    Had another quickie tonight - arancini from the deli. It's basically risotto that's been rolled into a ball, coated in breadcrumbs and shallow fried. I keep meaning to do this with leftover risotto but haven't got around to it yet but the ones from the deli were great. It's a little Italian-run supermarket so they know their onions!

    Roast vegetable quiche (shop-bought) with baked beans is another quicky in this house.

    That plum jam lamb sounds delish! My DD loves anything with rice, so I always freeze ziploc bags of rice in the freezer and just pull out one if I'm having a 'lazy cooking night'! She loves tuna rice (grated cheese, frozen peas and tin of tuna stirred through rice) or chinese rice (leftover chicken, peas, corn, egg and a splash of soy). I also make chilli con carne in the slow cooker, strog, bolognaise etc and keep frozen portions in the freezer. I'll have to try those chicken crackles though, think she'd love them
