I thought that I would share a few more toddler friendly meals, that are easy to whip up during the week. Now, some times it can be difficult to get your toddler to eat meat – let’s face it, chewing on a steak when you don’t have all your teeth isn’t going to be the easiest of tasks. So I think that cooking meals without meat or with a limited amount of meat {or even slow cooking the meat so it is nice and tender} can make a meal #toddlerfriendly.

Now, the warmer days mean that you might not want to have the oven or slow cooker on all day to produce a soft, stewed beef, pork, lamb or chicken dish. So here are my picks on some of the best toddler friendly recipes I have for warmer weather {that will be also enjoyed by adults}. These dishes are super quick and easy – but full of flavour so that the adults in your household will be happy to eat them for dinner as well.

I also find that the leftovers of these dishes {minus the gnocchi} are great for lunches the next day – and who doesn’t love to kill two birds with one stone in terms of meal preparation? Think more time to be out in the sun with your kids; running around, climbing trees, splashing in the water play, making awesome childhood memories.
