I have been basically learning to cook since I had children, and it's a bit of a slow process - so many misses among the occasional hits. I feel a bit overwhelmed at the AMOUNT of recipes out there; so many books, blogs, types of cuisine etc., and would like to just start by building up a repertoire of family meals that always go down well.
The other day I made Jamie Oliver's meat loaf but with a different (Austrian) tomato sauce; it was really good and the dcs just sat and ate it in rapt silence. They also love roast beef and chicken pie and pasta with tomato and basil sauce, or with cream, ham and peas. Oh and cauliflower/broccoli cheese.
That's about it and otherwise mealtimes are a whole lot of cajoling (me) and fussing (them). So I wondered if you could help me compile a list of absolute corkers by telling me what goes down well every time with your lot and/or if you have people over for lunch/supper.
Thank you
