I'm not minding today and DS/DD have after school club so I think I'm going to do simple jacket spuds with cheese/beans or maybe homemade coleslaw.

I'm going to prepare this minestrone (http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/4807/chunky-minestrone-soup?pager.offset=20) for tomorrow night as we'll be rushing to dance class and I'm minding all day.

Yesterday we had spicy root vegetable and lentil casserole (http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1364/spicy-root-and-lentil-casserole). Both these recipes are new to us, I'd Googled for recipes before doing my shopping list/meal plan this week.

DD & DS decided to have school lunch today (its a roast!) mindee arrived and he was having school lunch too, so LO and i had baked potato and left over bolognese sauce for lunch, and i have made a brocolli quiche for tea, to have hot, along with baked beans! (yogurt and fruit for pud)would usually have a more substansial meal, but i think with them having a main meal at school today, that will be fine! my other afterschool mindees will probably have a hot cross bun and some fruit!
