When you’ve got a baby that won’t leave your hip, it can be tough to get things done.
Especially things like sitting down to eat a healthy, nutritious lunch. This can be a time when you might reach for a quick fix like a chocolate biscuit or muffin as they can be eaten one handed – not a great option.
But today we have some quick lunches that you can easily eat with just one hand. Just search for the recipe in the online Challenge Hub.
