HelloFresh Helps Bring Variety Back to Mealtimes
HelloFresh provides pre-portioned ingredients and easy-to-follow recipes right to your doorstep. With a rotating menu of global-inspired dishes, you can explore different flavours and cuisines without the hassle of meal planning and grocery shopping. Hooray to that!
Here’s how HelloFresh makes cooking enjoyable again:
Discover New Flavours & Cuisines
Do your little darlings mutter, “not this again” under their breath when you place a steaming hot plate of food in front of them? It’s so easy to get stuck in the rut of cooking the same meals on repeat because a) it’s quick to throw together and b) you know that your kids will eat it. But favourite foods can be like favourite songs—one minute you’re singing your heart out whenever you hear it, then the radio station overplays it and it seems like it is on everywhere you go, and before you know it you can’t stand it anymore! Keep kids interested in food by offering them a variety of flavours and fresh foods.

HelloFresh offers a diverse menu with dishes inspired by Italian, Mexican, Asian, Mediterranean, and more. You might find yourself whipping up a creamy Tuscan chicken, a spicy Korean beef bowl, or a tangy Thai curry—all without having to hunt for ingredients you’ve never heard of at the specialty store. Each meal you select arrives neatly packaged and individually numbered with a corresponding recipe card and everything you need to cook up a storm in next to no time! No meal planning (other than selecting from a menu) and no shopping!
No More Meal Planning Stress
One of the biggest hurdles to cooking at home is deciding what to make. HelloFresh removes this stress by giving you an extensive menu to select from with options like classic dishes, premium recipes, gastro-pub style meals and street food recipes. Whether you’re vegetarian, a meat lover, or looking for calorie-smart options, there’s something for everyone. Plus, you can see how much time each meal will take to make, so you can customise your choices to how much time you are willing to devote to cooking, and there ain’t no shame in choosing quick and easy!

Easy, Step-by-Step Recipes
If you’ve started to regard cooking as more frustrating than fun, you’re in good company! After a busy day working, or taking care of children, deciding what to prepare for dinner can feel draining. With HelloFresh you’ve already made the choices on what you’ll eat each day, so you’ve already skipped that hurdle!
Another great thing about HelloFresh is the detailed, illustrated recipe cards that guide you through the process step-by-step. This makes it easy for you to pass the reins over to another capable family member for the evening. Even unenthused partners or inexperienced teens or tweens will have no problem following along and creating a delicious family dinner. Who knows, they might just enjoy it and make it a regular thing!

Fresh Ingredients, Less Waste
Ever bought a whole bunch of fresh herbs for a recipe, only to let most of it wilt in the fridge before you got a chance to use it again? With HelloFresh, you get exactly what you need—no more ending up with enough leftover rice or pasta to feed a small army, no excess groceries, and no money wasted on food that ends up in the bin! Everything is measured out and ready to go.
Plus, their ingredients are sourced for freshness, meaning you’re cooking with high-quality produce, meats, and seasonings.
Encourage Kids to Explore New Flavors with Hello Fresh
One of the biggest challenges for parents is getting kids to eat a variety of foods, especially when you have a picky eater. HelloFresh makes it easy to introduce children to different cuisines, fresh ingredients, and unique flavours in a relaxed home atmosphere—bypassing the stress and cost of taking them out to eat! Instead of relying on the same kid-friendly meals (yes, we are looking at you chicken nuggets), parents can expose their little ones to more adventurous dishes like mild curries, Mediterranean-inspired pastas, or Asian stir-fries—all without having to spend hours on food preparation.

Involving your kids in food preparation can also encourage them to be more adventurous eaters. Studies show that children who help prepare meals are more likely to try new foods. Since HelloFresh includes pre-portioned ingredients and simple step-by-step instructions, with clear and colourful images, it’s easy to involve kids—whether it’s washing veggies, mixing sauces, or assembling their own tacos. Over time, this exposure to a variety of flavours helps expand their palate and fosters a lifelong appreciation for fresh, nutritious foods.
Rediscover the Joy of Family Mealtimes
If you’ve lost your mojo in the kitchen, HelloFresh is the perfect way to rediscover it. With exciting new flavours, simple recipes, and fresh ingredients delivered to your door, you can enjoy the process of making and eating delicious, home-cooked meals without the usual stress and planning that cooking for your family entails.
So, if you’re ready to shake up your meal routine, and have a go at recreating some of your favourite international dishes at home, why not give HelloFresh a try? Whether you’re looking to spice up weeknight dinners, try new cuisines, or simply streamline midweek mealtimes, HelloFresh can help you to escape the monotony of eating the same meals on repeat, and dial up the fun of cooking with new flavours.
