    Most times it's dinner leftovers from the night before. I always make extra for lunch the next day. Otherwise, if it happens to all get eaten beforehand (by DP ), it's usually a sandwich with avocado, hommus or tzaziki.

    Ham, cheese, tomato sandwich

    Tuna, grated carrot, corn and mayo sandwiches. DD (nearly 3) will aslo eat this mixed with baby potatoes, so it's kinda like a potato salad.

    Quick omlette with chopped ham/bacon, cheese, frozen corn/peas, grated carrot/zucchini/mushroom (whatever veggies I have in the house)

    Leftovers, he particularly loves leftover bolegnaise and lasagne

    Boiled eggs with toast soldiers

    Soups/caseroles made in the slow cooker

    When I'm feeling energetic and have lots of extra time, I crumb some fresh fish or chicken into 'nuggets'- just bite sized peices- and make homemade chips with potatoes, pumpkin, sweet potato, and carrots. Served with a salad assortment of cucumber sticks, cherry tomatoes and avocado bits.

    One for when I have only a little extra time, is- Put a peice of bread into a muffin tin, and fill with a mixture of eggs, cheese, creamed corn and bacon bits. This is really yummy!! I have an actual recipe if you want it...

    Here it is hun....hope you like it!!




    •4 strips of bacon


    •6 eggs


    •grated cheese


    •6 slices of whole meal bread


    Small tin of creamed corn


    PROCEDURE

    Pre-heat the oven to 170(ish) degrees.


    Spray some muffin tins with oil. Press the bread into the muffin cups, one for each cup.


    Chop the bacon, then mix with the eggs, cheese and creamed corn in a bowl.


    Spoon the egg mixture into each cup of the muffin tin. This recipe should make enough for 6 cups.


    Bake for 20-25 minutes until the egg mixture isn't runny anymore.

    Whatever everyone else is eating. Sometimes a sandwich with vegemite or peanut butter or cheese. Sometimes a cooked meal if we have it at lunch instead of dinner, etc. But we always include a banana because he demands it everyday.
