Comfy chair? Check. Remote control? Check. Indulgent and simply delicious food? Coming right up …
Whether you’re in the mood for a new TV series to binge or a classic you haven’t seen in ages, these recommendations will keep your eyes glued to that screen and, with perfectly paired HelloFresh recipes, the ultimate night in couldn’t be easier!
TV Series
After Life
If you like: Dark comedy
After Life seamlessly goes from dark comedy to tear-jerking drama in a matter of minutes. It follows a man (Ricky Gervais) who decides to do and say whatever he wants following his wife’s death – this ends up being trickier than he envisioned. Once you start with After Life, you won’t be able to stop. You’ll easily knock it over on a weekend, as there’s only two short seasons.
While watching the show, munch on these Korean Beef Tacos to see you through.
Modern Family
If you like: Feel-good family comedy
If you haven’t seen Modern Family, you should! And if you have, you won’t have to think twice about a Modern Family marathon. This mockumentary style sitcom gives a hilariously real and relatable insight into how unique each family is, with lots of important lessons on family values along the way.
Cook up our Mexican Crumbed Chicken Burger with Baked Fries & Lemon Mayo , a firm family favourite, and settle in and pass the time.
Game of Thrones
If you like: Action
You know a show is going to be a good binge watch when you’re tearing your hair out waiting for new episodes. The epic fantasy story line came to a close in 2019, so if you’re yet to start or just never quite finished, you can now stream every episode for the ultimate binge-fest.
Inspired by Jon Snow, give these ~ cool ~ vegan ice creams a try!
Killing Eve
If you like: Crime drama
Killing Eve is an action-packed spy thriller that successfully intertwines suspense and humour as it follows the protagonist (Sandra Oh) in her cat and mouse chase with an elusive and mysterious assassin, Villanelle. You may recognise Oh from her stint on Grey’s Anatomy (another binge-worthy series!), but her performance in Killing Eve is so captivating it won her a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a drama series.
Nachos are the best kind of food for any TV marathon. These Cheesy Beef Nachos require zero fuss assemblage and will be on the plate in a flash.
Movie
Wonder
If you like: Meaningful messages
This is a touching, feel-good family movie with positive messages throughout. It tells a story of acceptance, kindness and appreciating people for who they are.
We figured something so heart-warming deserves a feel-good dish and what’s more comforting than a bowl of delicious pasta? Our Cheat’s Italian Pork & Veggie Bolognese is just the thing.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
If you like: A family favourite
One for a family film night, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a classic that appeals to every member of the family. Don’t make the mistake of watching Tim Burton’s newer version of the film first. While this film was released in 1971, it captures Roald Dahl’s quirky book much better than the newer film.
The movie calls for one thing and one thing only … chocolate, of course! Try our simple chocolate cake recipe for the perfect Sunday afternoon treat.
Grease
If you like: A timeless cult classic
A perfect rainy day film, this quintessential 80’s American musical romantic comedy can be watched and sung along to countless times.
It’s only right, then, that we match this film with an all-American recipe, our American Spiced Pork Steaks with Roast Veggies.
We hope you enjoy these recipe recommendations. We promise they taste even better sitting on the couch!

Important Information
If you have read all or any part of our email, website, or communication then you need to know that this is factual information and general advice only. This means it does not consider any person’s particular financial objectives, financial situation, or financial needs. If you are an investor, you should consult a licensed adviser before acting on any information to fully understand the benefits and risk associated with the product. This is your call but that is what you should do.
You may be surprised to learn that RAIZ Invest Australia Limited (ABN 26 604 402 815) (Raiz), an authorised representative AFSL 434776 prepared this information.
We are not allowed, and have not prepared this information to offer financial product advice or a recommendation in relation to any investments or securities. If we did give you personal advice, which we did not, then the use of the Raiz App would be a lot more expensive than the current pricing – sorry but true. You therefore should not rely on this information to make investment decisions, because it was not about you for once, and unfortunately, we cannot advise you on who or what you can rely on – again sorry.
A Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) for Raiz Invest and/or Raiz Invest Super is available on the Raiz Invest website and App. A person must read and consider the PDS before deciding whether, or not, to acquire and/or continue to hold interests in the financial product. We know and ASIC research shows that you probably won’t, but we want you to, and we encourage you to read the PDS so you know exactly what the product does, its risks and costs. If you don’t read the PDS, it’s a bit like flying blind. Probably not a good idea.
The risks and fees for investing are fully set out in the PDS and include the risks that would ordinarily apply to investing. You should note, as illustrated by the global financial crisis of 2008, that sometimes not even professionals in the financial services sector understand the ordinary risks of investing – because by their nature many risks are unknown – but you still need to give it a go and try to understand the risks set out in the PDS.
Any returns shown or implied are not forecasts and are not reliable guides or predictors of future performance. Those of you who cannot afford financial advice may be considering ignoring this statement, but please don’t, it is so true.
Under no circumstance is the information to be used by, or presented to, a person for the purposes of deciding about investing in Raiz Invest or Raiz Invest Super.
This information may be based on assumptions or market conditions which change without notice and have not been independently verified. Basically, this says nothing stays the same for long in financial markets (or even in life for that matter) and we are sorry. We try, but we can’t promise that the information is accurate, or stays accurate.
Any opinions or information expressed are subject to change without notice; that’s just the way we roll.
