900W or 2 mins at 750W, straight from the box. Prefer the oven? 10 mins at 160°C. Remove the outer sleeve and pierce the film lid first.

How much protein is in the penne arrabbiata?

23g per 260g meal, for 341 kcal. It also has 6.2g of fibre.

What's in it?

Cooked penne (durum wheat semolina, lentil flour, fava bean flour, wheat gluten and pea flour) in an arrabbiata sauce of tomato, sunflower oil, onion, garlic and red chilli. No artificial colours, flavourings or preservatives.

Is it gluten free?

No. The penne contains wheat (gluten), and it may contain traces of soy and mustard.

Is it spicy?

It has a gentle kick from red chilli, but it isn't fiery.

What if I don't like it?

You choose every item yourself, so it's worth spreading your first order across a few flavours and formats, and our team is happy to help you choose.

Where is it made?

Our ready meals are chef-made in Italy.
