Coles launch new content creator series to celebrate What’s for Dinner relaunch

Coles has launched a new integrated campaign with content creators Rebecca Harding, Flex Mami, Jeff Van De Zandt and Coles Ambassador Brent Draper , to celebrate the What’s for Dinner re-launch.

The announcement:

Coles has the $5 answer to the million-dollar question around dinnertime this season, relaunching its popular “What’s for Dinner” campaign with all-new quick and easy dinner recipes starting from just $5 per serve.

With a Coles survey revealing that between 55 to 60% of customers rate “make it easy” as their key need during dinner time, and 62% of customers think about dinner preparations on the day, Coles is continuing to help customers get quick, easy, and delicious food on the table in a flash, with all What’s for Dinner recipes taking 30 minutes or less to cook and using no more than five ingredients.

At a time where customers are looking for ways to get savvy with their spending, The What’s for Dinner meal plans continue to provide value – all 20 of the new recipes cost between $5 to $8 per serve to feed a family of four – using simple ingredients including healthy fresh foods and convenience buys.

100% Australian meats including Coles Lamb Mince, Coles RSPCA Approved Chicken Breast Fillets and Coles Australian No Added Hormones Beef Sizzle Steak are just some of the quality fresh ingredients customers can find on their dinner plates with Coles.

Coles has also taken the guesswork out of selecting a summer sip to match with Friday dinners thanks to its clever liquor pairings for the What’s for Dinner recipe selection, featured in the Coles catalogue, Coles Magazine, and at Coles Online.

Every Friday for the first month of the campaign, customers can enjoy quality beverage pairings carefully chosen to work with the flavours of the What’s for Dinner recipes, like a bottled brew to enjoy with the Steak Sandwich with Beetslaw and Camembert, or a summery sauvignon blanc to enhance the flavours of the Asian-style Schnitzel Burgers.

Customers can watch the campaign come to life thanks to Coles’ new content creator series. Produced by Melbourne-based creative agency Tiny Disco, Coles partners including Rebecca Harding, Flex Mami, Jeff Van De Zandt and Coles Ambassador Brent Draper showcase just how easy and delicious the What’s for Dinner recipes are through engaging, easy to follow social videos. Customers will also be inspired through TVCs and radio advertising produced by marketing communications agency Big Red, and in-store recipe cards.

Coles Chief Marketing Officer Lisa Ronson said making life easier for customers by providing solutions to help feed their families using fresh, quality ingredients is part of Coles’ commitment to helping all Australians live healthier, happier lives.

“We know that as we progress into the new year and there is a renewed focus on the household budget and back to school and work, our customers are looking for great value and they are prioritising meals that are quick and easy to make.”

“Our latest What’s for Dinner campaign reflects the needs of our customers and provides them with tools to plan healthy meals across the week, using quality ingredients that are affordable too. With 20 new recipes and over 100 What’s for Dinner recipes all available and shoppable in store and at Coles Online, we’re providing customers with more choice than ever before.”

The 20 new recipes are included in this month’s Coles magazine providing 5-day meal planners for four weeks. Customers can look out for take-home recipe cards in their local store as well as shop
all What’s for Dinner recipes online at Coles Online, with Click&Collect and home delivery options available.

The 20 new recipes featured in the What’s for Dinner meal plans include:
