Food - Have Hit A Wall - Need some ideas please !!!
Hi ladies
DS will be one at the end of the month and I've really hit a wall with what to feed him. I think it stems partly from the fact that I'm now back at work so don't have to think about his meals three days a week - then when I do have him I'm stuck for ideas !!!
Can anyone give me any ideas what I can give him that is quick and easy. He has pasta quite a bit and fish fingers with mashed potato/carrot. I had some portions of shepherds pie in the freezer but hes eaten them all - and I keep meaning to make more but never get a chance
Any advice would be greatly appriciated - I feel quite down about it at the moment ...

I'm a pasta girl myself and could eat it all day everyday so I prov won't be any help
chicken coated in breadcrumbs and Parmesan (I made this for m and Hubby and was lush)
Pizza? Quissedellas (sp?) they are tortillas with filling and topped with cheese and then another tortilla on top then cut like pizza
sausage and mash
sausage, rice and chopped tomatos and veg?

Yum!
How's it going? Don't feel down Hun you've done a great job and it probably doesn't help being back at work etc trying to find time etc! Quick meals like spaghetti Bol or anything with a jacket potato is always a winner here! What about leaving a bit of yours for h for the next day? I know you have quite a bit of spicy stuff but if h likes it to it might be worth doing that? Or beans on toast with grated cheese? London loves that and it's so quick!! Is h at nursery now? How's it going? Are you having a party for him? Londons party was manic but all good fun! Xx
Lots of love
a week ago we dusted off the slow cooker and mealtimes are transformed. Toby has always loved green veg but root veg he wouldnt eat - he does now in a casserole and the meat eatting is amazing.
The beef casserole went down a storm and as it was cooked for 6 hours the lumps of meat was so easy to eat.
We have done the same with chicken and port - you can even do shepherds pie in them.
Seriously - mealtimes are amazing now. Today he had sausage casserole and demolished it - x
Cheese on toast
Scrambled egg - throw in peas or chopped tomatoes and some cheese and pile on toast
Soup - takes 45 minutes to cook from scratch but make large batches and freeze
Wrap salmon in foil with some butter, lemon juice and chopped tomatoes and stick in the oven for 20 minutes.
Cut a chicken breast into strips, dust with Parmesan and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes.
Stir-fry (using low salt soy sauce).
Hope that helps.
