    Instructions

    1. Try Pasta bolognaise pie instead of spaghetti bolognaise. It’s got all the traditional elements of a great spag bol but, being a pie, it will be a novelty for your kids!
    2. Make Rainbow fried rice which has ingredients in every colour of the rainbow. This dish will be a huge hit with toddlers as it’s not only delicious, but also pretty to look at.
    3. Try Bacon and leek macaroni cheese, so instead of serving up same ol’ mac and cheese, try this version instead.
    4. Serve Fish tacos as an alternative to beef tacos.
    5. Roasted vegetable lasagne is the perfect way to modify a meal that everybody already loves.

      I like the rainbow fried rice idea and seeing the link it’s actually our typical fried rice recipe, but naming it as such would be good for the imagination. Lasange recipe is a good one too.

      I reckon vegetable lasagna would be a hit because it is very similar to normal lasagna just with veg instead of meat. Spag bol pie now that Sounds pretty delicious and what kid doesn’t like a pie. My kids love pies so this sounds like a great hit in our family.

      Not sure how much my kiddies would like these…but will try… they are so used to traditional food like curry.. they are sometimes fussy with these kinds of dishes.

      Some great new ideas here, just a pity there are no recipe links! I really like the sound of the bolognese pie and I’ve always wanted to give fish tacos a try, yum yum!

      Oh the spaghetti bolg pie sounds interesting! I wonder, do you put pastry on the top and bottom? Vegetable lasagne, that sounds a yummy idea! I’ve been making a Chelsea Winter Pumpkin and Chicken lasagne lately and its devine!
