[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this isn't for everyone, but I make large portions of meals that we can eat two days in a row.  This saves me the time of having to make and freeze portions for later use, but it has the same effect -- two meals in one.  I get to telework one day (tues) per week, so on that day I have time to make a meal. I can make a meal Sunday. That leaves only one other weeknight when I have to make a meal. I generally make that one the least time-intensive. So, for example, our last week was:

Sunday: Moroccan veggie and lentil stew
Monday: Same
Tuesday: Asparagus, chard and mushroom pasta
Wed: Same
Thursday: Ecuadorian potato soup with avocado
Friday: Same (except we actually took the soup leftovers for lunch and ended up getting takeout tonight. But we *could* have had it for dinner). [/quote]

We do a version of this but skip a night before having left-overs.  
Chicken Sunday night, left overs on Tuesday, might turn it into quesadillas
Pizza Monday night, leftovers on Wed.

In your case, you will probably need a pretty heavy snack before activities & then a light dinner after.[/quote]
