Meals for 8

Our delicious and easy meals for 8 people are a quick way to cater for a big family, or any sort of get together where you want a break from cooking for once. Just pop them in the microwave or oven (make sure to check each product to see how it’s prepared!) from frozen, and voila - dinner for 8 in a matter of minutes!

Despite what meal preferences you and your family/guests have, we have many different cheap meals for 8 that can cater to different tastes. For instance, you can’t go far wrong with an exquisite Lasagne al Forno for 8 (just ask Garfield!), or if you needed a vegetarian meal alternative then don’t miss our Roasted Vegetable Lasagne! We also have some hearty potato-topped pies, like our Grand Cottage Pie and classic Fish Pie for 8, which are mouthwatering dinners for eight that are perfect paired with some steamed veg - and perhaps a glass of wine!

If you’re seeking a more healthy option, consider the Beef Bourguignon and Lamb Tagine. They are both in our Love Eating Well category, meaning they clock in at under a third of your daily R.I. for calories, fat, saturated fat, sugar and salt. We’d recommend having some sides to bulk these out, however; we’d suggest some mash with the beef and some rice or cous cous for the tagine, or if neither of these inspire you then feel free to take a look at the rest of our side dishes to turn any of our easy meals for 8 people into a true feast.

All these dinners for eight will fit with ease in a regular sized freezer drawer, so if the picks on this page appeal then you don’t need to worry about cramming them into a space too tight! If you did want to tone it back with a bit less food for an occasion, or you wanted a bit more variety with what you can offer guests (or fussy family members!) then make sure to check out our meals for 1, meals for 2 and meals for 4 to see if anything takes your fancy.
