Recipes for 1

[febbabies2023]

So I've recently become single for the first time in 10 years so have to do shopping just for myself (and the two little ones)

So hit me with recipes that you like if you live alone that may (or may not be) suitable for little people too.

Not a massive lover of a lot of vegetables if I'm honest!

Cost efficient or things I can take to work the next day a bonus!

I would have said lobster & champagne, until you mentioned kids.
How old are they?

@Georgyporky haha that would be lovely! Maybe I'll keep the champagne for myself
They are 4 and 18 months old- 4 year old is fussy but is slowly getting better. 18 month old is a human dustbin 😅

Have you got a slow cooker OP?

Have you got a decent size freezer? I batch cook and portion out into takeaway boxes for later.

Cost effective, ridiculously healthy. Brilliant both for you and for your children. I don’t work for them! I do eat a lot of their products - whole foods work well as you can batch cook for the fridge or freezer.
