I always keep a stash of homemade chicken nuggets in the freezer for those times when I just can't bear the thought of battling fussy kidlets at dinnertime. These nuggets are delicious and have the added bonus that you know exactly what is in them.
Sneaky Banana, Spelt and Yoghurt ‘Pankeletes’
My fussy little critters LOVE pancakes. This version uses spelt flour instead of regular wheat flour to create an alternative that is higher in fibre and protein. This breakfast is a surefire hit in our humble little kitchen almost every weekend.
Sandwich-Filling Farfalle
The classic sandwich filling of ham, cheese and tomato is the base for this simple pasta dish that is a winner with the whole family. Cooked in one pot and delicious served hot, warm or cold - it's a great way to use up all the bits you have lying around for the kids's school lunches.
Smoked Garlic Spaghetti Aglio e Olio
I've had spaghetti aglio e olio countless times - usually in the wee hours of a Sunday morning after a big night out. Using smoked garlic was such a delicious twist - complex and savoury - it took this classic pantry meal to a whole new level. I will definitely make it again very soon!
Roast Veg and Brown Lentil Soup
This soup was so easy to make, using leftover ingredients and cooked in one pot. Super tasty, nutritious, full of veg and another added bonus.... My fussy little humans ate it AND enjoyed it.
