We all have those days where we feel too unmotivated or tired to cook something to eat but would love comforting meals within minutes. That’s where ready-to-eat meals come in. They are already pre-cooked, so all you need to do is microwave them, and you are good to go. From Mac & Cheese to Claypot Rice, here are three brands with a new range of ready-to-eat products that will satisfy your cravings.
Little Farms
Little Farms, an all-natural and organic grocer, has introduced its version of ready-to-heat meals with 12 Asian and Western dishes. Using home-style recipes, they have been created using all-natural and ethically-sourced ingredients with zero preservatives. These dishes are all packaged in a home-compostable tray with biodegradable film.
Indulge in dishes like Beef Lasagne ($14.98), Mac & Cheese ($10.98), Shepherd’s Pie ($14.98), and for those craving something with Asian flavours, check out the aromatic Butter Chicken ($14.98), Vegetable Korma ($13.98), or Tadka Dai ($13.98).
Purchase them here or at any Little Farms shops in Singapore.
7-Eleven
7-Eleven has partnered with 11 local Singaporean brands like Ghim Moh Market, Old Chang Kee, and Beach Road Noodle to introduce “Dabao Flavours of Singapore” where you can enjoy 10 Singaporean delights.

TSK Foods
Tan Seng Kee Foods (TSK Foods), a fresh noodle manufacturer that has been in business in Singapore for over 80 years, has curated the Kang Kang Microwavable Noodle Boxes.

Char Kway Teow features fresh sambal chilli, fried shallots, and fried whitebait, along with all-important wok hei flavour; Pad Thai is a vegan spicy noodle dish with crushed crispy peanuts and chilli flakes; and Hokkaido Ramen has whole scallops, bonier flakes, and sesame seeds topped with a teriyaki-inspired sauce.
