[quote=Anonymous]There’s no easy answer OP, but I’ve never done the cook on the weekend thing. I need my weekends. When my kids were that age I’d have nanny prep the vegetables (wash and cut) during nap. It takes maybe 15 min max. Then I’d stir fry those and do a very simple protein. Like think baked salmon, steamed chicken or tofu with simple sauce, stirfry made from the precut beef. Simple. Make soup from a huge chicken (literally just chicken with an onion cut in half and some carrots), serve as chicken noodle soup one night using frozen peas and other vegetables and as shredded chicken on noodles with broccoli and olive oil another night. With Instapot rice or pasta, dinner was in the table in ~20 minutes max. My H also cooks. We save more elaborate cooking for weekends and holidays.[/quote]
