Make roasts and live off the leftovers both good for sandwiches and other meals such as hot pot and chicken burritos.
Roast lamb or beef can be reincarnated with the peas and carrots added and some stock (or if you are like me, a veggie oxo and a beef oxo) and then put sliced potato on the top - voila "hot pot".
Roast chicken can be wrapped up with salad in a flat bread as a sandwich, or to be more fancy added to a tin of tomatoes or a jar of dolmio, and veggies family will eat, wrap in soft tortillas, place in baking tray, more tomato sauce on top and grated cheese. Put in oven until cheese brown and tomato bubbling. Or add roasted chicken to pasta with a tomato sauce and add a few olives if they will be tolerated.
Roasted veggies are excellent and can be eaten for days if you make a pile, they are sweet and therefore generally eaten by children. Peel and chop any of parsnip, yams, sweet potatoes, beetroot, carrots to the same size, sprinkle olive oil over top and cook for about an hour in a hotish oven. Squeeze a lemon over about 1/2 in and add fresh rosemary or thyme for last 15 minutes.

Roasts are easy, all the other meals are just putting together leftovers. Lots of protein in the meat.
