[quote=Anonymous]I make 2-3 large dinners on Sunday during our son's nap. Think lasagna, soup, pasta dishes, quiche, etc. These take us through the week. This week it was gnocci with broccoli and mushrooms and beans/rice. I often double recipes. I also make some sort of breakfast that will freeze for the week. Pancakes, mini quiche, two ingredient oatmeal/banana cookies, smoothies etc. We get home from work at 6 and it takes about 3 minutes to microwave dinner. I also keep frozen veggies on hand. They are quick to steam to go along with a meal. Fresh fruit and yogurt with every meal as well. We shop on Saturdays (as a family-makes it more fun) and I definitely meal plan. Eating healthy is a major priority for me and this works well. It takes just a little planning, but it is so worth it being able to walk in the door and not be in a frenzy about dinner.[/quote]
