[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure if you'd consider these to be healthy. But these are some of the things we do.

Meat sauce is quick. I cook 1/2 pound of meat in a pan (your choice - I use beef). When it's almost done cooking, add around 1/2 chopped onion and 1-2 cloves of pressed garlic. Continue to let simmer until beef is fully cooked and onions/garlic are cooked.

Add in a jar of marinara (I use Newman's) and sprinkle some Italian seasoning and basil.  Spinach mixes in well as well. Serve over pasta.

Garlic pasta - cook pasta while frying some crushed garlic and carrots (and/or other veggies) in olive oil. Toss pasta in with garlic/carrots. Serve with freshly grated parmesan. You can serve with meatballs (I make homemade and freeze), breaded chicken (bread chicken with breadcrumbs/egg/breadcrumbs and pan fry), or plain chicken if you want. If you want to mix some more veggies in - you can mix pureed veggies (such as carrots or spinach) in with the egg while making the breaded chicken.

Pizza is fairly quick and easy. I do a premade dough and top with olive oil, cheese, then spinach, feta, and tomatoes. Top with a little more cheese and bake.

Salmon in a foil lined pain - top with butter and lemon and basil. Serve with quinoa or rice.

Other quick meals we do:

Tacos or taco salad
Quesadillas
Grilled cheese (tastes good with onion/tomato)
Ravoli (there's a spinach and ricotta one we buy)
Bagel pizzas (we do as "make your own" then bake)[/quote]
