Every family and friend circle has its weird or wonderful holiday traditions, from delicious dishes passed down through generations to random rituals repeated yearly for no reason other than it’s what is expected and part of what makes the holiday special.
Some of our special holiday traditions come from something silly or fun we saw on television and just couldn’t possibly ever forget. HelloFresh is celebrating the most classic of classic television Thanksgiving episodes and honoring the thirtieth anniversary of the series Friends while they are at it. Just in time for the Thanksgiving season, they will be offering Rachel Green’s Trifle meal kit, an infamous dish made famous by a fan-favorite Thanksgiving episode of the hit series.
The very limited-edition meal kit will include all the ingredients necessary to make Rachel’s infamous Shepherd’s pie-meets-English Trifle recipe at home, just in time for your own family’s holiday festivities.
To avoid confusion – or at least Rachel’s confusion – those who receive this special kit will actually get step-by-step recipe cards to create two distinct recipes – a Shepherd’s Pie and a Classic English Trifle – as well as fun swag that includes a trifle dish and a Friends-themed apron. Because Rachel’s Trifle is really two dishes in one, the trifle dish will include a center divider so that while she chose to mix her concepts, you can serve them side-by-side instead. But feel free to go wild and eat it all together, the “authentic” way.
“FRIENDS has brought joy to our screens for the last 30 years, and at HelloFresh we wanted to honor the show by offering something exciting and exclusive to fans. When thinking about a memorable food moment from the show, nothing felt more iconic than Rachel Green’s Thanksgiving trifle,” says Michelle Doll Olson, Senior Culinary Development Manager at HelloFresh U.S. in a press statement. “A unique mix of sweet and savory - it posed a fun culinary challenge for us. We even created a special glass dish to serve the sweet and savory recipes side-by-side (instead of on top of each other which is just hilariously bonkers). We set out to create a recipe that felt true to the episode, but one that was also delicious. We’re excited to see how fans enjoy our twist on this dish.”
This sounds like it may just be the best way to spend this year’s Friendsgiving, or at least give a really fun story for future ones.
