Summer of sport recipes

It’s set to be a thrilling summer of sport in 2024 and we have plenty of recipes on hand for feeding friends and family as you enjoy the events. Think homemade burgers, nachos, pizza and more to keep everyone fuelled through all the action…

We’re pleased to be teaming up with Strong Roots – pioneers in veg-forward frozen food – to bring you crowdpleasing ideas for your summer of sport get-togethers. Our hero recipe? Gyros – the beloved chip-stuffed Greek wrap. Ours are filled with thick wedges of mushroom and Strong Roots’ new crispy crinkle-cut fries, which work in perfect harmony with fresh tzatziki and tomato salad. The recipe is plant-based too, so everyone can enjoy in front of the games – try it now.

Need more ideas to feed your team? Fry up some smash burgers, enjoy golden halloumi fries or add some fire to the spread with these sticky buffalo wings with blue cheese sauce. We’ve got sweet inspiration too, including strawberry ice cream sandwiches and DIY iced party rings. Score!
