Weekend Reflections: What is your must have foods?
Do you have a must serve staple food in your weekly menu? Is there a must have food that the kids request over and over again? The boys love eating ham and egg. We serve this as one of the dishes for dinner quite regularly during our weekday dinners. It is fast and tasty to eat with rice or noodles.
The kids love eggs so I cook variety of eggs for them throughout the week. Sometimes I fry the egg sunny side up, scrambled or have it poached. On other occasions I make chawanmushi if we are having Japanese food that evening. We normally have egg as one of the dishes together with a side of vegetables. The kids are not really meat lovers but I do make sure that they do get chicken and fish to eat at least 2 -3 times a week. I also try to ensure that they have a balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables.
I would like for the kids to try out a great variety of foods however they are not as adventurous and still quite young I am holding back cooking more spicy and differentiated foods for them to eat.

This week has been an extremely busy week for me. The kids are on holidays due to PSLE marking. The exams are next week for Monkey boy. In between doing revision with him I’ve got him to help out in the kitchen. I feel that now at 8 yrs old he is old enough to learn how to make his own meals. Here is his first attempt at cooking lunch for himself.
