HelloFresh, the world’s leading recipe box company, launches in Ireland to make dinners across the country more varied, delicious and less stressful. Research found that over 50% of Irish people stress over what to cook each day, while also identifying the trek to the supermarket as another key mealtime hassle. In availing of the HelloFresh service, customers can easily select a diverse array of recipes each week and skip the supermarket queues by having the pre-portioned, locally sourced ingredients delivered straight to their door.
The research, conducted by HelloFresh, uncovered that 65% of Irish people want more variety in their regular dinner rotation. With this in mind, the company’s Irish culinary team has created a varied menu tailored to the Irish palate, including twists on some of the country’s favourite meals. Delicious meal options include: Mexican-inspired Beef Rigatoni, Spicy Prawn Red Thai Curry and Homemade Falafel Pitas.
