Tip
Add your child’s favourite cheeses, vegetable crudités, bread and cold cuts here to dip in the pâté and make a personalised lunchbox. Add a frozen bottle of water or juice to the lunchbox. It will keep everything cool as it defrosts through the morning. The pâté will keep in the fridge, covered, for up to 4 days.
