[quote=Anonymous]Can you give us an example of your time line? Do the meals need to be ready to just warm up? So you are essentially cooking 4-5 days worth of dinners on a Sunday. Of course that takes the whole day. I have a 2 and a 4 year old. My DH and I cook after they go to bed (so we eat at around 8pm, which I don't love). We feed them at 5:30pm leftovers from the night before. So last night DH and I had salmon, rice and brocoli and the kids will eat that today for dinner. This works well for us right now. I generally get home with both kids around 4:45pm. My DH gets home around 5:15. My youngest needs to eat at 5:30, or I would maybe try to cook a family meal each night. We do that on the weekends now, have family dinner both nights at 6pm. The 2 year old just can't make it that long on weeknights.[/quote]
