What am I having for dinner tonight?

[Lillonely]

yesterday was a stressful day so I didn’t get ahead with me meal prep for the next day (today) like normal, and it’s the day before our shop comes and I’m stumped, 3 youngish fussy numptys (sorry kids) and needs to be ready in about 30 mins, anyone any ideas? They’ve already had eggs for breakfast and (homemade) pesto pasta for lunch. Any clues as the dreaded hr approaches?

I had soup and bread

My dc like to have soup with cheese sandwiches

Nice! What kind? Were you able to make it In 30 mins?

Yes. From a tin..

Open the tin, pour in to saucepan, heat.

I microwave frozen fish fillets and serve with noodles, peas and broccoli. All done in 10 minutes.

What do you have in your cupboard? My go-to when out of time is pasta, but since you've already had that I would go for something like bruschettas (whatever you have on thick bread with cheese on top and grilled, tuna can work well).

You could do egg fried rice, boil the rice, whisk in an egg and fry off with the dregs of remaining veg

I’ve got all the stuff the muppets won’t eat, chickpeas (apparently dc 2 is allergic dodgy tummy every time, GP says potential allergy), used up all our eggs this morning. No noodles, just random shit that DH bought coz it’s looked interesting

This is my go to but I used the last of the eggs this morning 😭😭

Your children want cheese toasties with carrot and cucumber sticks.

Just do them a massive bowl of porridge and some fruit if you have it. Won't do them any harm, they've had two 'proper meals' today.

Picnic dinner aka any crap that you have assembled on little plates

mine think it’s the best thing ever 😆

Ah that’s a winner! Picky plate! I’ve got scraps of everything so that’s perfect!

thank you!!!

Fishfingers and chips

Glad it helped!

mine think a picnic dinner is the food of Kings 😂
