Good nutrition is important at every stage of life \u2013 but there\u2019s no doubt that it becomes increasingly important as we age. Eating healthy, nutrient-rich foods enables us to feel our best and live well. We also know that eating food you actually enjoy is a big part of living well! There\u2019s no need to compromise taste for your well being and at Epicuria we believe in giving you the best of both worlds.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eating well <\/span>and<\/span><\/i> saving time isn\u2019t just possible, it\u2019s easy. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nutritious Meals You\u2019ll Love<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your nutritional needs will change as you age. It\u2019s important to eat unprocessed, whole foods with a balance of quality proteins, carbohydrates and healthy fats. Nutrients like fibre, vitamin D and calcium start to take centre stage. But keeping a diet of nutrient-dense foods sounds more complicated than it is. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don\u2019t necessarily need to be cooking for yourself, from scratch, every day to get these nutrients. Our prepared meals<\/a> are made fresh in house with your health in mind, making it easy to eat well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Easy, Delicious Meals for One (or Two!)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Feeding a single person or two person household is not without its challenges! Cooking smaller portions can be tricky to maintain. Inevitably, this sometimes leads to food waste. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from that, who doesn\u2019t want a little more variety in their meals? Ready-made meals are a great solution for smaller households. They provide options, flexibility and better portion control. These perfectly-portioned meals are ideal for easy, enjoyable senior living. Our prepared meals have an easy to follow label with heating instructions and best before dates.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can explore new flavours or enjoy your favourite classics! From our lemon cod to our beloved shepherd’s pie, there is something for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spend less time cooking and more time socializing, exercising and enjoying the hobbies you love.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking Care of Loved Ones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Are you regularly providing meals for someone close to you, like a parent or relative? If you don’t have time to cook meals to bring over to Mom but you want to make sure she’s got everything she needs, prepared meals might be right for you. Prepared entr\u00e9es and take home foods can simplify your weekly routine, ensuring your loved ones get access to delicious, healthy, and easy dinners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Share the Joy of Food<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Undoubtedly, one of the greatest pleasures of eating is sharing food with those we love! Whether you are sharing with friends or family, you can host with ease. Our ready to serve catering makes for the perfect gathering food. Minimal clean up, plus you don\u2019t have to cook!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ready made dinners are also a great way to provide healthy meals for your loved ones. Get ease of mind without having to spend extra time cooking. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
