What is the easiest thing to cook for dinner?

This depends on whom you ask of course but to me my go to’s are my 5 ingredient chili that you can make in a slow cooker or pressure cooker and one pot spaghetti. For both they are both thrown together in 1 pot and cooked together which means less to clean and the flavors can really meld together.

What’s a good idea for dinner tonight?

2 other favorite meals we can throw together quickly beyond spaghetti and chili would be our 3 ingredient sloppy joes or anything off of our long list of easy ground beef recipes roundup. Both are cheap and kids always ask for seconds so win win.

What can you make for supper when you don’t want to cook?

I mean anything you can fit between two slices of bread is a win. No cooking involved and the choices go well beyond peanut butter and jelly y’all! Try switching it up with tuna inside, use up leftover meat chopped up with mayo and relish for a new high protein sandwich option. Or easy recipes for dinner can = a bowl of cereal, I mean, make the kids happy. ;)
