You could use factories. https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/seeding If you pass an array in to the make and create methods they will get merged in to the data array the factory generated. If you use that along with faker you'll be fine

$category = factory(App\Category::class);

factory(App\User::class, 50)->create([
    'name' => 'jon',
    'category' => $category->id
    ])->each(function($u) {
    $u->posts()->save(factory(App\Post::class)->make(['title' => 'test']));
});
