Super Quick Family Favorites For When You Don’t Have Time

Are you in a rush? Maybe you’ve had a busy day and you want to make sure that everyone has a tasty, warm meal waiting for them by the time dinnertime comes. Here, we’re going to look at some of the meals that you can prepare in very little time while still making sure that you have enough to feed the whole family. 

Super Quick Family Favorites For When You Don’t Have Time

Pizza with some pizzaz

You don’t need to order something super greasy and unhealthy to enjoy all of the tastes of pizza. Not only is this French Bread pizza super fancy looking it’s also healthier and easier to prepare than having to buy pizza dough and making it all from scratch. Plus, a lot of people end up finding that they really prefer the crunch and crust more than a regular pizza so it could become a new fave.

One pot spaghetti

Aside from making meals quickly, you may also want to avoid meals that ask for too much effort from you after a busy day. To that end, this one-pot spaghetti with chicken is going to be a very welcome sight indeed. It takes roughly half an hour to prepare and most of that is spent simply sitting by the pot and stirring lightly. You can’t really go wrong with a delicious spaghetti meal.

Kill it with a skillet

Being able to toss all of your ingredients into one pan or cooking appliance is going to be a bit of a theme for your easy-cook meals. A delicious skillet meal is going to give you enough space to feed the whole family and this spicy cajun sausage and rice dish is just one example of how easy it can be. Nothing much more complex than chopping up and tossing your ingredients into the skillet.

A super stir fry

If you have a craving for noodles of another kind, then a good stir fry is just as easy to prepare. This beef and broccoli stir fry recipe is just one example. Usually, all you need to have on hand is some meat, even pre-cooked meat, the noodles, a sauce or seasoning, and some healthy bits like vegetables or even nuts like cashews to throw in there. A stir fry is a great way to make use of leftover ingredients at the end of the week.

Don’t need much more than fish and beans

Want a convenient and super healthy meal that you can prepare in no time at all? Green beans and salmon are both health superfoods in their own right, and this recipe combines them in no more than 15 minutes, with enough to feed four. Salmon, in general, is super easy to prepare and if you don’t have green beans, brown rice can be the perfect sub.

These family favorites are always going to be a welcome sight on the dinner table and shouldn’t take you too much effort to prepare at all. Some of them, you can even preserve and reheat the next day to cut down on food waste.
