For me, marinades are the quickest way to add a punch of flavour to any type of meat. I always marinade my meat in a re-sealable bag, in the fridge and toss away all of the extra marinade.
We have created two excellent marinades for you. Mediterranean – a garlic, oregano, white wine vinegar blend and Herbed Citrus – a garlic, orange, lemon, lime, thyme blend.
What is your favourite marinade? Did you know that making your own marinades at home provides a lower sodium, fat and sugar version for you?
If you buy your meat in larger, more economical packages that you split up into resealable bags and freeze – try adding a marinade before you freeze. That way on those busy nights you have a meal ready to cook.
