Naturally fast-food chain LEON launched its first range of grocery products into UK supermarket Sainsbury’s last year with a selection of four vegan mayonnaises followed later but its famous skin-on waffle fries.

Now it’s making it easier to enjoy some of its best-selling restaurant dishes from the past few years so you can enjoy the LEON experience in the comfort of your own home as it launches a new line of ready meals with plenty of vegan options.

Ready meals

Available in Sainsbury’s stores now priced at £4 each are four brand new healthy yet tasty gluten-free and vegan ready meals to choose from which take inspiration from different cuisines around the world.

LEON favourite, the comforting Brazilian-style Black Beans dish, is also now available in ready meal form along with the plant-rich Sweet Potato Katsu Curry which contains 2 of your 5 a day in one delicious dish.

Perfect for warming winter meals, the rich Lentil Masala coconut curry spiced with cumin, ginger and mustard seeds and the Sri Lankan-inspired creamy Coconut and Lime Jackfruit Curry with jackfruit, sweet potato and carrots are also now on sale.

Also launching alongside the ready meals in the chilled aisle are five new vegan Mediterranean-inspired sides including Aioli Mac ‘N’ Cheeze bites with a gooey, garlic-infused, mini macaroni and vegan cheese centre all in a crisp crumb and Mediterranean Mac ‘N’ Cheeze Bites with a cheesy, sun-dried tomato and herb bechamel.

The range also features the Chimichurri Cheeze & Herbs Bites with vegan cheese, infused with parsley and green herbs in a crisp crumb and crunchy Caulipower Wings.

Last but not least are the new Crispy Mushroom Nuggets made from king oyster mushroom slices dusted in porcini mushrooms for flavour all wrapped up a crispy crumb coating. All of the vegan sides are available at Sainsbury’s now priced at £3 each.

Charlotte Di Cello, chief commercial officer at LEON, told Retail Times: “With our first ever Grocery anniversary around the corner, expanding our range will always be so important to us as we want our customers to experience the great tasting products that LEON has to offer in both our restaurants and in the comfort of their own home.”
