My little granddaughters love to help make their own individual pizzas. They mix the dough and choose their favourite topping ingredients. They often create some very odd pizzas, but eat every single one of them!

“Nana soup with Nana roll”: chunky hm soup with carrots, onions and (secret ingredient) a tin of baked beans and maybe one of red beans. Also two or three balls of frozen spinach stirred in towards the end. Nana roll is just an ordinary homemade roll with his initial on the top with a thin roll of dough. ?

Beef with loads of onions which melt down into the gravy when cooked in the slow cooker all day. When my granddaughter was tiny she could only say a few words and one of them was 'more'. I had broken the beef into tiny pieces and fed it to her with a bit of mashed potato and she just kept saying 'more'. I was getting quite worried as she was so small but she knew her own mind!
