Right then ladies, after my last thread complaining about DH not wanting to meal plan, I've thought, fuck him.
I have designed a menu today which notes his shifts (so it will have to tweeked four weekly etc) and therefore I can make sure I meal plan the dc's meals for when he is at home to make sure he eats with us all. (we usually eat about 8.30 when they are in bed and I find this too late and often get heartburn).
So, what I would like is some ideas,
DC can be fussy but I want to try and knock it on the head, I'll try to explain best I can
DD1 is not keen on any meat whatsover, only things she likes meatwise are, chicken nuggets, hotdogs, chicken burgers and chicken kiev. Loves garlic cous cous and hates lemon/lime couscous
DD2 is not keen on spicy food, sauces etc so she won't eat the veggie lasagne I make that dd1 adores, loves lemon/lime couscous, hates garlic couscous, loves any kind of me
DH (pain in the arse I can work round)
I know I'm going to get flamed for the above being fussy, but, DH and I have argued so many times because he will say in front of the dc 'i don't like this' and 'that is disgusting etc' so I think they have picked up alot from him
I love bolognese etc so I'm going to get some tupperware and freeze some for me.
Meals I have so far are:
- Chicken kievs and salad
- Fishfingers, (homemade healthy chips) peas
- Shepherds pie (one dc eats mash and veg other eats meat and veg)
- Jacket potatoes
- Sausage casserole
- Hot dogs (treat) - (home made wedges)
- Home-made pizza on saturdays (including dough)
- Mince and potatoes with veg
- Toad in the hole
- Omelette
- Lemon chicken with new potatoes and fresh crusy bread
Any more ideas and recipes would be greatly greatly appreciated, especially the ones that go in a slow cooker.
