I have a house of picky eaters so my go to meal is one that is plain and simple so everyone will eat. I always have shredded rotisserie chicken in the freezer so I will defrost that and whip up some potatoes and a salad or veggie.
And for the third separate comment, I’m following you both now.
Our go to meal is mac and cheese…for extra nutrition, I add sweet potato puree! It makes it more orange, but I tell the kids its all the different cheeses that I put in! They love it! And they’re eating veggies without a fuss!!
My go to meal is homemade pizza. I always have the ingredients I need without having to go to the store.
My go to meal has recently become Shrimp & Chicken Stir Fry! So easy to just cook some rice, throw veggies & meats in the skillet & add some seasonings & soy sauce. Super quick & easy & delicious!
I would so love this cookbook!
I make homemade mac and cheese using Betty Crocker’s white sauce recipe and adding 2 cups cheddar cheese. Steam some broccoli and call it dinner!
My go to meal is taco salad. My boys love it and it’s super easy and fast to make!
Pizza.
But homemade, although I use Pillsbury canned pizza dough, I plop on BBQ sauce, cooked chicken (rotisserrie if in a real time crunch!), pre-cooked bacon, sliced red onions, and throw on mozzarella. Yum…
Black bean soup and quesadillas are my go to meal.

Pasta and grilled chicken. It’s fast and tasty!
My familiy’s go to dinner is my home-canned stew, salad and pilsbury biscuits….takes less than 20 minutes and is super yummy! I would love to win the cookbook….summer is coming and a very busy time for us—wouldn’t mind some ideas on making meals ahead of time. Thanks for the giveaway!
Chicken spaghetti!
Well my go to dinner is actually breakfast!! We always have eggs, toast and sausage on han!
my go to meal is pasta…and any either tomato sauce, olive oil and garlic with a veggie, or a fat free alfredo.
My go to meal is breakfast for dinner.
I always end up making homemade mac and cheese and cream of mushroom chicken. Way easy and quick!
I’m now following Jane’s blog and I already follow your great blog!
If I’m lucky, leftovers. If I’m not, SOP (my parents’ term for Seat Of the Pants) pasta. I can always find something to put on pasta.
My go to meal is a not anything I have a specific name for but a mexican flavored hot dish. Egg noodles, black beans, corn, stewed tomatoes with green chiles, hamburger throw in some onions and spices for flavor and a little cheese on top. Takes me about 20-30 minutes and my boys love it.
go to meal…pasta!
Our go-to-dinner is almost always omelets loaded up with veggies. Not only is it fast, but it’s also very healthy!
My go to meal is of course, spaghetti. My family loves it and it’s easy!!

I’m a spaghetti and meatballs (or meat sauce) person too. I don’t eat red meat, so it’s turkey meatballs. Fresh baked Italian bread from the store bakery, Dei Fratelli or Mids jarred sauce, salad in a bag, good to go in very little time.
Our go to meal is Crispy Chicken Salad w/ Raspberry Vinaigrette- everyone loves it and I can use frozen popcorn chicken to make a normal salad more filling!
