Lemon chicken and pea risotto.

They all hated it

I have pasta with tomato sauce and cheese planned. Also the lamb casserole with dumplings.

Tell me they are going to be more successful

What do they normally eat?

I would say the other two may be more successful - they would go down a storm with DS1 - not sure I could say the same for lemon chicken and pea risotto.

I did veg burgers from the 2nd book and none of mine would eat them.
I haven't tried any others yet!

The risotto is the only recipe from that book I have not been successful with.

Ooh I love the risotto! My Mum even had seconds! (Unheard of).

Can't remember if I've done it for DS though.

Gillian76 · 09/10/2006 21:13

I liked it. And we do have risotto on a fairly regular basis.

Think it was the lemon that put them off tbh.

Do the desserts - toffee tart is DIVINE!

NastyNemo666 · 09/10/2006 21:15

do the chilli it is gorgeous!!!

WitchICouldGiveUpWork · 09/10/2006 21:15

Dd aged 17mts LOVES the lamb casserole-don't give up!

Gillian76 · 09/10/2006 21:16

Deserts not so easy as DD2 is dairy allergic.

Toffee tart sounds delish though. Will try it for DH and I

Oh bum - sorry, forgot about the dairy allergy - well make the jam tart then (although you may want to use strawberry rather than the lemon curd we had - nearly ate the whole thing in one night)

HuwEdwards · 09/10/2006 21:19

My kids adore lamb and love pasta too. Rice they would've eaten I guess but not with as much gusto.

Good luck

Gillian76 · 09/10/2006 21:20

Jam tart they would love.

Fish cakes are popular here but can't remember if they have egg in...

Gillian76 · 09/10/2006 21:23

Egg we can do.

I hate fish though I force it down on a nutritional basis!

Am off to try her flapjack recipe now.

Well I use cod which doesn't really count as fish (well it does, but not oily fish) ... so it's only an alternatively shaped fishfinger really

GeorginaA · 09/10/2006 21:25

Or I'll use tuna...

Gillian76 · 09/10/2006 21:37

Flapjacks in the oven.

Tuna I can do. Cod almost, as long as there's no bones!

We are doing the chicken nuggets on Saturday, everyone helping

Get cod loin - never found a bone yet
