TESCO has launched its brand-new Festive Meal Deal range, featuring a mix of returning favourites and exciting new creations.
This year’s line-up features returning favourites and new creations inspired by festive flavours from around the world.
The supermarket’s 2025 range brings together classic Christmas flavours and creative new twists, offering something for everyone – from meat lovers to vegan and gluten-free diners.
Prices start at £3.00, with a festive Meal Deal available for £3.85 with a Clubcard or £4.25 without the Clubcard.
Shoppers can also opt for the Premium Meal Deal, which includes a premium main plus a side and drink from £5.50 with a Clubcard (£6 without).
The Tesco Honey Ham, Red Leicester and Festive Chutney Sandwich layers honey roast ham and tangy Red Leicester with spiced pear and apple chutney, lettuce and mayonnaise on cranberry and sage bread.
A festive classic, the Tesco Turkey and Trimmings Sandwich brings together all the flavours of a traditional Christmas dinner — turkey, stuffing, bacon, sausages, cranberry sauce and mayonnaise — neatly packed between two slices.
For a twist on tradition, the Tesco Currywurst Sausage Sub is inspired by the flavours of German Christmas markets, featuring herby sausages topped with balsamic onions and a rich curry ketchup.
Plant-based shoppers can tuck into the Tesco Plant Chef Festive Feast Wrap, packed with smoky La Vie vegan bacon, roasted carrots and parsnips, sage and onion stuffing, sweet cranberries and vegan gravy mayonnaise.
Those looking for a gluten-free option can grab the Tesco Free From Festive Chicken and Trimmings Sandwich, made with gluten-free seeded bread but still delivering all the festive flavours.
The Tesco Finest Premium Meal Deal takes lunchtime indulgence up a notch.
According to The Express, the standout item — Finest Chicken, Bacon and Trimmings Yorkshire Pudding Wrap packs in tender chicken, pork, sage and onion stuffing, smoked maple bacon, roasted veg, cranberry red cabbage and a drizzle of gravy mayonnaise.
Other highlights from the range include the Tesco Finest Festive Chicken & Bacon Wrap, served with a sage and black pepper gravy mayonnaise dip, and the Tesco Finest Brie and Bacon Brioche Bagel, filled with smooth Brie, applewood smoked maple-cured bacon, spiced cranberry relish and fresh rocket.
The Tesco Finest Turkey BLT Sandwich offers a deli-inspired twist with turkey, maple bacon, Emmental gherkin mayonnaise, lettuce and tomato on rye bread.
Tesco is also spreading goodwill through its partnership with Coca-Cola Europacific Partners.
For every Tesco Festive Meal Deal bought with a Coca-Cola drink, 20p will be donated to FareShare, helping to provide meals for people and communities in need across the UK.
Last year, Tesco’s festive meal deal launched in October and featured a mix of eight new and returning favourites.
Highlights included the Christmas Cracking Currywurst Sub, Ho-Ho-Hog Wrap and Plant Chef Christmas Veg Fest Wrap, alongside the ever-popular Turkey & Trimmings Sandwich.
Gluten-free shoppers could pick up the Festive Chicken & Trimmings Sandwich, while premium choices such as the Tesco Finest Festive Chicken & Bacon Wrap with gravy mayonnaise dip, the Festive Chicken, Bacon & Stuffing Mayo Baguette and the Finest Turkey BLT added a touch of indulgence.
How to save on your supermarket shop
THERE are plenty of ways to save on your grocery shop.
You can look out for yellow or red stickers on products, which show when they’ve been reduced.
If the food is fresh, you’ll have to eat it quickly or freeze it for another time.
Making a list should also save you money, as you’ll be less likely to make any rash purchases when you get to the supermarket.
Going own brand can be one easy way to save hundreds of pounds a year on your food bills too.
This means ditching “finest” or “luxury” products and instead going for “own” or value” type of lines.
Plenty of supermarkets run wonky veg and fruit schemes where you can get cheap prices if they’re misshapen or imperfect.
For example, Lidl runs its Waste Not scheme, offering boxes of 5kg of fruit and vegetables for just £1.50.
If you’re on a low income and a parent, you may be able to get up to £442 a year in Healthy Start vouchers to use at the supermarket too.
Plus, many councils offer supermarket vouchers as part of the Household Support Fund.
