[quote=Anonymous]My kid doesn’t eat sandwiches, so I’m often struggling to find easy weeknight recipes that easily lend themselves to leftovers. I’m a vegetarian. DH and DS are not. So it’s a bit harder. DS is an athlete, lunch is his biggest meal by nature, and he doesn’t ever crave mid afternoon snacks so lunch has to be hearty and big enough + energizing to get him through the school afternoon and practice until 6 or so. Many things are on repeat — e.g., I’ll buy a roasted chicken and DH will break it down for me. We’ll serve some with rice, a sauce, and salad for dinner. Serve next night on pasta. Wednesday it will be maybe lentils, w quinoa, and vegetables. DH helps and enjoys cooking, but works much longer hours so I do the meal planning and just can’t think of anything interesting anymore. And as a lifelong vegetarian, I don’t have a good sense for poultry or meat dishes that are really satisfying and tasty. Any suggestions? 30-45 min or less is ideal. [/quote]
