[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If the 20 minute turn-around is every night, the first thing that I'd try to do is cut back on activities.[/b] We needed this kind of turn-around twice a week over the summer. I always planned a crockpot meal for those nights. Dinner was done as soon as we got home -- faster than grabbing fast food -- and so we could immediately start eating. We have some good cookbooks with recipes that take 20-30 minutes max for the other nights.[/quote] Agree. If it's on most weekdays, it's too much, OP. I can't even eat in 20, let alone kids, and let alone often. Plus activities afterward? No. What about a fruit snack with some hummus or tapenade on the side, and then the whole family eats together after the activities? Sorry, not exactly what you had asked, I guess.[/quote]
