Simple Dinners Every Day by Nicole Maguire

Simple Dinners
Every Day

Dinner just got even easier.

My brand new cookbook is here to help you stress less at 5 pm. Packed with fast, flexible, budget-friendly, easy, family-friendly dinners made with ingredients you can actually find at the supermarket, this is the book that proves simple food doesn’t mean boring food.

I wrote this book to keep things real – because even with the best intentions, some weeks just feel relentless. Simple Dinners Every Day is full of recipes that make dinner doable again. Whether you're exhausted, uninspired, or just can’t deal with the fridge tonight, this book has your back – with meals that work for real families, on real budgets, with real appetites!

Dinner just got even easier.

  • 100+ recipes made with supermarket ingredients
  • One-pan recipes and fakeaways with minimal washing up
  • Freezer-friendly meals to stock your stash
  • Make-ahead and meal prep ideas to reduce midweek chaos
  • Leftover tips so nothing goes to waste

I wrote this book because dinner shouldn’t feel like a second full-time job.

If you’re drowning in mental load, sick of wondering what’s for dinner, and desperate for meals that just work – without needing a culinary degree or a trip to five different shops – this book is for you.

It’s not just about what we cook. It’s about how we cook – with less stress, more confidence, and systems that support real life. Whether you’re planning ahead, feeding picky eaters, or standing in front of the fridge at 5 pm with no plan, Simple Dinners Every Day gives you the tools to make dinner doable again.

And here’s the bit we all need to admit – we’ve all bought cookbooks we like, but barely cook from. This isn’t one of those books. These are recipes you’ll actually want to make. The kind of dinners that become part of your weekly rhythm. Nothing fussy, nothing wasteful – just flavour-packed meals that work, again and again.

Get-ahead Sunday – now a whole chapter

You asked – I delivered.

Get-ahead Sunday has been one of the most-loved parts of my online content, and it now has an entire chapter in this book.

Whether you prep on Sunday (or any day that works), this chapter will help you stock the fridge, fill the freezer, and get a head start on the week – without spending your whole weekend in the kitchen. It’s the ultimate time-saver, and it’s designed to work with real life.

Thanks for making space on your shelf – and in your weeknight routine – for my book. May your dinners be fast, your ingredients be on hand, and your sink stay (mostly) clean.
