These all seem good except for the paint hardener.

But seriously I'm looking up the cauliflower tacos right now, and gonna take your broccoli quiche idea maybe - quiche seems too buttery and heavy for our diets right now.

If this is op, you can make a sliced potato crust for quiche and use up what you have! I would also make matzo ball soup with the turkey stock and dill.
Not PP but I always make crustless quiche, without butter or cream. Basically just veggies, eggs and some cheese - not heavy at all.

Paint Hardner? Is that a side dish or main entree?

Why is everyone on DCUM always so critical?

I bet you've never even tried Paint Hardener. It's full of antioxidents (or maybe that's anti-oxidizers....)

I used to use corn starch to thicker things but paint hardener really gets the job done.

New Orleans Rice and beans
Chicken shawarma
Will think of something else, either vegetarian lentil soup or have sweet potatoes, so may be in oven with a protein.

Have also bone marrow in freezer that would like to use up so may make it also in the oven: this is for dh & me cause doubt the kids will eat it.

I think in future with these posts you should say how old your kids are that you want to eat this dinner. And the responders should be honest in whether their kids eat it, how old they are, and how long the dinner takes to make.

It’s just ideas for dinner…you can determine for yourself if your kids will eat it or not.

I just made the risotto - easy and delicious! I couldn't find the brown rice the recipe calls for so I used white and cooked it for less time. Thanks to those of you who always post about this blog - this was my first time using it and I'll be back!

I posted a somewhat ambitious menu above. No, my kids won't eat most of it. (8 and 11). The 11 year old will try everything and end up liking maybe 2 or 3 out of every 5 new dishes. He will pick at whatever is in the table most of the time. The 8yo will also taste everything but if she even likes one component of 5 new dishes it's a miracle. She can help herself to leftovers or something already prepared in the fridge - plain beans, fruit, yogurt. I'm not going to argue but I'm also not going to cook multiple meals.

I try to do 3 nice dinners a week, 2-3 easy crowdpleasers (boring pasta, burgers), and 1-2 take out.
