[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forget the recipes. Keep it simple. Just one starch. One protein. One veggie. That’s all! Sheet pan it. Grill it. Saute it. Whatever. But if you keep it simple, it’s easy and nutritious. [/quote] This!! I SAH and it is still hard OP, especially as kids get older and they all have multiple things going on and places to be from 2:30p-7pm. I pretty much follow what the PP suggests. My kids prefer raw veggies so I can do those ahead of time: slice up some peppers, carrots, fresh green beans. Then I either make rice, a bunch of baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, fried polenta, buttered noodles. Meat that can be done in the crockpot is great for extra busy afternoons. Otherwise, I make meat that cooks quickly like shaved steak, pan cooked thin sliced chicken breasts with a simple pan sauce, fish in foil packets with some lemon and herbs. [/quote]
