And It’s…
BBQ Time! Shall we marinate the meat or shall be use a rub this time round? Let’s rub the meats! All you need is to coat the cuts with a little olive oil and rub in these spice mixes. Leave to stand in the fridge for a couple of hours before grilling! Ideally the meats should rest out of the fridge for at least 1/2 an hour before cooking so they aren’t too cold. Meat rubs are a fantastic alternative to our usual marinades! Give them a try!

Smoothing Your Day Smoothies are blender superstars. There is no simpler, vitamin-packed way to start your day or snack after school or work than to whiz up whatever fruit is lurking in your fridge, freezer or fruit bowl. To tempt you to take up smoothie making this summer, we’ve come up with exotic fruit and jewel-like berry smoothies; both made with a scoop or two of Tesco Frozen Yogurt for extra wicked flavour.

Ingredients: 100ml Tesco Coconut Milk 100ml pineapple juice juice of 1 lime
