2 year old DS goes to nursery 3 full days a week. They give him breakfast, lunch and a late snack (3.30pm). Some days the snack is basically a full hot meal, some days it’s cheese and crackers. By the time we get home it’s only half an hour until bath and bed.
We always give him fruit and something light when he gets in, but always get a bit stuck if he needs something more with no time to make it!
I need some super quick food ideas that I can give him if the snack hasn’t been very big, that either require little prep, or that I can freeze and give him microwaved. He’s normally shattered so wouldn’t manage a full meal like his usual tea!

TIA Smile

My almost 2 year old DS sits down for a proper dinner with us after nursery, so we do quick teas, like omlettes, pasta, or something that's been in the slow cooker during the day.
They have nursery tea at 3.30, but by 5.30, 6 ish, he's definitely ready for tea at home. He often eats a similar amount to me. He's certainly not overweight, he's only just growing out of some of his 12-18 clothes.

We just do toast and peanut butter, yoghurt, fruit etc. and milk. My two have the same routine as yours and have three meals at nursery.
