What will suit all kids

I need recommendations for healthy meals that will suit most children (fussy and non-fussy, healthy and non-healthy eaters). I have a 6 and a 2.5 year old who are middling but often invite other children for tea who could have any number of fads.

I'd be grateful for your ideas. So far I have pasta dishes and wraps which work. Also sausages and mash/peas. What else, please (with links of you have them).

Picnics.

It's a salad under a different name, with cheese, cold meat, hard boiled egg, salad things, olives, chopped fruit, hot baguette and warm new potatoes.

Last week I went for healthy and easy: steak, mash, carrots and broccolli. The little boy ate nothing at all!

Tomorrow e have a little girl coming and I am making breaded chicken strips (homemade), homemade potato wedges, peas and sweetcorn.

But I figure I will serve whatever DD would normally be having and if they eat they eat. DD would normally eat with me and DH, but eats early if friends are round. But it tends to still be something similar to what me and DH are having.

I do ask parents in advance to check there are no allergies or nothing they really don't like though.

So:
pasta
chicken
beef
cottage pie
sweet and sour prok/chicken
rainbow platter (strips of coloured salad veg, with cold meat, cheese and bread)
fish pie
etc.

Hi
I'm a childminder and my lot really love fish pie, I use smoked haddock and cod, cream sometimes spinach.
Older ones like making pizzas from halved muffins with selections of toppings.
Pasta, spag bol.
Good old sausage & mash, cheesy onion mash sometimes for a change.
Homemade fish cakes
Puddings usually fromage frais or jelly or fruit
