Mexican Style Scrambled Eggs

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Lyo offer expedition meals using natural, fresh ingredients and no preservatives or artificial additives. They stand out from the crowd with unique recipes, the use of chunky ingredients that result in more natural, home style meals. 

LYO says

This dish has been with humankind for centuries. Since ancient romans, medieval knights, wild west pioneers, 19th century gentlemen and still today we all scramble and eat eggs to start a day. Our variation is enriched with some nutritious ingredients including red beans, goat cheese and corn to give you extra energy for a long day. This breakfast is recommended especially if transporting fragile eggs in the backpack is not your thing. What can be better to start your day?

We are cooking before freeze-drying. In our pouches there are no artificial additives, no extra sugar, no palm oil and no preservatives! Our soups are made from 100% natural ingredients and some of them are growing on our own fields.

Our Verdict

LYO have tried to take a different route with their meals focussing on natural, fresh ingredients and no preservatives or artificial additives. They proudly cultivate some of the fruits and herbs on their own fields. Other fruits and herbs as well as vegetables come from farmers known to them personally. All ingredients are carefully verified to ensure that their products meet the highest quality standards.

The majority of the meals use interesting combinations of natural ingredients with chunky vegetables, authentic flavours and more of a home cooked approach. We’ve been lucky enough to test a variety of them and have always been impressed with the end results. Generally, we appreciated the good combinations of flavour, texture and portion size.

The fill line for adding water to the packs is novel with a blue area from the bottom showing how much water is required. It is quite a subtle design feature that can be easy to miss and some form of internal indicator would be best but it still works.

STAFF'S TASTE TEST - "May not be for everyone, but this is my ideal breakfast, personally, I'd like to see a little more heat, but I appreciate not everyone wants a spicy start to the morning, filling and full of flavour, hydrated well"
