I'm Currently Feeling: | Dionne you can buy packs of chicken breast fillets out of Iceland etc. No bones etc, so will be fine for Harley. U not like chicken? It can be a meal for all of you  |

| I am the same with meat. i buy an organic chicken once a week and get 3 meals from it this may be one idea,it is roughly £6-7 I amke loads from Chicken lasagna,chicken stew,etc etc and with the bones i boil them up for stock for soups etc...
Dionne if you want some soup idea then fire away also the best pasta is the ministrone stuff.

I'm Currently Feeling: | You can also get baby gravy and baby cheese sauce mixes. These are suitable and are reduced salt. I also made sweet potato which Jonny loved you can mash it just the same as normal potato, also parsnips are sweet and might tempt them. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Dionne, I always steam veggies cos it keeps in more vitamins etc.
Charlies favs are:
Roasted sweet potato
Baby pasta (from boots) with veggie sauce (tinned toms, mushrooms, garlice, onions, courgette, sweetcorn.....all blended up, i freeze it in ice cube trays still)
Mash, beans and cheese
Lasagne
Chicken, sweet potato and roasted aubougine (sp!!) mixed together
Roast beef (she sucks and chews on a stip of it haha)
Chicken and mangos
Yorkie puds
Pesto sandwiches
grapes, raisins, dried apricots, satsumas, etc as snacks
Why not buy a ready cooked chicken and make up a few recipes and freeze them?
Well done to you hun for giving the home cooking a go, its bloody hard when ya not a natural hey??? Good on ya xxx |
