Dinner...

I know I haven't posted about Lunch yet but...another day. Tonight was like most nights, Troy worked quite late and as usual. But I started cooking early-ish anyway because I like to feed Hudson around 5.15-5.30. Tonight is one of those hard nights as I'm borrowing the car from Troy tomorrow to do the groceries and I've stretched it out a few days longer due to Troy having external meetings and it's one of those 'cook what's left' nights.
So with that in mind the creation for Troy & I is Pan-fried Chicken & Broccoli with Seeded mustard Cream sauce and rice.
I always have in the freezer at least 4 different meals in containers that I make for Hudson (I'll post about a Bubba Food cook up day soon I'm sure!) but when I can these days I like to give him what we are having with some variation of course. So with the usual for Hudson in mind I firstly made his fingerfood. Some steamed broccoli pieces and about 15 semolina pasta teddies. I love how kids can carb up! The his main was what Troy and I were have except I stuck a portion in the food processor to puree up a bit (had only put a splash of cream in the pan) and added some Farex and some expressed breast milk. These are what tonight's bowls looked like
As always Huddo did not disappoint me in his efforts. Everything eaten yet again. I laugh at myself at what excites me these days.....it's so cute to see your kid loving a bit of steamed broccoli and actually making "Mmmm" noises and as you put a spoonful of your cooking to his lips he already eagerly has his mouth open!

Troy didn't disappoint me either. He went back for seconds. (Something that we both should watch but I find very satisfying as a cook!)
