Wanted-a family cookery book with recipes that adults don't find boring and kids WILL eat!!!!!!

[MilaMae]

Anybody recommend one??????

I find pandeing to kids only makes things worse.Cook what you want and invite them to join in.If they don't, thry go without.Has worked well for thousands of years.

Already do that, have never pandered-2 eat whatever and always have 1 doesn't and never has done.

Would like to at least try to find recipes that suit us all as he is now at school so going to bed having eaten nothing on a nightly basis is not preferable.

If he is hungry, he will eat.Believe you me.

But as cookery books go, you can't gop wrong with anything by Nigel Slater.

My DD eats most of the stuff in Jamie Oliver's cookbooks and we love all his meals .

I know others rate Tana Ramsey but I have never looked in her book.

I think these books are v. good - bit repetitive - there is a specific kids ones - but generally i think they are good 'family' meals.

this is my fav Jamie book

He is hungry and he doesn't eat, that strategy works with the other 2 not with him.

Any Jamie Oliver book in particular?

i was going to ask if the new jamie book is any good?

Crossed post-thanks for the link Artichoke

Popmum have several of those they're fab aren't they. Have the 1 pot,Cheap,Veggie any other recommendations in that series?

Jamie Oliver Ministry of Food one is my fav - I have actually cooked 4 meals from it so far in 2 weeks since I've had it.. We have all been a bit more adventurous as well. After this one I would recommend, Jamies Dinners, The Dinner Lady and Second Helpings. I have had dishes from these as well.

they are great!
I'd say also simple suppers, best ever chicken ones.
Also seen this one ""Good Food" The Family Meal Planner: Thrifty Recipes and 7-day Meal Plans to Help You Save Time and Money " which is not out til next year but looks fab!!

Moondog - is there a particular Nigel Slater you would rate?

I love ALL Nigel Slater! Love his 'fast food' and fast puddings books (small paperbacks) as they are so ordinary, yet tick all the boxes for tasty, healthy, quick etc

Thank you - I will see if the library has a copy before I order it - I am a bit addicted to cookery books!!!!!

love every one of 'em

I have all Nigel Slater's,are there any particular recipes Moondog?

love em all

Popmum just looked at that link-looks good

Go to WH Smith and get the Australian Womans Weekly cookbook. Its a staple in every Aussie household and its now rediced from 25 to 6 pounds. Heaps of easy and kiddie friendly recipes. It weighs a ton though

I use This 30 minute cook book a lot.

i like the 'kitchen revolution' but the recipes are not cheap - although altogether it does save money i think.

Another vote for Jamie Oliver Ministry of Food
