When I first started weaning with G&H I was adamant that they would be little foodie fans, like us. They would eat everything and try new things and blah blah. Famous first mother words ‘eh?
Generally they are pretty good. I think having them together probably helped, because even if one randomly decided that they didn’t like something (“No Mummy, today NO WHITE THINGS”) it would still appear on their plate as I’d be preparing it for their sibling. They like most fruit and vegetables but if something looks a bit new, it is eyed with much suspicion.
There is though, one never ever fail dish. Sausages.
They will eat them come rain or shine, morning or evening. I’ve tried to limit their intake ever so slightly so we do have some variety (!) but mostly, they are on our menu plan once a week.
In this Marmalade Sticky Sausages Bake I’ve kept things simple. Perfect for after school dinner, when it’s cold and grey and comfort food that can be popped into the oven is required. This also makes a delicious leftovers lunch the next day.
What food will your children always eat, without fail?
Tips for making the Marmalade Sticky Sausages Bake:
- I use bags of casserole mix for ease, but of course you can prepare your own veg. I tend to use one with onions, carrots, swede and leeks in. This are available in most supermarkets and are a super shortcut.
- Use good quality marmalade if you can, I love Tiptree Orange (available here on Amazon): Tiptree Orange Marmalade
- If you’re cooking for young children, omit the salt.
- Don’t mention the marmalade to the children! They will love it to eat but, if I told them what it was? Probably not!

Yummy recipe! We adore sausages here and always love to find new ways to eat them.
I am so pleased to see the addition of marmalade. My all time favourite sandwich is sausage and marmalade, but whenever I eat one, it draws stares of hideousness as if I am eating a baby! But it is such a great pairing….. x
Really tasty, and simple to set up and cook.
