Jen’s meal plan and simple slow cooker recipe tutorials

A message from Jennifer

Jennifer

I often get asked how I produce so many meals for the tribe of little mouths that are at my home at dinnertime daily, truth is with planning and very little preparation.
I am a busy married mum of 3 children who are 6, 4 and 16 months but I also work a full-time 50 hour week as a Registered Childminder.
I currently have 7 children here after school so my kitchen essential is my slow cooker.
I try to make well balanced, nutritional meals and also have to factor in any allergens the children may have so I plan my meals out to include the children’s favourite foods along with adding a variety of meat and veg daily.
I hope you enjoy my short slow cooker video tutorials, and I hope to speak to most of you on the facebook group or please comment below to request other slow cooker meal tutorials.

  1. Hello

    Just wanted to find out where you bought the packet of mixed fish for the fish pie slow cooker recipe?

    Thanks!

    1. Hi Lucy
      I bought the Fish mix pack from Aldi.
      I added 2 cod fillets aswell as extra and they were also from Aldi in one of their frozen packs. I defrosted them before using them.
      Hope that helps and you are enjoying the videos?

      1. Thanks! I thought they were Aldi but I couldn’t see them in their fish section last week. Will look again next time! Loving the videos! Please keep them coming! X
