Very quick easy kid friendly meal ideas

[SuzieG]

I usually get home close to 6pm - please give me some quick easy meal ideas that my 8 and (fussy) 5 year old will eat.

Thanks

Hard to know what the kids like Suzie but here's a few I singled out as I know my grand-kids would eat them.

Honey soy chicken winglets is a popular one with the kids.
Chicken croquettes  can be made in advance or frozen then just fried on the night.
Chicken or tuna a la king
Bangers & mash
Easy carbonara - just like the packet pastas.
Tuna & macaroni bake

Some can be prepared the night before and just baked or reheated when you get home from work.   Our young working Mums will have more ideas for you I am sure.

Chicken and sweetcorn soup goes down well here. I usually do it on a Monday night after I have had a roast chicken.
beef stroganoff is usual great too

I made Thai Chilli Chicken and Basil last night and my 3 boys(7,11 and 14) scoffed it down and asked for more!! It's not hot but a really nice flavour. I actually had a standby spag bol in the freezer, sure I was going to have to heat it up for at least one of them so I was pleasantly surprised!

It surprises me how many kids i see eating sushi.

If your kids eat sushi you could cook the rice the day before. Get the kids to help you fill and roll them.
