Hanukkah is the 18th and Christmas is next week. The last thing you should have to worry about is what’s for dinner between now and then.
Hanukkah starts tomorrow, December 18th. Christmas is next week. It’s safe to say we’re a little busy. Obviously, we love the holidays and almost everything that comes with them. But that doesn’t mean we aren’t just absolutely slammed with merry-making duties. The countdown is on and that means that it’s super speed to shop, wrap, write, bake, clean, and 10 things we’re probably forgetting. We just don’t have time to answer the daily “what’s for dinner?” question. So this is absolutely when we look to the best meals from HelloFresh even more than we usually do!

It’s safe to say that our holidays are a lot easier with HelloFresh (and some extra coffee!).
Organic Chicken & Maple Carrot Power Bowls with Tumeric-Toasted Couscous & Lemony Hummus
It's impossible not to crave the maple syrup harissa-seasoned carrots in this dish! Served bowl-style (hello, easy dishwasher loading!), those carrots are served up with turmeric-seasoned couscous, crunchy kale chips flavored with garlic, creamy hummus, and topped with dried cranberries and walnuts. We're seriously drooling just thinking about it.
BBQ Cheddar Burgers with Chipotle Mayo & Potato Wedges
Who'd complain about Burger Night? These BBQ Cheddar Burgers start with an onion-studded seasoned burger patty, topped with melty cheddar, BBQ-spiked onions, and chipotle mayo, then wrapped in toasty buns. Add oven-fresh fries on the side (of course) and you have an extra hand to track packages while you wait.
Smoky Barramundi with Brown Butter + Mashed Potatoes & Roasted Broccoli
Restaurant style, right at home! Paprika-rubbed barramundi fillets drizzled with a lemon and scallion brown butter sauce. It's served with roasted broccoli and sour cream mashed potatoes and ready in 35 minutes. Seriously? Seriously.
Pork Meatloaf Parm Over Spaghetti Marinara
This dish is pure amore. Chef-created individual pork meatloaf layered with classic red sauce and a cheesy panko topping. With a crispy-melty baked crust and a side of spaghetti marinara, this updated version of an old fave is a new fave for us.
One-Pan Cheesy Black Bean Tacos
We don't even care what follows the words "one-pan"; we're in. In this case, though, add hearty black beans, green peppers, two kinds of cheese, red pepper crema, and a 15 minute prep time, and we're there for it.
Crispy Chickpea & Kale Salad with Cucumber, Pickled Shallot & Lemony Tahini Dressing Visit
Kale is still one of the best superfoods out there, so you can feel great about this salad. Massaged kale (so it's not too chewy) is coated in a tahini-garlic-lemon-yogurt dressing, then tossed with cucumbers and pickled shallots. Topped with seasoned extra-crispy chickpeas, you don't even have to be a salad person to love it!
Bavette Steak & Sherry Shallot Sauce with Garlic Parmesan Potato Clusters & Mixed Greens
Made it to the end of the week? Time for a reward, especially during the holiday week! In 40 minutes, we're cooking up bavette steaks drizzled in a rich pan sherry shallot sauce with cheesy garlic potatoes and fresh greens. It's Winter Vacation-worthy for sure!
