The GSN Signature Meals range has been expanded by the brand this month to address increasing consumer demand for protein-packed food varieties that don't skimp on convenience or flavor.

The meal range now features the [Firecracker Salmon & Jasmine Rice](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fish-curry) and Sri Lankan Inspired Pork Curry, which come in with 30.2-grams and 43.1-grams of protein, respectively. The [protein-packed meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/myprotein-and-greencore) are priced at £6.99 each and prioritize high-quality flavors that are takeout-inspired to offer consumers a [fakeaway experience](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gsn-firecracker-chicken) anytime of day.

A spokesperson commented on the new additions to the GSN Signature Meals range saying, "Whilst GSN’s trail-blazing Pots of Gold meals are geared at providing on-the-go, protein-rich meal solutions for hectic, always on-the-move lifestyles; the Signature Range are hassle-free recipes that stand by the same high protein/low-sugar commitments, whilst prioritising those all-important kick-back times of the day; recognising that mind & body needs rest and recuperation to meet its wider peak physicality commitments.”
