Hi,
I'm totally stuck in a rut! We all arrive home from school and work about 6.10pm (4 days a week) and I need some easy meals to cook that they will eat and are healthy.
I'm currently cobbling together snacky teas for 3dc (3,6,9) like beans on toast, chicken nuggets, hot dog and chips, pesto pasta. But I know they veg intake is not what it should be. I then cook another meal for DH and myself once the kids are in bed. I'm exhausted and don't want to cook two meals.
My problem is time and slightly fussy eaters as they're used to the junk food. DH and I love all food (apart from pork for DH bacon and sausages are fine). We also love spice which the kids won't eat. My eldest is the fussiest but I'm well used to adapting separating her meal so it's acceptable.
Can anyone help? Just after some ideas. I'm used to meal planning and happy to cook.
