If you are anything like our family, Summer school holidays passed in a blur. With three children going in different directions daily, keeping tabs on who was where and how many people needed feeding was constant. However, the lack of school routine and activities made meal times more relaxing and we returned to the simplicity of relying mainly on summer salads and BBQ’s which require little menu planning. Now that school is back, I’m a relieved to welcome some structure back into the mix of parenting and running Essence, but my menu planning definitely needs some work.

At Essence we are always surprised by how much soup we sell in Melbourne over summer and 2021 is no exception. Our Detox soup sales were impressive again this week, it’s consistently our most popular flavour, even through winter . There are eight green vegetables, green chilli, ginger, garlic and honey which make it an extra healthy option, plus it’s vegetarian and gluten free.

We recently had some feedback from Jennifer who wrote “You are offering important options for people concerned with healthy eating but with limited time for cooking”.

Thanks Jennifer, providing premium, convenient meal solutions is what we do best. And, as always, we remain thankful to each of our customers who include us in their weekly meal routine.
