All wrapped up
Wraps are such a simple, quick meal, however if you're buying the branded meal kits they can work out expensive and often too spicey for little taste buds.
This site has loads of both sweet and savoury ideas but the chicken and cheese spread and the egg wraps look like definite winners to me.

Mammas meatbaLls
BBC GOOD FOOD has a wealth of recipes to choose from but for me this has got to be one of the best for kiddies.
Tasty meatballs in a hidden veg sauce, which takes just 15 minutes prep time according to the recipe. For days when you really want a quick fix, I'd be tempted to buy ready made meatballs and just make the sauce.
Perfect for a night in front of the TV watching Disney's Lady and the Tramp!

Good ole mac n cheese
Mac n Cheese may sound obvious but it's not to be overlooked. I love this super, simple recipe that has just three ingredients. It's ideal for those nights when you just can't face cooking.
What's great about this site is they give you some variations to try as well such as a low fat version, bacon and leek, or simply throwing some frozen peas in the mix.
