What's your evening meal stop-gap?

[Nelle]

Pasta with grated cheese and sweet chilli sauce
Scrambled eggs
Chicken nuggets/fish fingers/other frozen thing
Yoghurt with chopped fruit
Tinned soup with broken up bread or breadcrumbs to make it less runny for little ones

I might add frozen vegies and/or tinned fish to the first three.

Tuna pasta- tin of tuna with lemon juice, a bit of olive oil and some steamed greens (brocolli, zucchini beans cooked in microwave if you're super lazy) stirred through cooked pasta and cheese on top.

BBQ chook and salad (and bread and butter)

Asian omelette and rice (basically an omelette with stir fry veggies from freezer and soy sauce)

Indian stir through sauces with steamed pumpkin, potato and sweet potato (and chuck in left over BBQ chicken) with rice and pappadums

Otherwise porridge, toast or weetbix!

fried rice - just whatever i have in the fridge in the way of meat & vegies. usually some bacon, red pepper, peas, corn...that sort of thing. then some soy & sweet chilli sauces. we're not egg eaters but you could put egg through it as well. i often have some mini spring rolls in the freezer & will heat those up to go with it. you can cook the vegies/meat while the rice is cooking & then just mix. only takes 15mins.
welsh rarebit - just snazzy cheese on toast really!
baked potatoes with baked beans

[MummyNaomi]

Ours is fish fingers and one of those steamer bags of frozen veg - usually the brocolli, carrot and green bean one. Oh AND if I put a little pile of grated cheese on the plate DS is in heaven
And the 'adult' version of the quickie fish finger meal is a fish finger sandwich with lettuce and mayo - YUM!

Some really great ideas here, thanks you guys!

My saviour is Kids ravioli , the chicken and vegetable or beef and vegetables. I mix some pasta sauce or ricotta cheese through it.

Also the kids love fried rice. If we have steamed rice from the night before just fry it with some veg and egg and ham, frozen veg if easier.

Cream cheese, vegemite and avocado sandwiches if I am in a total rush to get to work on time. They LOVE that combo the best for some reason.

I really love zucchini slice. It's so simple & easy - the only downfall is it uses a lot of eggs & sometimes we don't have 6 spare eggs as my youngest is mad on eggs. We usually have a few rashers of bacon, a spare zucchini, some cheese, flour, corn & tomato on hand to make it though. It's delicious.

I'm also a fan of baked beans on toast (when we are in Aus, the baked beans here are awful).
