Dinner isn’t just about cooking – it’s the planning, the shopping, the constant juggle of time, budgets and working out who’s actually home to eat. In Home for Dinner, Julie Goodwin takes on the real challenge of mealtimes.
This is more than a collection of recipes. It’s a way to set your kitchen up so it works for you, like your own ready-meal section, stocked with dishes that are better (and cheaper) than takeaway – think Spanish Chicken Tray Bake on a busy Monday, Burning Noodles with Prawns in half an hour, build-your-own burger night, or a Veggie Bolognese ready to go when plans change.
Inside you’ll find:
Budget-friendly and family-tested recipes
Prep-ahead, cook-ahead and freezer-friendly meals
Smart planning strategies to reduce stress and waste
Flexible dishes that adapt to your household and schedule
Easy but impressive options for special occasions – including desserts
Plus all the sides, sauces and spices to stretch meals a little further and make every dinnertime a pleasure
Whether you’re cooking for one, feeding a crowd or managing something in between, Home for Dinner will help you simplify the process and make space for what matters most: coming together at the end of the day.
