Am bored so have lots of random questions today
My fave is home-made lasagne or soup I think. Although I do like curries too but lo won't eat them

Pasta and tomato sauce with tuna and peppers. But that's because it's what DD asks for every day. I'm hoping that things will improve when she's a bit older though (not yet 2).

Roast, because it's yummy.

Fish pie or cauliflower cheese, because they're DH's thing to make with the DCs, and I get to MN with a diet coke and not have to do the cooking (and they're delicious once they're cooked, too).

Quesadillas are basically a sandwich between two flat flour tortillas, seared in a hot pan.

In mine I use three types of cheese, yellow pepper, chilli, spring onion and fresh coriander. Then cut into quarters and serve with salsa guacamole and sour cream. Yum.

A bit like a mexican version of pizza.

frahitas
hmm, that's not how its spelt...
You know the tortilla with lightly spiced chick/quorn and peppers, creme fraiche, salsa, whatever else you fancy, wrapped up making a mess, fabulous.
btw my son is 4 and makes the most unholy mess but its fun and the only "tingly tangly" food he'll eat

they sound tasty TheDevilWearsPrimark!

Tempted to try them next time I need a shop, although not sure my budget would stretch to 3 types of cheese

Probably lasagne and salad. We all gobble it up.

We also go crazy for kleftico, enchiladas, fajitas, any kind of pasta, especially linquine with clam sauce or spaghetti with prawns or penne with asparagus or penne with italian sausage, tomatoes and cabbage, sausage and mash, fish and chips, various fish and meat pies, chinese pork or chicken or prawn fried rice, roast dinners, various chops, thai green curries, and turkey escalopes with a mushroom sauce and buttered tagliatelle.

I use red leicester, mild cheddar and mozarella, but you could use just one.

The dc would say Fajitas because, they love them, they love putting them together themselves and, whenever we have them we have a "lounge picnic" and I cover the carpet with beach towels and they get to eat in front of telly which they never normally do!

Everyone has such varied tastes, I've never heard of some of these things, never mind try them
