Spring has sprung around here! We have welcomed sunshine back today and I can’t believe what a difference it makes!! I hope that you are getting to enjoy spring where you are. When it comes to what to make for dinner at our house I like to keep it simple. My goal is to have dinner on the table, if it is overly complicated then it becomes frustrating.

If you are wondering what to make for dinner- try these tips
- Simplify your meal planning- Try Home Chef – here is a $35 off credit! If you decide to give them a try, I would love to hear your experience! We use them for 2 meals a week! Those are 2 meals I do not have to plan OR grocery shop for
- Cook in batches- cook up a bunch of taco meat- divide it out and freeze. Each week you have a meal already made- just heat up in the crockpot during the day!
- Sit down to meal plan each week- then you only have to make the decision 1 time what you are having for dinner, instead of 7 times.
