Yummy, quick and easy! Some of my kids favourite recipes!

I will never be famous for my cooking abilities, perhaps more so for my lack there of! The "Today's specials" board in my kitchen usually comprises of microwaved frozen veggies served with either "chop biscuits" as my husband calls my overdone chops, or stir fry on wraps which my children tell me is like eating carpet!
But here are a few quick and easy recipe ideas that even I can't mess up, they are not the most healthy but nice for a treat!
Slow cooker- any cut of cheap lamb + 1 cup of coke + 1 cup of tomato sauce + 1 table spoon of brown sugar. Chuck it all in in the morning, high for 2 hrs then low for 5 or 6 and you have the yummiest tender stewed lamb and the kids love it!
Home made warm caramel topping- put 2 spoons of brown sugar and half a cup of cream in the microwave for a minute, stir it until thick (might need to zap it again) and pour it over ice cream! mmmmmm! So good on french toast ot pancakes or toasted waffles!
Simple dessert- Make your own cold-rock icecream! Crush up chock chip coockies and have them with ice cream, OR let the ice cream soften a little and mix a heap of coco-pops through it! YUMMO!
Try some of these for an unhealthy treat, you kids will love them! Let me know what you think!
