Anyone else love these? I’ve not long discovered then and am loving the opportunity to try new meals I’d have never considered before (some I’ve never heard of). I was stuck in a rut cooking the same meals on repeat, this have changed that. What are your faves?

We love them too. I just use whatever meat & veg we have in. Our faves are louisiana linguine, rendang, nyona & nasi goreng.
So quick & easy to make, plus we get to try loads of new things!
I wish they sold big pots of the garlic paste & chicken stock, would definitely buy them to use in other recipes.

I love these! Our favourites are katsu curry and Louisiana linguini! My only (minor) complaint with them is they’ve barely brought out anything new in the past 18 months or so - it’s all been vegetarian versions of existing recipes.

You can buy garlic puree/paste from most supermarkets. I use it to save washing the crusher!

OP, are you sure you don’t work for them 😂😂😂😂

Summersun2020 · 23/05/2021 21:55

@EverythingRuined 😆 definitely not, just excited to escape the endless cycle of chilli con carne/spag bol/sausage and mash that I’d ended up in

Far too salty for me which is annoying as I love some of the underlying flavours. Had a free box of 4 sets and a cheap follow up offer and all 8 were over salty.

Love them all really, and they got us out of a rut in lockdown.
At first I would religiously get the exact ingredients but now confident to switch in what I've got in the fridge. Genuinely love them all.
We love them.

Love the Soy & Honey Salmon, DD1 is addicted to the Dan Dan Noodles.

We hated some of the ones people on here love. Some of the pots to add flavouring to mash are awful, so I don't use those. And some of the pots are salty so I never add salt when cooking. Having said that, there are enough dishes we really like and the system works well for us.
