Transcript

Hi. I'm Catherine, director of product development at M and S Foods. Let's pop into tier food hall to show you some of my favorite products that have launched this week. So this week, we've launched five, what we're calling, bags of flavor, and it's chicken already marinated for you in the bag. So I don't know about you, but when I look at a recipe in the morning for that evening and it says marinate your chicken overnight, my heart sinks because Bad haven't been that organized. But this has all been done for you. Always store covered ingredients, and this is my personal favorite, which is jalapeno and herb. A few of you have posted about these on TikTok, but these are our new fruit salads with tier dressing, which I absolutely love. So fresh, so zingy. And then also we've got watermelon and lime rank pineapple and lime kebabs, another great healthy snack. Okay. Let's go and find the shakers. Oh, before we do though, try some overnight oats, one of my favorite. Overnight oats with chia seeds, two really good protein, and then it's got a custard style yogurt and a raspberry compote. I love this. Thanks to everybody on TikTok who started the viral trend of the shaker cucumbers where you slice your cucumber and you put a really lovely dressing with it and then you shake it up and all your cucumber gets coated. We've launched two this week, a shaker cucumber with a spicy sesame and mayonnaise dressing. Also, the big dill is with a gherkin cream and cheese dressing. These are just perfect for your lunch or an afternoon snack. So that's me done. Got Phillipa's light, my chicken jalapeno, and also my snack for my desk, my big dill shaker cucumber. See you soon.
