Lazy Snack Plate (Girl Dinner Approved)

For the nights when dinner is really just a collection of things... but still deserves some protein.

Under 5 minMicrowaveBowlEnergy required: Barely any.

Some evenings you're not craving a proper meal—you just want to pick at a plate while watching TV or answering "one last email."

This is that dinner.

The difference? It actually fills you up.

Ingredients

  • 2-3 FROZN chicken patties
  • Avocado
  • Crackers or crispbread
  • Cucumber, tomatoes or whatever fresh veg is in the fridge
  • Greek yoghurt, hummus or your favourite dip

Optional

  • Pickles
  • Olives
  • Grapes or berries
  • Cheese
  • Nuts

Method

  1. 1
    Heat FROZN straight from frozen and slice if you prefer bite-sized pieces.
  2. 2
    Add everything to a plate—no rules, just arrange it however you like.
  3. 3
    3. Finish with your favourite dip. That's dinner sorted.

Why this works

Not every dinner needs to look like a recipe.

Sometimes the easiest meals are the ones you'll actually make.

By starting with FROZN, you've already got the hardest part covered. Everything else is just building a plate from whatever's already in your fridge.

Why you’ll make this again

  • Ready in under 5 minutes
  • No cooking beyond the microwave
  • Perfect for clearing out the fridge
  • Ideal when you don't feel like "making dinner"
  • Girl dinner... that actually keeps you full

Founder tip

This is probably the meal I make most often when I'm working late. I never buy ingredients specifically for it—I just raid the fridge and see what happens. It turns "there's nothing to eat" into "actually... this is pretty good."
