[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look for “sheet pan” recipes — they usually incorporate a protein and veggie that you bake together.[/quote]

Agreed. If your family is generally of a healthy weight, look for recipes that incorporate the basics. I'm an eater from NYC who likes a LOT of variety, but for family meals, I don't think a protein, a carb, and some veg is wrong.

Sample menu for me:

Mon: Cook a whole chicken smothered in harissa with potatoes, leeks, and make a quick garlic, yogurt, lemon sauce. Top with herbs. 
Tues: Chicken goes on caesar salads for lunch. 
Tues evening: Fish night, Thaw the night before. Chilean sea bass is a favorite. Flavor rice in the rice maker and do fish en palliolotte  with asparagus, shallots, cherry tomatoes, etc. Lemon covered (squeezed and topped)
Wed: Pasta. Everyone in my family would like pasta 5x a week. I'll do it once. Favorite is jumbo shells with tons of spinach and chicken sausage.
Thurs: Steak salad, maybe pork ribs and sides, up for debate there. 
Fri: mostly Pizza[/quote]
