Dinner

Pan Fried Pork Chops with Applesauce & Simple Salad

When I’m planning for the week, I often try for one or two “staples” or meals that stay on permanent rotation in the menu because I know my family loves them and everyone will eat them. Kids seem to like predictability and mine are more likely to be adventurous and try new foods some days if they know that on…

Grilled Steak & Veggies

Dinners are pretty basic in our house, especially during the week. By the time we get home from school/work, we have an hour to get food on the table, homework done, kids bathed (occasionally) and off to bed.

Today definitely felt like a Monday.  I had a late client, totally didn't a chance to plan for dinner, and when the kids got home, I saw that I was approximately 20 minutes away from a nuclear-hunger-induced kid meltdown. Tonight's dinner took 20 minutes from the time I got the ingredients from the fridge until we were all seated at…

Quick & Easy Beef Stir Fry

Let me paint you a picture from my night. My husband was working, so I picked up the kids at afterschool and we were home at 5:30pm. “I’m hunnnnnnnngry,” cried the middle one. Usually on the nights he is gone, (he’s a firefighter so is gone for 24 hours at a time) I try and do a good amount of…
