If you’re anything like us, you’re always after a little dinner inspiration, because ‘what’s for dinner?’ is a thought that plagues you from the second you wake up. To help you out, we’re sharing the recipes we’ve been making on repeat lately, whether you’re vegan, a meat-lover, or incredibly short on time. Consider these our go-tos that are simple enough to make on a weeknight or lazy Sunday, yet tasty enough to earn a spot in your regular rotation. Enjoy! 

Chicken and Mushroom Pie

“Over winter, I found myself gravitating towards comfort meals. @whatinthechef’s chicken and mushroom pie is a great recipe to follow when you want to use up the neglected mushrooms that have been sitting in the back of your fridge. Pie that sounds like cardboard and tastes like a warm hug.”– Vani, Partnerships Manager

Recipe Tin Eats Lasagne 

“I am a lasagne fiend, but Nagi’s recipe takes the cake. Yes, it takes a while to make, but I love nothing more than setting aside a Saturday afternoon to catch up on podcasts while I whip this up.” – Cait, Newsletter Strategist

Fried Fish Sandwich 

“A very good fish burger! Make it on a warm night and eat outside somewhere with a loved one! Bonus points if you make some chips.” – Naima, Head of Social

Korean Chicken and Cucumber Bowl

“I am once again having @laurakersev’s Korean chicken and cucumber bowl, and I LOVE IT! The recipe looks long and scary, but I promise you it’s actually really easy and 90% of it is just prep!” – Esther, Assistant Producer

Zucchini Pasta 

“On this week’s menu (hopefully) is this zucchini pasta. The recipe tells you not to add garlic, chilli, or lemon, but obviously ignore that. Top with some toasted panko crumbs on top for a bit of texture.”– Naima, Head of Social

Lentil bolognese

“I make this lentil bolognese every time I feel myself craving something meaty that isn’t meat. I have some tips: make sure you spend the time slowly browning the onion. It makes a huge difference! And, if you don’t have balsamic vinegar, a couple of teaspoons of sugar will do the trick.” – Eilish, Senior Producer

Chicken and leek pie

“This Chicken and leek pie is an easy mid-week win for me. It’s a good week when this chicken and leek pie recipe gets pulled out. The filo pastry is an easy cheat for pie-making!” – Lucy, Head of Podcasts

Baja chicken quesadillas

“I’ve been making these Baja chicken quesadillas for years. I first stumbled on it back when I’d just moved out of home and had absolutely no clue what I was doing in the kitchen – thank you, HelloFresh, for getting me through those early days. It’s stuck with me ever since: easy, healthy, delicious, the ultimate weeknight trifecta!

Esther, Assistant Producer

Peach, Burrata and Prosciutto Salad

“Ok, this is not exactly a dinner recipe, but I’ve been making this peach, burrata, and prosciutto salad on repeat lately. It looks like an absolute dream and somehow tastes even better – sweet, salty, creamy, and perfect for warm days when you want something effortless but impressive. It’s the perfect dish to bring to a spring or summer dinner party. – Lucy, Head of Podcasts
