What is your favorite kid only meal when you and DH are NOT eating with them?

Anything is good when I am privileged enough to eat it without a million questions coming from my toddler and trying to deal with the baby flinging food all the while my food is getting cold lol.

As for a favorite meal, I don't think we have one really.  Steak?

Sorry, I'm an idiot and read your question wrong.  As TERRIBLE as it is, pre-made toddler meals are my go to kid only meal.

Mac and cheese, grilled cheese, buttered noodles, and - this is gross - Chef Boyordee (sp?) ravioli.

Tator tot casserole. I loves it.

Horribly processed food that is oh-so delicious.  Easy Mac, frozen chicken nuggets, and a fruit cut.

I always feel bad when DD eats all of that right up, but if I grill chicken, roast veggies, and make home made mashed potatoes, she wants nothing to do with it.  I'm convinced preservatives are crack.

I agree on the cheese & meat roll-up.  I lived on those as a teenager.  My mom called it a rolito.

Usually Mickey Mouse chicken nuggets from Costco with ketchup and some steamed veggies and fruit on the side.

This. But I serve them with a fruit pouch or two

Thanks!! I do most of these but love the "rolito" idea!  I also make salmon patties but call them, "crabby patties".  My kids LOVE them with roasted potatoes and they are so easy.

A string cheese, a pouch and a half a can of peas.  DD would eat this 3 meals a day 7 days a week if I let her.

Earth's Best frozen toddler meals.  B likes the Elmo pasta best.  It's served with carrots and broccoli and we'll serve fruit with it as well.  I know frozen dinners aren't ideal, but if I buy it Whole Foods, that makes it better--right?

My go-to is whole wheat spaghetti, frozen peas and blueberries.  He probably eats this once a week.

That doesn't really happen much. If we are leaving him with a sitter, I usually give them pizza money.

A quick lunch that I like to make for DS is a wheat sandwich thin, tomato sauce, torn up spinach, onions, cheese. Put it in the oven on broil until the cheese melts.

This would be DS's diet of choice too.
