Ready-made meal delivery service Youfoodz is introducing a new limited-edition meal inspired by The Block – Lando’s Meatballs & Chorizo Pasta with Tomato Capsicum Sauce.
Set to satisfy tastebuds and toolbelts, Lando’s Meatballs & Chorizo Pasta has been built and crafted by House 3 contestants, Lisa and Rosco, after taking home the win during The Block’s special cooking challenge.
With celebrity chef Shane Delia putting the contestants through their paces, teams swapped paintbrushes for frying pans after being tasked with creating a meal worthy of the Youfoodz range.
After going head-to-head in the kitchen, Lisa and Rosco came out on top with their hearty combination of tender beef meatballs, smoky chorizo, parmesan and fusilli pasta in a rich tomato and capsicum ragu.
The dish, Lando’s Meatballs & Chorizo Pasta with Tomato Capsicum Sauce, was crowned the winner in a special Youfoodz cooking challenge that aired on The Block.

Named after their son Lando and created while expecting their second child, Lisa and Rosco’s winning dish has received the full Youfoodz treatment.
Packed with 40g of protein, Lando’s Meatballs & Chorizo Pasta combines tender beef meatballs and smoky chorizo with fusilli pasta, coated in a rich tomato and capsicum ragu – bringing hearty, home-style comfort to busy days, whether you’re on the tools, at work, training, running around after the kids or simply need something easy.
“Lando’s Meatballs & Chorizo Pasta is a really special one for us. It was inspired by our family, our son Lando, and the kind of hearty meal we loved enjoying after a real day on the tools,” said Lisa and Rosco.
“We had so much fun creating it for the Youfoodz challenge, so to now see it brought to life as a real Youfoodz meal is pretty surreal. We’re absolutely stoked that people around Australia can give it a try and get a little taste of our family and our time on The Block.”
According to Delia, cooking under pressure is a bit like building on The Block.
“You’ve got a clock ticking, plenty of opinions flying around and you need to pull everything together when it counts,” he added.
“Lisa and Rosco’s Lando’s Meatballs & Chorizo Pasta really hit the brief. It’s packed with flavour, feels like the kind of meal you actually want to sit down to after a big day, and most importantly, it delivered when the pressure was on.”
Youfoodz has been the official meal partner of The Block in 2026, fuelling contestants throughout the competition with 6000 meals across fridges, microwaves and vans as they navigate the highs, lows and tight timelines of life on site.
Now, the partnership is going one step further, taking a memorable moment from the show and putting it straight into Aussie fridges.
