Fantastic.
Sitting down with me and my nearly 3 year old talking about our days with me working as much as I can and him being at my mum and dads or nursery. That tea time meal is what brings us together every night. I miss him so much being away from him in the day but needs must and that tea is the best part of my day by a mile!
He is so fussy when it comes to food and he will only eat basic foods which drives me INSANE! But plenty of Dolmio pasta sauces have hidden veg and great amazing flavour for an easy tea that he will eat yet it tastes amazing and still has that homemade family tea time taste which we love.
I'm not the best cook in the world but dolmio make it so easy! It's all done for you packed with flavour and so many varieties to choose from for both me and my growing fussy eating boy.
This competition is an amazing thing to do along with helping out families in need. And there are alot out there that dont or cant get the help they need to be able to feed their family. And I know at hard times ive been there. Every credit to you dolmio and we will continue to enjoy your products at our meal time every night.
My husband grows a lot of vegetable, so he brings in what he's grown and my daughter and I cook the dinners, having sat down together on a Sunday evening to plan the week's menus. We cook a wide variety of different meals, including cottage pie, salmon en croute, lentil lasagne and coq au vin. We make sure to eat as healthily as possible, for example we have fish at least once a week and a veggie meal twice a week. But we also have some lovely treats such as blackberry and apple crumble using the fruit from the garden.
We use our meal times to catch up on what's happened to us during the day and the local and national news, as well as to discuss plans for the future.
All in all, this enforced living arrangement has been a wonderful experience for us all.
In this case their appetiser is usually fruit, and dinner is most likely two steamed veg with either mashed potatoes, fries, or potato waffles with a meat (chicken, fish, hamburger, or sausages) as the protein. Once a week will be pizza or pasta.
i am happy they still like to chat over dinner and not get lost in electronics or television. They have good appetites, get plenty of fresh fruit and veg every day, and are engaged with me and each other.
