If you’ve got a packet of tortilla wraps knocking around in the cupboard, then i’ve got five recipe ideas for you that are so flippin’ easy and quick that even the most sleep deprived/stressed/time-starved parent can make them without breaking a sweat.
From quesadillas to home made nachos, bolognese enchiladas and lightning quick pizzas, the kids are going to love you for it.
I’ve created these kid-friendly recipes for the brand spanking new parenting app called mush, which niftily matches you up with other local mums so you can hang out and not go bonkers.
So kind of like tinder crossed with the NCT, but without the one night stands or emphasis on breast feeding. Ahem.
As well as finding other mums in your region to buddy up with, there’s also a wealth of witty survival guides and parenting hacks by some brilliant mama journos and the first of a few recipe features that i’ve written for them.
I hope I’m not explaining it badly… just in case here’s a little video:

Emma @ Supper in the Suburbs says
Genius idea! My best friend has just had a baby and doesn’t know many people in her area – this is perfect! Thanks for sharing 🙂 I’ll be sending her your way!
Katie Bryson says
Definitely pass it on to her Emma, it sounds like she’s the perfect candidate!

Mush sounds like a really good idea! My mum was part of an NCT group when I was little, and they are still friends now, 27 years on! I’ll be recommending this to my mummy friends. Loving this recipe too!
Katie Bryson says
Thanks Sus, yes making new friends when you’ve had a baby is super daunting but extremely bonding!!!!
Samantha Rickelton says
Oh how exciting – I’m off to download the app now.
We ALWAYS have tortilla wraps in (and always have leftovers) so I’m heading over to check your recipes out now 🙂
Katie Bryson says
Aw thanks Sam!

I love the idea of mush, I really do. I wish something like this had been around (and the technology to go with it) in the mid 1990s when I was the only one I knew with a baby. I felt quite isolated because I was poorly in pregnancy so never got to do the NCT thing. This would have been a great boost. Anyway, that’s super that you are involved Katie, and what a great way to contribute. Love quick and easy tortilla recipes. 🙂
Camilla says
Fab selection of recipes Kate, I keep meaning to make my own Nachos and I think you’ve given me the push to get on with it now. This app sounds great as being a parent can be quite isolating if you don’t have access to a good support network.
Margot says
Sounds like a great app. Does it come in version for Android phones as well?
And those tortilla wraps look amazing!

Tortillas are so versatile aren’t they, great for really quick meals and snacks. I’ll pass this on to my parent friends, I’m sure they’ll appreciate the app.
