[quote=Anonymous]It's not so bad.  I had no notion of cooking when I had my first child and decided to stay at home.  I started with easy recipes and asking my mom to show me how to make my favorite dishes.  Costco has awesome salad kits.  One day you can bake pork chops and serve them with a big salad.  Or make a salad and top it with grilled or roasted chicken (both super easy).  Pasta is a winner also, just find a sauce you like and serve it with a cucumber salad and garlic bread.  Soup is also simple.  I make soup once a week with any veggies I have in the fridge (carrots, celery, cauliflower, spinach, peppers, cabbage, etc, etc.)  I then add leeks and pureed cilantro and let the veggies cook with some type of bouillon or stock for flavor.  Then, when everything is nice and cooked I add a bit of small pasta, a bit of quinoa and a can of whatever beans I have.  I cook for an additional 10 minutes and it is delicious.  I serve it with garlic bread and avocado slices.  You can also sprinkle some white cheese (fresh cheese) on top.  It really shouldn't take you more than an hour to do a meal from beginning to end.  You'll want to feed your child healthy as he gets older.  I cook 3-4 times per week, we eat out or do something fast like dumplings/nuggets the rest of the days.[/quote]
