There are many meals in Disney Dreamlight Valley, and more are added with every update. Because of this, it can be hard to figure out what’s worth cooking, especially depending on whether you’re trying to cook for profit or use your meals for energy.
Whether you’re looking to restore some energy for tasks around the Valley or you want to make a quick buck, I’ve narrowed down the 10 best meals for each purpose. I’m going to split the base game recipes from any Rift in Time DLC recipes, but give 10 of each so that you’ve got all your bases covered whether you have the DLC or not.
