What's For Dinner?

Does this look like your family gathered around the table for  an ordinary weekday meal?


NOT...

If you are like most families today this is not your serene dinner hour.  I saw a study recently that noted how tough it is just to come up with the evening's menu.  Most moms, the research showed, don't know what they are having for dinner at 4 pm.  Whew...I'm not the only one.  Do you find yourself looking around about 4:00 wondering...hmmmmm...what's in the fridge...what could I throw together that would make this family happy...that's healthy...and that they would all eat!

I've written in the past about my love affair with the crock pot.  But, there comes a time when everyone is a little sick of that "one dish" meal. 

My friend Liz Weiss is a dietitian, mother of 2 hungry boys, and a cookbook author.  She just launched a blog that will, hopefully, put an end to my mealtime madness.

What's YOUR favorite, dinner in a flash, concoction?
Please do share.

Tonight at our house it's veggie stir fry with tofu.  I'm using precut tofu and precut veggies.  So, it should take all of 5 minutes.  My kind of weeknight meal.  Healthy, fast, and someone has done the work for me.
