for a quickie supper, make blue box mac and cheese as directed, add to it a can of beeferoni, stir together, top with more shredded cheese, place in oven proof container, bake until cheese on top melts and serve.

in big bowl put the following:
1 can rotel
1 small can of sliced black olives
2 cans dennison chili con carne
2 cans refried beans
2 bricks of cream cheese
stir as best you can to combine, place in crock pot, lid on, low temp, for 5 or so hours.
stir as you go as it needs to all combine.
place 1 cup of Mexican blend cheese on top and stir in just to marry.
now lift lid and dip pita chips or pretzels or tortilla strips into.

elbow macaroni cooked and drained. For 2 cups of pasta I would use 1/8 to 1/4 cup of milk, 1-2 tablespoons margarine, and salt and pepper to taste. When we wouldn't eat anything else even as todlers we would eat this. works great for teething children that won't eat cause their teeth hurt.

Not quite a meal, but I've found that "cheesers" are good. Just put some cheese in the middle of flour tortillas and roll them up. Nuke them for 25 seconds and you have a quick and tasty snack. Kids love them.

Tortilla pizzas are a great idea. Kids seem to love quesadillas too, just a simple Mexican variation of the grilled cheese! Fill a tortilla with a little shredded cheese, fold in half and then toast in a frying pan on each side until the cheese melts.

Definitely, pizzas and noodles.
I try to convince my kids for other dishes, but hardly succeed. sometimes, they accept soups also.

Most kids love sweet stuff and won't be able to resist. Mine is mad about semolina pudding with fruit. It's very quick to make, and the great thing is that this kind of dishes is very healthy when you serve it with fruit. My favorites are pitted cherries or plums but any fruit will work.

Pancakes are also great and fairly quick to make (I always use all the pans I have and bake them simultaneously to be done quicker), and you can make them in advance and keep them in the fridge. Serve them with fruit or fruit purees and kids will love it.

Here's a recipe for raspberry puree (250ml):
Put 250 g fresh raspberries, 2 tbsp. of honey and 1 tbsp. of lemon juice in your blender and blend until smooth. Tastes great with pancakes, and it can give your ice cream a healthy touch too.
