Hi everyone, not sure if this in right place but does anyone else have problems getting good food down mindees? I plan a menu for the week which tries to take in to account their favourites as well as healthy eating and, dare i say it, vegetables and potatoes which are not chips!
I think i am a reasonable cook but tonight i did dausage and mash with mixed vegetables and the amount of food i am throwing away is awful - mainly the veg and potatoes.
Last week i got them all to do an activity around healthy eating which included writing down their own menu for the week and no big improvement there either. one new item - Korma curry which i have included this week but here is a selection of foods i do regularly cook
Shepherds Pie
Sausage & Mash
The "required" Chicken nuggets & chips
Pasta with chicken breast and an optional tomato based sauce
bacon & eggs etc - which goes down a storm actually
Fishfingers & chips
pizza
Any ideas gratefully received.
