I AM A WORKING MOM OF 4: Any favorite, easy after-work dinners?

I have been making the same pasta and salad combo everyday that the kids are starting to complain about! My energy can not catch up with all I need to do in a day. What are some easy bulk dinners you’re able to make after working all day????

  1. try MCDONALDS LOL.. in all seriousness, i’ve been collecting bags of frozen vegetables and food when there are sales and that has been an easy grab whenever I have absolutely no energy to make chicken tenders for my kids. Also: TWO FRIDGES. We also have an air fryer that has been great for the house whenever they are hungry.

  2. one pot chicken! Dredge a huge bag o chicken with flour and fry, throw in cream of mushroom for a savory, smooth mushroom chicken dish. I like to make rice but if you’re more of a pasta family, I get it.

  3. Maybe have the kids learn to help prep while you’re away at work? You won’t believe how easy it is to cook rice or make some pasta or wash vegetables before you come home, then all you really need to do is spend 30 min doing the rest. The kids will probably love to help!

  4. My favorite thing to work on…dinner! I love figuring out fast and healthy alternatives for my family when I get home. I set up a pantry and create a weekly meal plan. Grilled chicken and steamed vegetables are a go-to for our household. Rich in nutrients and energy for my kid’s brains, and I always give them a spoonful of ice cream by the end of it! They love it.
