Hello, may I ask what your babies/toddlers like to eat? And what easy options/cheats do you employ when you are pushed for time/energy/inspiration? Watch this space - working on a weaning cookbook for healthy family foods and am keen to pick other mothers' brains as well as posting recipes to get feedback. Input duly credited in the book! Thank you in advance for any replies.

Fresh pasta - 3 mins

Microwave a steam bag of mixed veg. Stir together with a blob of philly and some grated cheese


Cook up lots of tom sauce (with veg or hidden veg) and freeze in small portions. Serve with pasta (or couscous) and stir in chicken, tuna, salmon, tinned salmon, philly, grated cheese or chopped ham


Make a little salad plate wirh rice cakes or breadsticks, tomatoes, carrrot, cucumber, raw pepper, serve with grated cheese, hard boiled egg, ham or hummous or salmon, cold meat


Bake a potato (7 mins in microwave, 5 mins in oven)

Cut in half, scrape out flesh, mash with cheese, philly, chopped ham or salmon, sweetcorn, put back into potato skin


Mashed potato served with pesto, pureed peas stirred in

I now generally give our toddler the same as we eat and have done since he was about 10 months - so i just make a bit more of what we have and freeze little pots of it for him. He likes Chilli con carne and chicken balti - with sour cream added to make it less hot. he loves fish bakes and various chicken dishes we have. I also think a tomato and veg pasta sauce is always really good and make a big one and freeze portions of it. Fuschia - like your potato ideas.

    • They are. We are back to the same construction racket 8am-8pm every day for the whole of this week. The wall is one of the last things to come down, probably on Saturday. Then we can see how much of a mess they've made, especially the quantity of non-biodegradeable litter trampled into the earth. GALA 2025 - Production Schedule.pdf
    • The irony of the name of this festival...
    • @Rockets be a sweety and stop using the large font, it's annoying and I expect most can comprehend. Still not sure how this festival affects you.  Or is it a case that you just like taking on causes 
    • It is intimidating looking through the book sections now.  I sometimes wonder if they're stocking bookshops' remainders. OTOH, when I put  some books out in a cardboard box for taking, it was  encouraging to see that a fair proportion of those taken were aged hardbacks.
