My DS is over 14 months. I'm struggling somewhat being a 'single parent' lots of the time, because I get back from work, need to feed him and feed me before he gets to bed, and so I usually give him a jar because I can't manage to cook a meal that both of us can/will eat (I'm veggie.)
The salt issue - first, how much is DS allowed to have, and can someone spell it out to me (because grams etc mean very little to me!)
If I cook some pasta with a packet sauce for me, say, Tesco's finest cherry tomato sauce, or Ragu, can he also eat that? Or is there too much salt in it?
His breakfast is weetabix, lunch is at nursery/my mum's (she cooks him 'real' food but from scratch without salt), so it's only the evening meal that's stressing me out. And just to explain, the stress is coming home from work, and either playing with him or cooking an Annabel Karmel number from scratch for us both to eat. What I'm after is something that doesn't require 15 minutes prep and 30 minutes cooking, but can be done in about 15, max, which we can both eat, allowing me to spend time with him.
Sorry, all very pathetic.

Salt - how much is too much, and can someone suggest easy peasy quick cooked from scratch meals?
