Morrisons new summer food in The Best range 2025

No comments

Morrisons is rolling out the picnic blanket with the launch of its new summer range, offering a mix of dressed-up BBQ staples, sides and desserts.

The lineup is aimed at shoppers leaning into more casual, sociable eating - from “picky tea” snacks like cheddar & onion muffins and mini quiches, to fully-loaded grill favourites like the brisket burgers topped with kimcheese and the tandoori king kebabs.

There’s also a focus on bold, international flavours and while staying affordable, reflecting ongoing shopper demand for premium quality at own-label prices

Barbecue:

The Best British Steak Burger Topped with Kimcheese

£5/400g

Volume sales of posh red meat products grew 10.8% last summer, Kantar found in this year’s barbecue category report. This was partly driven by retailer initiatives such as Tesco Steakhouse, aimed at shoppers who are eating out less to save money meaning this Morrions innovation is right on the money.

@emthenutritionist Smokey caramelised red pepper orzo A summer dinner must make, perfect for midweek but delicious enough to impress for guests. Sticky Smokey shallots and red peppers cooked down until they are rich and gorgeous, served with garlic prawns but you can use any protein you like. You will need to serve 2 353kcal & 12g protein (not including prawns) 1 red pepper, sliced into strips 1 large banana shallot, finely sliced 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 tsp honey 1 heaped tsp sweet smoked paprika 200g cherry tomatoes, whole 1 chicken stock cube 1 tbsp sundried tomato purée 150g orzo Fresh chives Lemon To serve: feta, protein of choice and more chives (For the garlic prawns mix 200g raw prawns with 1 tsp garlic granules, olive oil, salt pepper and lemon. Sear in a hot pan for 30 seconds, flip and pan fry for a minute, toss then they are done) In a deep pan, heat a little olive oil over a medium heat. Slowly cook the onions and red peppers with a tbsp sundried tomato puree for 5 minutes. Add the honey, cherry tomatoes and cook for another 5 minutes until sticky and caramelised. Add in the garlic, smoked paprika, a pinch of salt and pepper. Sweat for a final 5 minutes, add in the orzo and mix. Pour in 350ml water add the chicken stock cube and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir regularly to stop the orzo from sticking, and top up with extra water if needed to make sure it doesn’t dry out. Once the orzo is just cooked, taste and season if needed. Add in 1 tbsp freshly chopped chives and a little squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with any protein, I opted for garlic prawns. and a crumble of feta and extra scattering of chives. #healthyrecipes #dinnerideas #healthyfood ♬ original sound - Emily English
