The dcs have a slightly hectic after school schedule this term and we have 2 nights where I literally have half an hour to feed them between activities or me needing to go out myself (yes! I do have a life too lol!)
I don't mind giving them a beans on toast type meal once a week but 2 nights in a row seems excessive But they aren't quick eaters so I don't really have time to cook even pasta/rice.
They do have a school dinner but one of the nights ds1 is doing swimming and tennis so he needs plenty of fuel! Last week he had a sandwich but it wasn't quite enough. What can I feed them? I do have time to prep/cook earlier in the day or the day before.
So far have come up with pittas well stuffed with tuna & sweetcorn, with maybe some salad bits? Veggie curry with naan/pitta? Cold cooked chicken with crusty bread and salad.
Any other ideas much appreciated!
