more kids meals that worked

Wraps with salad veg and chicken, cheese and mayo (they just started liking mayo so its fun) I got all the veg chopped and in boxes in the morning which made the arvo easier. And there were enough veg for a few more days.

 So later in the week we had the same  veg and pasta but with "chips"and "pizza". I just put tuna and cheese on the pizza dough before cooking it in the toaster oven, no sauce.

tired, but kids need to eat!

 This is what meal prep often looks like these days: In the morning I chop veggies and meat, or in this case use already ground meat (by a machine!), already to cook closer to the time. This is one meal everyone in the family can eat at the moment, which is a pretty rare thing! (Its kind of like fried rice only we mix the rice in at the table)

Another meal we had the other day which worked well: some salad veggies, plain wholemeal pasta (with mayo on the table) and an omelette that had a can of fish mixed in. Easy for the kids to eat, and the preschool loves cracking eggs so he actually helped cook this one!

dinner at home?

So my previous post was about our weekly meal plan, it worked well for a few months. But then I started work in the evenings, on top of Soeun working evenings so we didn't really  have the whole dinner time thing. But during the last 3 weeks of Sept I'm not out at all in evenings and Soeun only has one weeknight out so hopefully we can start eating again!

our current weekly dinner "plan"

Monday- Mix it up (cook something new/different/that we only have once in awhile) last week a pork pesto salad thing, this week sushi rolls

Tuesday- fend for yourself

Wednesday- We all love Daddy cooking stir fried beef with veg such as leafy green, broc, caps etc

Thursday- fend for yourself

Friday- Fish, so far we had fillets from supermarket, rather than normal fish

coconut ice

100 g condensed milk, 100g icing sugar, almost 100 g of coconut

choc fudge

melt 200g chocolate with 200g of condensed milk , add about 12 grams butter and 100g of icing sugar
can also add extra cocoa, sesame seeds, peppermint etc

trying to remember what we cook so we can get ideas later

monday
squid, carrot onion stir fry, steam brocc with a sauce we made up= garlic fried in sesame and olive oil, with other seasonings

tuesday
cold rice noodles, veggies, peanuts, cold chopped pork, a sauce made from lime juice and what i thought was sweet chilliw sauce, but we also put other sauces on the table , would have used basil, mint etc if we had it, and more veggies
