I’ve really been struggling with meal ideas for the whole family. I don’t know why but we just seem to stick to the same few meals rotated around, not really very exciting!
So I asked some of my fellow bloggers what their family favourite’s meals were for inspiration and they didn’t disappoint, some of these sound amazing.
Meatballs and pasta dishes seem to be a big hit with families.
These slow cooker Moroccan inspired meatballs from Blissful Domestication sound amazing and they use the slow cooker so always a winner.
The Bear and the Fox has a great recipe for meatball too!
If you are looking for a quick dinner choice tonight this one pot spaghetti in ten minutes from Five for a Fiver is sure to be popular midweek.
Fans of mushrooms will love these two dishes, Captain Bobcat has a yummy creamy spinach and mushroom one pot pasta dish and Buzy Mum has a great recipe for mushroom and thyme tagliatelle.
This creamy cheese and ham fusilli bake from Just Average Jen looks delicious and something quick for us to have after a busy swimming night.
