After recent events I am now bracing myself for life as a single mum. My DC's will have a hot meal during the week at school and I'm wondering what an appropriate evening meal would be as seen as they will already have had a proper meal on most week days. I am going to be on a really tight budget.
At the moment I cook a whole host of things for their evening meal as they usually have sandwiches for their lunch. Everything from cottage pie, roast chicken dinner, spaghetti and meatballs, lasagne etc . Will they still want/need a meal like that if they have had say a roast beef dinner for lunch?
What do others in my position do? Any meal ideas or general advice would be welcome as I'm trying to meal plan etc at the moment.
