Dinner diaries: my go-to meal ideas

There's nothing quite like the thought of a tasty homecooked meal to end a busy day. I like to be as productive as possible during the work day, and running

an online magazine

means constantly

searching for inspiration

,

new trends

and

creating connections

with other like-minded small businesses. Although my schedule is non-stop and

I've been travelling a lot lately

, I make an effort to prioritise my time off each evening when I can. It's important for me to step away from my laptop and make a delicious meal to enjoy with

my family

. After a long day, I know how easy it is to opt for a quick take-away or ready-cooked meal, I get you! But ready-made meals will never leave you as satisfied or inspired as a dinner you make for yourself. Get in the kitchen and treat cooking as a fun experience, away from the everyday stresses of work and admin, and your taste buds will thank you for it.

To get you started, I thought I’d share a handful of my favourite dinner picks from Khoollect. These recipes are easy, delicious and fun to make with family and friends. Prepare to be tempted!
