Something simple that a 3 y/o and 6 y/o will eat before going to the library...

Any ideas?

Steph...I tried the PB.Banana.honey.chocolate grilled sandwich, and it was really awesome!!!

I normally do pasta in that case :)

My kids are the same age and they really love chicken alfredo.

I boil my water while I cook some chicken tenderloins in a pan on the stove or under the broiler. Salt and pepper is enough seasoning, and I use olive oil to keep them from sticking.

I add pasta to the boiling water, and add in some sort of green vegetable for the last 2 minutes or so. Broccoli is always one they like, but I've made it with peas, green beans, carrots, or just about whatever suits my fancy.

Then all you have to do is drain, chop the chicken into bite sized pieces and add both the chicken and warmed alfredo sauce to the pan. I normally serve it with a little bit of bread, or maybe a salad. When I just want it served and eaten quickly though, it's just the bowl of noodles, and it is still a complete meal.

Fresh caught catfish (and whatever else we pull in from the lake today) and likely chicken to round it all out. I think we're going to grill, so to go with it maybe roasted carrots and salad.

Was hoping for some Sushi but plans did not pan out and ended up having a "put-whatever-I-have-got-at-home" sandwich.

I also bought a small box of sushi from the supermarket and it was horrible! I still haven't got my regular sushi fix this week (shouldn't have given up the evening classes) and I am not happy.

I thought there were bye-laws!! Believe it or not, when I lived in Berlin in the early 80s, there was food stock-piled in the event of another Soviet blockade. Obviously, it had to be rotated, and we in the Forces got the older stuff, dirt cheap. It was actually cheaper to feed the dog on rump steak than to buy dog food!
