[quote=Anonymous]When your kids are that small, you’re in survival mode. I agree with others to find 7 meals that are easy that your family likes, and just rotate through them. I love to cook, but I finally got over the idea that I needed to be planning and serving creative 5 star meals. I was doing it for me, not them. My DC would happily eat a rotation of spaghetti and tacos. I realize that teaching your DH to cook sounds like more work than it’s worth, but when I had a stressful job and DC was young, my DH (who isn’t what I would call a “cook”) would often put fish/steak/pork chops/chicken on the grill and throw a bag of Trader Joe’s veggies in the microwave or make a salad for dinner. It wasn’t gourmet, but it was relatively healthy, and it was such a blessing to have dinner in process when I got home from work. In other words, maybe figure out if there is something simple he can do to take the load off of you at least every once in a while? [/quote]
