Carb Smart Harissa-Honey Glazed Tofu with Lemony Bulgur We had to get creative with this one. The HelloFresh plate looked beautiful but a little… petite for two grown adults who didn’t snack properly that afternoon. So we tossed it all over a bed of lettuce to make it a full meal—and honestly, it worked. The…

Recipe link No modifications. No complaints. Just pure, cozy satisfaction. We served this one exactly as written—gravy, onions, creamy mash, roasted broccoli, juicy steak patties—and every bite landed. Baby loved the potatoes, the broccoli, and especially the meat. And get this: she had watermelon and peanut butter before dinner (classic toddler timing) and she just…

Recipe link Some HelloFresh meals require a bit of baby-fication. This one? Barely needed a thing. My husband’s the one who cooks around here (bless), and even he was surprised by how little we had to tweak to make this one work for our tiny dinner companion. The only change? He added a splash of…

Recipe link This one came with salad, creamy hummus dressing, and enough bold flavour to make you question whether this might finally be the HelloFresh meal she finishes in one sitting. Spoiler: it wasn’t. She started strong—loved the meat and tomatoes, was suspiciously enthusiastic about the olives (I expected a dramatic spit-take, but nope, she…

🧄🍗 https://www.hellofresh.ca/recipes/carb-smart-zesty-garlic-chicken-thighs-661cafea5c9ad41013c053ed This one was a bit of a gamble. We served Roslyn the tomatoes, couscous, and chopped-up chicken, but the only clear winner? The tomatoes. She was not here for the couscous life, and the chicken got a very diplomatic “meh.” But to be fair, it had been a one-nap kind of day, and…

Recipe Link. We thought this one was going to be an easy win: corn, tomatoes, guac, rice—what could go wrong? Answer: the shallots. The aggressively spicy shallots. We served her everything except the onions and spinach, but the flavor from those onions crept into the salsa and made the whole thing a bit too intense…

HelloFresh Recipe: Carb Smart Pork and Stone Fruit Salad Okay so we’re calling this one a salad—but baby didn’t see a single leaf. Here’s how we made it baby-friendly for our almost-1-year-old: She devoured the cheese, crushed the pork, and showed moderate enthusiasm for the peach (which shocked us because this girl usually treats fruit…

Recipe Link We made the Salisbury Steaks with Onion Gravy and guess what?She ate the whole thing.Gravy, onions, broccoli, steak, mashed potatoes — the works. We shaped the patties into six baby-friendly portions instead of four and skipped a bit of the butter, but otherwise? She was in it. And the mashed potatoes?She absolutely demolished…

Recipe link We made the tofu without the sweet chili heat sauce and served it up with hope.She gave it a fair try… and then passed.Cabbage? Hard no.Tofu? Surprisingly not her thing that night.The tortilla shell? That was the highlight. Soft carbs for the win. Luckily, Grandma and Grandpa had sent us home with leftover…
