[quote=Anonymous]Before he comes home, precook chicken tenders until they are lightly cooked (it will cook more later when he's home).  When he gets home, put a chicken tender on a tray, put a couple of scoops of salsa on the chicken, put a slice of cheeze (mozzarella and monterey jack work, but go with something the kid likes) on top.  Put in the toaster oven or oven for about 10-15 minutes until the cheese melts and the chicken and salsa warms up.  If he doesn't like salsa, you can put spaghetti sauce on too.

Tacos:  Cook and shred chicken.  Dice up some asparagus, some red pepper, some tomatoes, and shred lettuce.  When he comes home, get some whole wheat mini-tortillas (the smaller/medium size) put shredded chicken, and diced veggies into wrap, put a little taco sauce on and roll up for a quick meal.  you can heat the tortillas and chicken if you want it to be hot.  If he objects to the red peppers or tomatoes you can leave them off, but often mixed in with the other flavors that they likes, children will eat these things.

Does he eat eggs?  My one niece who hated veggies would eat veggies when chopped and cooked into an omelet or frittata.  And those are fast and easy to make for the after school meal.  You can also use olive oil instead of butter or vegetable oil to make the omelet/frittata healthier.
