Hey! Which sandwiches did you do?
We do porridge with either berries or banana for breakfast, egg ‘muffins’ or egg bites. Fritters, so sweetcorn or grated courgette with flour and egg then fried. I’ve tried banana pancakes but she doesn’t like those for some reason. Corn on the cob she loves, also pastry wheels so puff pastry with spinach and cream cheese inside. There’s lots of butternut squash at the moment so roasted butternut, whizzed up in a blender with a little low salt stock (or just water!) with mild herbs and spices and used as a pasta sauce with pasta. Pitta bread with home made hummus/smashed avocado/tuna (in spring water) mashed with full fat yogurt. Pizzas - so pitta or pizza dough topped with home made pasta sauce (just tinned toms, onion, garlic, herbs) topped with a little cheese.
Hope that gives some ideas!

Really random one but my little boy loves an avocado and tuna mix
Or little pizza pinwheels that I make with puff pastry and then cook and freeze,
Or a crumpet with cashew butter he loves!xx

Breakfast is always some variation of weetabix with fruit and yoghurt or milk. Then, I often make extra dinner portions so they can be lunch for the following day. Always have some frozen homemade tomato sauce and sweet potato to go with pasta or beans, and pre-prepared veggies in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Ooh and breakfast, he likes the Yeo valley little yeos with either some tesco branded cheerios,
Or porridge with fruit puree mixed in(i usually make apple and mango and freeze it)
Or the yoghurt with a crumpet with cashew butter

For breakfast I usually do weetabix either on its own or with some fruit added, sometimes some ‘overnight oats’ or if it’s for quickness just a bit of toast with some smashed banana or even just butter
Lunches I usually do whatever I can find: pasta lunches, ‘pizza toast’ tuna and sweetcorn patties, savoury muffins, puff pastry pizza pinwheels and usually just had a little bit of fruit on the side. With most of this lunch stuff you can batch cook it and freeze it with just a very few ingredients which I find very handy
