Here are the foods that make life so much easier… 1. How to Fasten Up Home-Cooked Meals “These are a total gamechanger. We initially bought a mix of kids and adult blocks, but now we just buy the adult ones as I find I always make sure the fridge has kid-friendly food in it, but often I forget about us. These are packed full of veg and nutrients, and you can serve them with veg, protein or carbs or use them to make things like baked eggs. And sometimes we just eat them on their own.” TMC Editor, Lydia House Find out more 2. A Prep-Free and Delicious Treat “I love these crêpes; I buy them for my kids, but I eat them too. They don’t contain any artificial colours, flavours, preservatives, or palm oil, and they’re so tasty! They’re great to give after a busy day or on the go.” TMC Co-Founder, Jessica Lawes Find out more 3. Easy-Peasy Perfect Risotto “I can never manage to perfect risotto when I cook it from scratc. It’s one of those things that the time and effort you put in, never seems to be worth it. That was until I found this bag in Waitrose, and since then, I’ve always kept some in my freezer. It’s a basic mix of veg and risotto. But if you add some parmesan, extra veg, and chicken or fish, it becomes the most incredible dish.” TMC Brand Partnerships Manager, Charlotte Sacks Shop now 4. The Speediest Home-Made Snack “I make these all the time and they’re so easy to create. I whisk an egg with leftover dinner veggies, add potato to fill them up and then pour the mix into a muffin tray and then whack them in the oven. I bulk make them, so they’re good to use all week – if and when I need them. They work for breakfast, lunch, dinner, an on-the-go snack.” TMC Co-Founder Lauren Webber Recipe 5. The Quickest Hack for Staying Healthy “These are so great to keep in your freezer, as sometimes even the thought of what to put in a smoothie can feel too much for my brain. I often make one straight after nursery drop-off so when I sit down to work, I have something healthy to sip when hunger strikes. It helps me avoid unhealthy snacks and means I’m more likely to choose a more nutritious lunch.” TMC Designer, Jen Williamson Shop Now Our editorial team has selected all products on this page; however, we may make a commission on some products.
