Lyo offer 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: 

Freeze-dried breakfasts offer more than just oatmeal. We’re well aware that many of you crave a savory dish to start your day off on the right foot. This is why we created a unique version of the well-known scrambled eggs - a dish that has been enjoyed by people for centuries, dating back to Roman times! Enriched with some valuable ingredients including red beans, sheep milk cheese and corn, Mexican Style Scrambled Eggs are definitely worth waking up for and will give you extra energy for a long day in the outdoors. Now you can forget about carrying delicate eggs in your backpack and still enjoy your favorite type of breakfast.

PREPARATION

  1. Tear off at the notch above the zipper
  2. Remove oxygen absorber
  3. Add 310 ml of hot, boiled water - fill line № 2 (see inside)
  4. Stir thoroughly
  5. Close the zipper and leave for 9 minutes
  6. Tear off at the notch below the zipper, stir again & enjoy

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"
