Finding meals that are easy to make and kid approved can be difficult, especially during busy weeks. Recently, Jude started Taekwondo and we go two times a week which means our food prep need a re-haul. I am a One Dish Meal lover and my husband is a meat and potatoes kind of guy but I hardly every prepare meat and potatoes until now! I tried a new recipe a couple of weeks ago and man it was good!!

What One Dish Meals do you enjoy preparing for your family?
This looks yummy…AND easy!! Two of my favorite things when planning meals!!
What a great dish – I love it when I don't have a lot to clean up afterwards. I like making quiches. they're simple easy and so customizable.
I haven't made any one dish meals for ages but have to try this one out for sure! It's good to know that this recipe is kid approved too! My daughter loves chicken and potatoes, but green beans not so much.
That looks so easy to prepare and something my family would love. My husband usually cook meat and chicken so I'll pass this along to him.
This is good stuff. A delicious and fast meal. Your right sometimes we are in a rush and want an easy child approve meal.
I make something really similar to this with pork chops and garlic! So yummy, so timesaving! Saving this one too!
