One of my ‘quick meals’ for my children if we have been out all day and not had time to organise dinner is a quick creamy pasta! They love it, I love it and it is so simple!
All you need to do is your favourite cooked pasta, a dollop of cream and a few herbs and spices!
Today we cooked our Egg Noodles, drained the water and popped the noodles back into the saucepan, added the cream and paprika, cooked back under the grill and chopped up into little bits, chopped up leftover BBQ Chicken and added a few tablespoons of sweetcorn. Heated through for a minute and then served with a boiled egg on top.
My kids like this hot or cold leftovers in their lunch the next day! Just ensure you pop an icepack into the lunchbox!!
On the menu:
Quick Creamy Pasta with Bacon, BBQ Chicken and Hard Boiled Egg
Strawberries
Raisins
Wheat Crackers
Served in the Bento Lunchbox.
We have gotten to the point where Punky is so impatient for her dinner most days that she gladly eats stuff plain. I just cook some pasta and she will happily eat it with no sauce what so ever! Strange kid!
