New Year, New You!

It wouldn’t be a new year without some well-meaning resolutions and 2016 is no different for us at Hunters HQ; the most common amongst all of us (except for Rob, our in-house fitness buff), is to eat a healthier more balanced diet, particularly after the festive over-indulgence of recent weeks! Luckily we have some fantastically tasty and nutritious products from our Hunter’s Gourmet and Hunter’s Collection ranges to help us make the right food choices and to ensure our good intentions don’t go to our waist! At Hunter Foods, we don’t believe that flavour needs to be sacrificed in order to be healthy and we’ve made it our business to source flavoursome, nutritious and gourmet foods from around the globe for this very reason. There are lots of tasty alternatives that are higher in nutrients that (thanks to us!) are waiting for you on the shelves of the region’s favourite stores! Here are our top picks: Breakfast Arguably the most important meal of the day and Lizi’s Granola from our Hunter’s Collection range is delicious, nutritious and G.L measured (which means its suitable for diabetics), there’s even a ‘On the Go’ version for those of us often too busy to sit and enjoy our mornings! With a Gluten-free option, a Low Sugar option and now a High Protein variety hitting the shelves- whatever your 2016 resolution – there is a Lizi’s variety for you. If granola isn’t your thing try sprinkling some of the Hunter’s Gourmet organic super food range over your usual cereal, yogurt or add it to a healthy shake at any time of the day. Our Organic Flax Seed and Organic Chia Seeds are a great option for a serious health boost. Both rich with with Omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, B-vitamins and phytoestrogens, all of which can help to reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, strokes and diabetes! Snacks… without the guilt! If, like us, you struggle to stop dipping in and out of your treats, our Sahale Snacks will keep your energy levels up (before you start your new year gym classes!) with a unique combo of premium nuts, dried fruits and exotic spices in a variety of combinations. If sugar is your Achilles heel, you cant possibly top the natural sweetness in a bag of Hunter’s Gourmet Mixed Fruit Chips; the finest apples, juices yellow peaches and sweet strawberries all delicately dehydrated to lock in flavour, nutrients and crunch! For the savoury snackers amongst you – why not try the recently launched Hunter’s Gourmet Beetroot Chips high in protein, powerful antioxidants and soluble fibre, without compromising on flavour. Lunch, forget your cheese sandwich! Our Italian-made Multi-Cereal Cakes are 100% organic and available in eight varieties. Delicious combined with savoury or sweet toppings, they are a healthier, nutrient-packed alternative to bread. With such a large range of alternative grains available you can choose the right one for your diet without sacrificing on taste. A Decent Dinner If your evening meal usually consists of a takeaway or is heavy on the refined pasta, bread and rice, Quinoa is a fabulously quick, tasty and versatile option. Fast to cook, it can be mixed with almost anything to make a filling side dish or main meal. Naturally gluten-free and containing iron, B-vitamins, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, vitamin E and fibre, Hunter’s Gourmet Organic White Quinoa and our Tri-Colour Quinoa are excellent sources of protein and essential amino acids. We’d love to hear how you have used our products in your dishes and are cheering you on your way to a healthier you!
