Leftovers from dinner the night before is a frequent meal here... I don't go to too much fuss... we can't afford too many convenience (pre made supermarket meals) so i cook alot from scratch. I'm just about to make some scones... I bake nearly every day... especially in winter, helps warm up the house so I don't need to turn the heating on. Soup is a great lunch... throw in what ever needs using up... lentils and legumes are very cheap/filling and versatile. We are a bit extravagant with bread though... avoid the mass market stuff... love Phillipa's and Flinders. My kids aren't fussy... they eat whatever i make... my youngest included... i've hardly ever made separate meals for them.
