We love Spaghetti Carbonara and recently tried it topped with a soft cooked egg, very decadent.
Another pasta recipe that we enjoy is Giada De Laurentiis Creamy Orzo with Prosciutto and Peas.
Also Ree Drumond’s Bow-tie Skillet Chicken Alfredo with Spinach and
Cherry Tomatoes. - I used a roasted chicken picked up at a grocery store.
Nigella Lawson’s Sheet Pan Spanish Chicken - I get to enjoy a tea while the oven does the baking.
If all else fails tacos can make it on the table in a relative hurry.
I try to menu plan and cook extra so if tacos then I cook extra meat for either lasagna or Cottage Pie. Also make extra rice for stir fries, extra potatoes etc.
When I have my stuff together then I spend one day cooking in the kitchen for the entire week.
P.S.
Wiener Schnitzel, jarred red cabbage with apples (liquid cooked off in a pan to take the edge off) and leftover roast potatoes.
Budget Byte$ Beef and Cabbage Stir Fry is always a crowd pleaser.
