We hope you\u2019re all staying safe during these uncertain times and listening to the government\u2019s guidelines. With restaurants, pubs and cafes all having to close we thought we’d share with you some easy recipes we’ve either tried and tested or love the look of that you can make with or for your kids.\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/header>\n

These recipes from Tesco<\/a> are all simple to make, affordable and there’ll hopefully be something for even the fussiest of eaters. If you shop at Tesco via KidStart<\/a> you can get up to \u00a34 back for your little ones.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get the kids in the kitchen with these delicious Paprika Beef Taco Cups<\/a>. Swap ordinary taco shells for tortilla wraps and bake in a muffin tin until crisp, before filling with warmly spiced beef and topping with a little crunchy lettuce, apple, pepper and cool soured cream. If you want to cut down on meat swap the beef out for a veggie or vegan alternative or beans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Caramelised

Nana’s ‘magic’ soup<\/a> is the perfect, easy recipe if your little ones are adamant they won’t eat vegetables. It’s packed with tomatoes, peppers, carrots and more and the star toast is a favourite with kids. It’s easy to make in bulk and then freeze to enjoy later too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
