Hot weather meal inspiration

29 replies

DCs are 2 and 5. They are not too fussy (though not keen on trying new things) but their favourite meals are soups and stews, cottage pie, lasagna, risotto etc which I don't quite fancy in this weather.

I've unfortunately not had them used to eating salad bits, apart from corn, cherry tomatoes and cucumber.

I'd love some inspirations for 30 degree days like today. Thanks!

Sorry I'm only getting a chance to respond now but I read your answers this weekend and they gave me so much inspiration!

I forgot I used to make quiches or savoury flapjacks for "picnic" lunches last summer I will start that again! Thanks for reminding me!

I love poke bowls and will have a think about toppings my DC will enjoy to try to entice them!

Also love the idea of a rotisserie chicken with salad bits or baguettes.

Will add pitta bread to my next shop also. Somehow we haven't bought them for a few months and I forgot they existed!

Feeling hungry now!

We had Gyros at a street fair the other day and now I'm craving them so picked up some Greek pita breads, ready cooked pulled chicken, salad bits and tzatziki from Sainsburys this evening. Will warm the pitas in the grill for a few minutes to make them all lovely soft and fluffy and then pile with chicken, salad and sauce for dinner tomorrow,

Can't wait!
