Providing a healthy meal for tired, hungry children at the end of a long day can be challenging to any
parent. Often the temptation to grab a take away meal is strong and greatly encouraged by your
children. My suggestion is to think ahead and have suitable fast meals available in your fridge or freezer.
Another option is to use some take away, like a cooked chicken, to use with other products in your
refrigerator and pantry to make the pizza or wrap recipes. Remember that takeaway fast food is
acceptable occasionally but try not to buy them every time. And when you do have them, always
look for the lower fat alternatives. Most of these recipes can be made well ahead of time and be ready for quick reheating when you get home while the kids have a shower – or at least wash their hands.
