A friend gifted me a few hellofresh boxes once and I quite liked the recipes. But I don't care about subscription services to get overpriced groceries delivered if the supermarket is a 5 minutes walk away.

Is there any collection on the recipes online? At least in Germany, recipes aren't even copyrighted, so it wouldn't even be illegal to distribute them here (AFAIK, IANAL).

Don’t bother. Most use pre mixed spices from them, wich are even harder to track down.

The pre mixed spices list their contents and it's not that hard to come up with something similar by just using the individual ingredients.

I find the spices quite easy to substitute. It's either obviops or I'll just mix up stuff I like from my spike rack.

I kept a few recipes from a subscription I was gifted. Honestly, replacing the missing ingredients has been more fun than cooking the boxed meals.

I have tracked them down: https://joesdaily.com/food-drink/hellofresh-spice-blends-how-to-make-them/

The trick is to use a search engine. In my case, I used DuckDuckGo

If you tried reading that article, that these are "just" guesstimates of some of the spices they found online. I have a couple in my recepies that are not on this list.

The trick is to read. In my case, I used my eyes
