Dinner Ideas

We need something that can be made in 45 minutes or less when we get home from work. We have a crock pot and all the standard kitchen gadgets. All we lack is inspiration….Here’s what’s in our standard rotation - any other ideas?

  • Grilled cheese and tomato soup
  • Veggie omelet with biscuits
  • Pasta with red sauce
  • Pizza delivery
  • Thai food delivery
  • Indian food delivery

We definitely need help! :)

My cousin Maggie seems to have some ideas… yum!

    One of our favorites is macaroni and cheese.

    With practice, I think it will be possible to make a nice, reasonably nutritionally sound casserole in 45 minutes. I’m also a big fan of having something ready right when we walk in the door- sliced apples and cheese, for instance.

    Tacos make a frequent appearance at our house when we’re pushed for time. I am also a big fan of crock pot meals. I make corned beef and cabbage in the crock pot a lot (which means reubens with the leftovers — 2 meals in one!). I also like starting with some kind of mix, but dressing it up a bit, like Zataran’s red beans and rice from a box, but adding sausage and fixing a veggie. (Admittedly, none of these options are terribly healthy…)
