Quinoa & some sort of slow cooked thing. (Safer to reheat etc than rice) Bolognaise or Ragu with Pasta Leftovers Mash Beans & chicken/meatballs/sausage At home: duck bao buns/pancakes 😂 Asda make your own pizza. Stir fry Fish finger butty. Steak wraps with red peppers
@Cal are you genuinely making these things every day for your little at lunch? These sound like dinners to me 😂
I make pizza with a super easy super quick 2 ingredient high protein dough (just greek yogurt and whole wheat flour) and then i blend some cooked veggies like carrots and red bell pepper into the pizza sauce and top with cheese! There are also plenty of recipes online for savoury muffins and egg muffins! If she likes yogurt make homemade fruit yogurts and sprinkle in some chia seeds or hemp seeds or blitz up nuts! My son loves weetabix so i always load it up with blitzed nuts and seeds and he doesnt notice as it blends in! And i add fruit to it too
@Teri Yup! He’s at a childminder 3 days hence why lots is done in slow cooker to reheat. So Ragu or Bolognaise we’d do enough for 3 or 4 portions and freeze some. Then just cook pasta/Quinoa the night before. At home he eats same lunch as us and we put more effort in if we’re all eating. X
My 2 year old has recently become obsessed with soup! So we do that a few days a week. Avocado on toast, jacket potato with beans and cheese, fish fingers xx
Jacket potato with cheese and beans.. pitta bread pizza. Picky plate. Leftovers from night before. Soup and barmcake. Wraps
Mine has chorizo slices with bread sticks. She will also ask for cheerios. We’ve had toasted bagel or just plain bagels. Fruit salads with a yogurt. It’s more about getting the nutrients in them than the calories as your doing your job as a parent by offering them three meals a day. It’s up to them if that eat it or not
