Quick Dinner Ideas -

Happy Monday! Here’s this week’s edition of “Quick Dinner Ideas.”

To me, “quick” dinner ideas doesn’t necessarily mean a meal you can throw together in five minutes. To me, the quick part comes before dinner time by:

having a plan for this week’s dinners
having the ingredients on hand–(a.k.a. a trip to the grocery)

That is the biggest hurdle to jump in having a quick dinner. Once you do that, for the most part you are set!

For those nights however, that you literally may have minutes to spare, plan a few super simple dinner ideas:

light all beef kosher hot dogs (nitrate free if you can find them)
pasta
scrambled eggs
frozen veggie burgers
burritos with whatever fillings I have on hand
frozen chicken, veggie and pasta “dinner in a bag” from the freezer section of the grocery
a crockpot meal that you started in the morning and is ready at dinner time
keep raw veggies and fruits on hand to add to a less than ideal dinner
