I really love this time of year. The days feel slower, routines are softer, and there’s a little more breathing room. It’s also the season where I want dinner to be simple, unfussy, and easy to pull together so I can stay present and enjoy it all. This collection is five relaxed, low-effort dinners I genuinely make during this in-between stretch – reliable meals that don’t require overthinking, but still feel generous, comforting, and worth sitting down for.
This Juicy Oven-baked Kebabs recipe is a quick, budget-friendly fakeaway that delivers bold flavour, and it’s easily cooked in the oven. It’s perfect for feeding a crowd or customising for fussy eaters, and the garlic yoghurt + sumac onion combo takes it over the top. Make it once and it’ll be on regular rotation.
Creamy pasta topped with chicken schnitzel is the ultimate pairing in this Crispy Chicken Schnitzel Alfredo recipe. It’s the ideal comforting family weeknight meal, but elegant enough to serve to guests.
This Quick Coconut Chicken Curry recipe is comforting and flavourful, perfect for cosy family dinners any night of the week. Tender chicken pieces are simmered in a rich, coconut-based curry sauce, before being topped with yoghurt and mango chutney. It is freezer-friendly and is delicious served with basmati rice and naan bread.
Crispy roasted potatoes make the perfect base for this loaded taco bowl, topped with spiced beef, guac, salsa and cheese. This Loaded Potato Taco Bowl recipe is budget-friendly, freezer-friendly, and a fun way to mix up taco night without adding extra effort.
