My 4year old granddaughter loves simple apple crumble made with stewed Bramley apples, 60g unsalted butter, 60g caster sugar and 120g flour. Now her 8 month old sister is enjoying the stewed apple too!

My grandson is very partial to hummus with carrot sticks.

Hardly a recipe - but jam sandwiches win - perhaps in need of a certain recipe book

My eldest grandson is a big fan of risotto and calamari. All love pasta especially lasagna.

Swimmers’ pasta. A mixture of pasta and veg which is easily transported to the swimming pool and shared with lots of chums.

My three year old granddaughter loves baking with me and then proudly sharing the results with the rest of her family- her current favourite is banana muffins using ‘nanny’s old bananas’.

Well done nursery for putting dishes of chilli, Bolognese and curry in front of tots for lunch- mine will try anything.

My grandchildren love grandmas porridge with berries. It's no different to what mummy makes but because grandma makes it they think it's really special. How wonderful does that make me feel!!

Pasta with homemade tomato sauce.

Using left-over puff pastry - roll out and spread with Marmite, roll up and cut into pinwheels, bake until brown - this makes a delicious snack for those who love it! Those who hate it can starve try peanut butter!

My grandson's favourite meal is Shepherd's Pie or sausages. I think he'll turn into a sausage one day!

Sad to say my 4 year old grand daughter gets most pleasure from Brioche with Chorizo. I would love to get her eating more healthily.

My granddaughter always loved my (split) pea soup made with split peas, carrots, stock and pieces of gammon. Always a winner in my family ?
