Back-To-School season is such a crazy time at my house. We are all adjusting to school schedules, sports and other extracurricular activity times. Afternoons go by in a blur and it’s suddenly time for dinner, which I haven’t even had the chance to start cooking. Am I the only one who finds herself in this situation?
I need quick and easy dinner ideas this time of year. Anything that can be ready to serve in about 30 minutes is perfect. That’s where CansGetYouCooking.com recipes can really save the day. I picked out five favorite dinners to help us all out when we are short on time in the kitchen. All five of these simple dinner recipes can be prepped and on the table in about half and hour or less. Give them a try!
