Mashed potatoes are great for sneaking in veggies and things too! I make
"veggie burgers.." Take whatever veggies you have around and process them
together (onions too!). Saute them in olive oil with your choice of spices
(I use garlic, s/p, oregano...). Mix with potatoes and then make patties.
I cover mine with breadcrumbs and then freeze them. When ready, thaw and
heat a bit in the microwave. Then crisp on pan with olive oil. If your
child can eat eggs, I would mix them in too! (Mine can't unfortunately)
My boys will eat them on hamburger buns (non-dairy!) with catsup - they are
very good.

One of our "quick fix" meals is refried beans and tortillas. My 2
1/2
year old loves the beans from Taco Bell, so I do my own too. We
always
have extra sauce packets from the drive through. I buy the small
cans
with a pop top lid. I give her about half a can. Put some mild
sauce on
it and microwave it for 20-30 sec. I cut the tortilla into little
triangles.
Another great make ahead / keep in the freezer must for us is mini
hot
dogs in a blanket. I use the cocktail size Addells chicken and
apple
ones which are the only ones I've found that don't have corn.
Hebrew
National also makes a cocktail size, but I can't find them 'round
here.
I use the Pilsbury Reduced Fat Cresent Rolls and cut each into
quarters.
Wrap the little dogs and bake them about 10 minutes. Put them on a
rack
and cool. Put them on a tray and freeze. Then just put them in a
zipper
bag or other airtight container. I take a few out and heat them up
in
the wave.
I also have made chicken nuggets and frozen them, but that's a lot
more
work up front. When I make spaghetti sauce, I freeze 2 oz
containers
then I just have to cook pasta.
