Where do you find the time?

I'm a stay at home mom so when my 1 year is taking her nap or keeping herself busy & my 6 year old is in school, I get on and look for recipes that sound good to me.

Most of the recipes I find do not take long at all to prep/cook.

I know what you mean.
I've slowed down the cooking b/c we're trying to moveso I have been eating more frozen foods(Lean Cuisine, Weight Watchers, Healthy Choice). I am addicted to Lean Cuisine's Steak, Cheddar & Mushroom Panini. It is so tastey even though I don't like mushrooms. I just pick them out.
I was indeed the one that posted the sole. The fish roll-ups is very good too and so fast and easy to make.


My 6 year old is so very easy to care for. She has been that way since she was a baby. She has a great imagination and can play by her own for hours but my 1 year.... she's the total opposite. She will sit on the floor and will point to the floor to sit you down next to her to play. We're usually outside jumping on the trampoline or swinging.

I've slowed down the cooking b/c I am in the middle of huge home improvement projects! Same type of problem you have, I'm sure! :-)

I also plan salad-based dinners a few times a week. That way I can make a big, basic green salad on Sunday or Monday, use it as a side dish or lunch a few times a week and add to it to make a dinner. This week I did a chicken taco salad (chicken breasts w/seasoning, green onion, cilantro, tomatoes, red bell pepper, reduced fat cheese, a sm. dollop of guacamole and lots of salsa) and an italian salad (reduced fat provolone & mozz, kalamata olives thinly sliced, red onion, mushrooms, orange bell pepper, a few slices ea. black pepper salami and prosciutto julienned.) I don't need much of the meats (or olives) for the italian salad so I used regular. A little goes a long way. I just wanted a bit of the flavor. I do use a very small amount of italian dressing, as well.

I have three kids a six year old a 16 months old and 2month old well as you can imagine the bigger ones are fussy They each have to have something different the 15mnth old curently will only eat fruit and mac and chesse my older one is going through a soup stage and my husband god love him is one of those naturally fit people. He eats what he wants when he wants and you could still do laundry on his stomach and he never excersises. He loves his meat and potatoes. So needless to say i feel like a restaraunt especially when my meals get technical.

Made a great East Indian Soup last night
1 large onion chopped
16 okra
1 super large tomato
1 jar of madras sauce
1/2 cup water
simmer on low for about 40 minutes
serve in deep bowls with toast
My husband raved about it
With the Madras being very hot and spicy it seemed to fill you up
If the Madras sauce is too hot try a Korma one
If you cannot or do not like Okra try cauliflower or some other veg.
I think I will make this again as it was super quick and easy
