9 Quick & Easy Meals

Last week, we talked about freezing meals for when baby comes. Or just for any old night when you really just don't feel like being in the kitchen.

So, what if you don't have a ton of room in the freezer to make meals ahead? Then what? Or... what about those nights that you, once again, don't feel like being in the kitchen and you've already raided your freezer stash? What are good options for getting in and out of the kitchen relatively quick without a huge fuss?

Below are 9 meal ideas that are simple to throw together and don't leave you hanging out in the kitchen stirring a pot or chopping veggies when you'd much rather be oh... taking a nap.


I will say that Adam went through the archives and complied this list. So not only is it "husband approved", but chances are (unless all someone knows how to do is boil water, and then I'm sorry, but your best hope is some boxed mac n cheese), they can most likely pull these dishes together. That is if you can sweet talk them and bat your eyes until they huff and puff then make their way into the kitchen.

Now, you may be scratching you head a little bit at having lasagna on a "quick" list. But, it's a dish most people are familiar with making and could probably brown some ground beef and boil noodles in their sleep... so it makes the list. And because it's fantastically delicious. You could also add it to your freezer stash if you are so inclined.

So click away below, friends, then get back to that wonderful nap idea.
