what is your daily dinner meal plan?

I am finding it harder and harder for me to cook when I get home because the baby is getting bigger and my feet are hurting...

And its getting harder and harder for me to come up with meals....

Anyone care to share what they usually eat?

Thanks guys! Just looking for a quick fix for the next month till Bean comes <3

We do lots of grilled chicken with a salad or one of those frozen steam in the microwave vegetables or sometimes a fresh vegetable like broccoli, asparagus...something like that.

We do turkey chili turkey meatballs with whole wheat pasta, turkey burgers ort urkey meatloaf with baked fries- lots of ground turkey!

I went to Trader Joes over the weekend and got lots of yummy stuff so we're incorporating that into our meals too. Nothing that takes over 30 minutes to make!

Re: what is your daily dinner meal plan?

I try to make a big meal on Sunday that will last us for 3 nights. Sometimes I get lucky enough to not have to cook again until Thursday!

Like I'll do a lasagna (either red sauce or chicken/spinach/white), spaghetti pie with sauteed peppers and onions, spaghetti and meatballs, meatloaf pizzaole with egg noodles, chili, pulled pork, mac and cheese, things that last a long time.

Then for weeknight fill-in meals I do a lot of mexican, either chicken or skirt steak with a lemon or lime and spice marinade, yellow rice and black beans, or chicken fingers and fries, or a pizza and a salad, whole grain pasta with chicken sausage and broccoli rabe, or broccoli cheddar white bean soup and french dips...most of my frozen 'quick' items are from Trader Joe's or the Waldbaum's Greenway Organic line, so it's healthy. I usually always have a bowl of salad tossed to go with all our meals.

make sandwiches? - turkey and swiss, philly cheese steak is even easy.

Even making steak is quick, marinate it a night before and all you have to do is grill it, i dont even go outside to grill it, i have a stove top grill i bought, whip it up with some broccoli/aspargus/corn. etc

Anything with chicken breast/chicken cutlets is easy...my husband lovesss...a breaded chicken breast, pan fried, with some veggies, its healthy, lean and easyy to make probably takes like 15 minutes. I ususally make lemon butter suace with that from scratch which is easy too!!...

Also pasta's?

Good luck...or maybe you and DH can hang in there and just eat out for a month...

It's a little involved, I'll find the written recipe and send it to you because it requires exact measurements for the bechemel.
