[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Are the kids very young? I can’t even imagine a night when we don’t have sports commitments. [/b]I would love grilled steak and asparagus or broccoli and maybe some roasted potatoes. I wouldn’t be thrilled with a taco bar or soup. [/quote]

This doesn't help OP at all. Not everyone has multiple kids in sports every night. And many families would love to be invited over for dinner with kids. There are so many posts on DCUM of people who wish to be invited to things. If you are asked you can politely say no but don't try and dissuade OP from hosting.

Here are some ideas:

Mediterranean:

Chicken Skewers served with roasted vegetables, a simple buttered orzo (like butter noodles), pita bread, hummus, and tomato and cucumber salad.

If they are young kids you can keep some grape tomatoes and sliced cucumbers on a separate plate.

Mexican

Fajitas with chicken, peppers and onions
Have some cheese quesadillas ready for any picky eaters
Mexican corn salad
Spanish rice

More Casual:

Cornbread
Chili with lots of toppings on the side
Spinach Salad
Mac and cheese
