Ever cooked a fancy meal only for your child to reject it? I am so tired of cooking meals for my children to just stare at it and say 'I don't like that'........
YOU HAVEN'T EVEN TRIED IT!!! I am screaming in the background.
I've put together a list of affordable and straightforward meals that most kids will enjoy, and they won't break the bank. Kids like bland food, simple is the solution.
I know it doesn't meet the 5 portions or veg bla bla, but when you are at the stage where you just want your kids to eat .... then these meals are the perfect solution.
