Absolutely. Perhaps some Angel Delight after for calcium?

Yes, but not every day. Salt probably high in FF and smiley faces.

Only if it is washed down with a Fruit Shoot.

Nothing wrong with fish fingers and peas but I wouldn't say it was the best meal with smiley faces crap.

What's a smiley face?

FF & peas is a favourite with dd.

Don't know what smiley faces are but the rest sounds fine

DS loves fish fingers and peas. But so far refuses to be interested in any potato product, smiley or otherwise...

Protein, carbs, one of the 5 a day.
Probably quite high in salt tho.

As long as it isn't everyday what's the problem? (Ditto Fruit Shoot - mind you having tasted one I can tell you they are quite disgusting).

And does one pea constitute one of your five a day?

0.7g of salt per serving (smiley faces) is that a lot?

Oh no I must be an awful parent! My DS eats fish fingers, peas and smiles or waffles maybe once a week for a quicky dinner! And he drinks Fruit shoots when am out If I run out of juice. I don't see the problem with it TBH not like it's all the time.

Alphabites much better than smiley faces. educashunal, innit?

fish fingers are fine for salt as i recall, no art colourings in the birds eye ones. frozen peas a must. smiley faces are just wrong, imo, and not food. esp when a pot can be baked in the micro if convenience is the main thing.
