[quote=Anonymous]Struggling with meals. I telework 3/5 days and would like to have dinner on the table when we get home. But the problem is that I have 50 minutes of picking up the kids from practice, daycare and sports. Every day is like some kind of nightmare with my 3 kids melting down on me demanding food at exactly the moment we walk in the door. Even simple meals or prep take 15-20 min. My toddler is straight up savage and it kind of ruins my whole day, every day. I've tried giving snacks, but that just means they won't eat dinner. What can I do that will still be good 50 min later? I've tried having things read that I bake (like a quiche that I pop in the oven) but that still is 15-20 min. Crockpot or soup is all I've come up with, but my kids don't really like soup. I wish there was a magic food pill like the Jetsons got! [/quote]
