Lite n' Easy Questions & Answers (page 4 of 65)

Hi Roger S. The dinner trays are dual-ovenable so they can be heated in either a microwave or conventional oven. However, the lunch trays and some frozen components of the breakfasts and lunches can only be heated in a microwave.

Hi Esme. For food safety purposes we dont recommend refreezing any meals that have become defrosted. All frozen items must remain frozen until they are ready to be heated and consumed.

Hi Petra. We don't suggest you substitute a piece of fruit for full cream milk, as two servings of fruit are part of a healthy diet. Please call 13 15 12 for personalised recommendations.

Hi Melissa. Lite n Easy meal plans provide a nutritionally-balanced, convenient healthy diet with a regular meal pattern which is what people with diabetes may require. As individual needs vary though, we recommend you seek advice from your health professional first.

Hi Angie. If you haven't already, please call 13 15 12 to speak to one of our consultants about updating your delivery options.

Hi Michelle. Yes, you can swap fruit. Simply replace fruit that you don’t care for with a serve of fresh fruit that you enjoy. A portion of fruit is about 150g.

Hi Debby. Thank you for your feedback. Providing portion controlled, nutritionally balanced meals and meal plans requires a certain amount of individual packaging to ensure each item is kept fresh and safe for consumption. One of the positives of supplying single serve meals and snacks, is that it dramatically reduces the food waste which most households throw away each week (some reports have shown that more than 30% of food purchased by Australians ends up in landfill). Nevertheless, we are continually reviewing our packaging options with regards to sustainability and recyclability. One of the more recent initiatives we have put in place is the option for customers to return the plastic carry bags and day bags to us in their esky so that we can have this soft plastic recycled. We hope to announce more initiatives over the coming months.

Hi James. Sulphites are listed as an allergen in our ingredients lists if they are resent in concentrations of 10mg/kg or more (as per FSANZ standard 1.2.3). According to FSANZ, this allows consumers who may be sensitive to sulphites to avoid them. If a meal contains more than 10mg/kg of added sulphites, the ingredients list will state, “Contains Sulphites”.

Hi D. Our food is designed for general healthy eating and unfortunately we are not able to cater for food allergies, intolerance or any special dietary requirements at this stage. Sorry we could not be of more assistance to you.

Hi Korena. We are unable to remove single ingredients or foods from our meals or menus.

Hi Matthewm8. We do not currently offer a discount for concession holders.

Our dinners have around 3 serves of vegetables, 7.5g of fibre only 3.5g of saturated fat. For more information on healthy eating for high cholesterol, refer to recommendations by the Heart Foundation or consult your GP or health practitioner.

Hi Korena. Unfortunately, we are unable to change individual items within the meals. We offer two breakfast meals and two lunch meals that you can choose from each day. We recommend you select the meal that most suits your preference. For more personalised please call 13 15 12 to speak with a consultant.

Hi Travis. Lite n’ Easy does not have a halal offering. Sorry we’re unable to help.

Hi Elaine. The 1800 Calorie program has approximately 450 Calories for breakfast, 550 Calories for lunch, 400 Calories for dinner and 300 Calories for additional snacks. Therefore lunch and dinner on the ‘1800’ Cal plan would be 1250 Calories (excluding your milk allowance). 1 glass of calcium enriched skim milk has approximately 100 Calories. Hope this helps.

Hi Mark. If it's not too much trouble, could you please email your delivery address and best contact telephone number to [email protected] and we will organise for a consultant to contact you about delivery options?

Hi Monica. We recommend you avoid drinking diet soft drinks. These are often sweetened using artificial sweeteners, which can cause cravings especially for sweets that can result in high calorie consumption. Lite n’ Easy takes a wholesome and natural approach and believes sweetness should come from natural sources. Try flavouring your water with fruit.
