Our Healthy Eating Mission
Our experienced nutritionists and chefs put your bespoke needs first. We are proud to provide sound nutritional knowledge and food preparation experience, coupled with a high level of quality customer service to each of our clients. We have a commitment to health and wellness. Our goal is to enable you to eat healthily, reach your goals, continue to enjoy takeaways and meal prep and help support your busy lifestyle and other priorities. We are your 'food angels' if you will...there when you need us.
What We Do
We are a local North East Food Business providing pre-ordered, ready to heat, chilled meals for a variety of client needs:
- Healthy Takeaway 'fakeaway' meals
- Meal Prep
- Mini meals for elderly
- Sunday Roasts for the whole family
- Special occasion food made to order
We are newly established in January 2022 and a small operation with health, quality and affordability at the heart of all we do.
Everything is made from scratch, high in protein, lower in fat, salt, sugar and high in flavour. Our meals support slimming plans like Slimming World and Weight Watchers as well as fitness aims for high protein and macro-focused athletic performance. We currently provide meals for the England Karate Squad and work with personal trainers to maximise performance.
We deliver to Whickham, Swalwell, Blaydon, Ryton and Rowlands Gill (approximately a 3/4-mile radius from Blaydon).
Ask us about further afield in the North East. We're happy to help. We regularly deliver to Bill Quay, Low Fell, Team Valley, Heaton and Tynemouth areas so timing your orders could help reduce delivery costs.
We are looking into wider distribution longer term - if you are interested - please message us for a quote. Minimum orders will apply to make it cost-effective for customers.

What's in The Name?
It's a constant question for us. How did the name Ginger Lily's come about? Well, it's a quirky story and a childhood dream of our founder Lynne Gough. Lynne has ginger hair (although some would say she is now more honey or strawberry blonde and grey!) and she loves all things ginger. As a qualified nutritionist, food teacher and cook, both fresh root ginger and ground ginger often find their way into recipes too! Hence the name 'Ginger'.
The name Lily is after Lynne's maternal Nana. Lily was the hostess with the mostest - she was the eldest of 8 siblings and Lynne remembers growing up surrounded by wholesome food cooked from scratch. Mealtimes were fun and a lot of the recipes Lynne enjoys today came from Lily's own family, passed down from generations.
This company, Ginger Lily's encompasses all that Lily was - the centre of a loving family, thoughtful and there for you when you needed her. Lynne hopes that the company continues to strive to support those in need, whether that be for time-saving meals or nutritional goals.
Latterly, Lynne had the difficult and upsetting task of supporting both her father and mother in law through end of life care, providing food tailored to their nutritional needs, including dysphagia, making IDDSI stage 4 pureed shaped food. It was an emotional and heart-wrenching time but it was a special time to be able to offer support and care at the most vulnerable time in their lives. John and Valerie Gough had the most amazing life and were inseparable – She was the Yin to his Yang – a great balance – hence the Ginger Lily’s Yin-Yang style logo – it’s all about partnership and balance here at Ginger Lily’s.
We care here at Ginger Lily's - no order is too small, and we really want to help you live the very best life you can! Get in touch and see how we can support you.
Love Lynne x
