Want the comfort of homestyle meals without the guesswork? This pack includes 5 petite (≈300 g) meals chosen to suit your preferences and dietary needs. We’ll curate from our current menu and freezer range to build a balanced, tasty selection—so you don’t have to sift through every item. Great for: gluten-free, no red meat, onion/garlic-free, dairy-free, low-salt, soft foods, or “chef’s choice” with a few exclusions. How it works At checkout, tell us your dietary needs and any “no-go” ingredients. We’ll select a mix of mains (and sides where relevant) that fit your brief. Each meal is clearly labelled with name, date and key dietary notes. We can accommodate most simple and moderate combinations (e.g., GF + no onion/garlic). We may contact you if your brief is complex or very restricted to confirm options or suggest a different pack size. While we take great care, our kitchen handles allergens; cross-contact risk cannot be completely eliminated.

Tender chicken breast pieces in a light, creamy herb sauce with broccoli, cauliflower and peas. This meal is gluten free, onion and garlic free, and designed to be gentle on the tummy while still being high in protein and packed with vegetables.

No idea why this is actually called Mongolian Lamb - I think it is one of those Aussie-Chinese inventions brought to us by the wonderful introduction of Chinese cooking to our nation by so many Chinese takeaways all over the country. Marinated with a touch of chilli and five spice powder it has a light kick to it, but certainly one I never remember having an issue with as it was most definitely my favourite dish to order from our local Harmony Inn when I was a kid.

I am not sure what it is about this weather cooling down but I am craving comforting gravy smothered foods! And this is one that I used to love making when I first moved out of home. Granted - I had no idea what I was doing then then! I had no idea how to cook meat or temper a sauce. But somehow it still turned out great and was one I would save for when we had guests over. I am not sure why it has taken me so long to think of popping it on the menu?? Served with Roast baby Chat potatoes and steamed seasonal veg.

Sweden, and even Ikea is just too far to go to when I want to fill my craving for these juicy pork and beef mince meatballs and creamy sauce! Luckily, I have a homemade version that tastes just like it (but fresher!) Comes with a side of Peas and Mashed potato. If you have some cranberry sauce or Lingonberry jam - I recommend adding a spoonful of that on the side too!

This Tuscan vegetable frittata combines cherry tomatoes, chargrilled capsicum, spinach and feta with a cheesy egg custard. Baked in mini loaves until it is golden and delicious. It makes a great lighter meal option for dinner, lunch or even breakfast!

This is my all-time favourite dessert. I don't have much of a sweet tooth, but when I am craving something sweet - it is this! Rich, dense date slice, then covered in our butterscotch sauce. Oh My! Serve with custard, whipped cream or my favourite - vanilla bean ice-cream!

We take Chocolate Mousse and up it a little by making it a delicious frozen desert, called Semifreddo which in Italian means 'half-cold' or ‘half-frozen'. Because of the eggs in the recipe, it never really hardens up like ice would when you freeze it, so it stays as a silky creamy decadent dessert! Try it - we think you will love it too!

When I had my first job, it was next door to a Vietnamese bakery that sold little round take away containers full of custardy creamy set rice pudding topped with cinnamon. As soon as the weather started to turn cold, I used to look forward to getting one of these. popping it in the microwave until it was warmed through and then devouring it to warm up! This dish takes me right back there!

When I lived in Italy I learned a few things, one was that this is not how Italians make Bolognese! The other was that food slowly and lovingly cooked tastes a million times better. This is our 24 hour slow cooked Bolognese Sauce. Great on pasta, zoodles, roast potatoes, and even in a toastie!

The Open Sauce Kitchen Chicken and Leek pie features lovely free-range chicken thighs, poached in our homemade chicken broth, then combined with buttery leek, thyme, creamy gravy and a dash of seeded mustard to give it some zing. These 6-inch pies are filling on their own, but you can make more of a meal of it when you have it with the classic sides of mash and peas.

A fresh, light take on our weekly quiche — this crustless spring vegetable quiche is packed with leek, broccolini, peas, asparagus, and herbs in a soft, savoury egg custard. Perfect warm or chilled, it makes an easy, gluten-free lunch or light dinner. It also happens to be Keto, gluten free and all round delish!

As I type this it occurs to me how many recipes we have that use mushrooms. As a child I was a devout mushroom hater. It was only later in life that I have slowly (very slowly!) added them into meals that I eat regularly. One way is in a creamy sauce like in a stroganoff, or like this in a rich gravy. This is simple, comfort in a bowl.

This is a relatively simple curry that gives more of a flavour bomb than you would expect! Healthy and filling because of the chickpeas, spicy from the paprika, cumin and then with the addition of cayenne pepper for a bit of a kick. Definitely needs the yoghurt and a squeeze of lime juice to round it out. Served on a bed of rice to make it a full meal.

Comfort Food Central! This English classic has a deeply savoury beef mince filling smothered in gravy topped with creamy mashed potato, baked until golden. One of the best cosy foods to make with ground beef!

Teriyaki Chicken as we had it in Japan is amazing, light, not too sweet and not too sticky, and served on a bed of sushi rice! It was great - but this is not it! This is a dish that pays homage to the Teriyaki chicken and rice I used to love getting in the food court under Sydney Westfields/Myers at a place called Hokka Hokka. it was not traditional. It was sticky! It was sweet! The rice came with peas, corn and carrot mixed through - which actually was need with that sweet sauce! And of course, I always asked for extra sauce!!
