25+ THIRTY MINUTES WEEK NIGHT MEALS – School starts back for my boys on August 5. That’s way too early. We didn’t have enough Summer? Did you?

I know it’s different around the country Generally, we get out the third or fourth week in May and typically start back the first or second week in August. The kids get about eight weeks off. When I was in school, we got 12 weeks off! My boys are envious of that. That’s about the only thing they’re jealous of though, they can’t imagine life without the Wii, DS or Pokemon! Sometimes I tell them I didn’t have cable TV and cartoons only played on Saturday mornings just to really freak them out!

So, school starts back and all heck breaks loose! Ballgames, homework, projects, scouts, fundraising (bleck :p, fundraising! – I wish I had a dime for every dollar I fundraised for someone else!! I need to fundraise for myself!!) Ok, sorry, so I put together these recipes (and they’re not from Rachael Ray!) for your busy week nights. I hope this helps ease the transition back to school!

  1. Thank you so much! We don’t go back until the 21st, but we are also moving this coming week. Which also means registering for school, plus my oldest is going to 1st, so I’m pretty new to this all still. I’m going to come back and read those other posts as well.
    Thanks for sharing on Foodie Friday

    1. It’s tough on us too, I still get sad when mine go back. It gets so crazy for us with activities and projects. Hope your move and school goes well for you!

  2. Yes, August 5th is way to early!! I officially go back to work at my school tomorrow, so I do feel your pain. Thank you for these simple dinner ideas. I certainly need some ideas to help make my nights easier too!!

  3. This is a great round-up, Paula! While I have no children to send to school (apparently it’s a stressful as well as blissful time of the year for moms? hehe) I have myself to gear up for the internship which starts in 3 weeks. I’m not going to have as much time to cook as I do now so I’m def going to check out some of these recipes! Thank you!

  4. What a great roundup! Perfect for the start of the fast approaching school year 🙂
    I wanted to invite you my weekly linky party, Share Your Stuff Tuesdays at: Hope to see you there!

    1. Thanks goes to you guys!! Awesome recipes from everyone! And, btw, I don’t know how you do all that you do with little ones!!!

  5. That is too funny. ..my kids reacted the same way when I told them about (that exact way) how we grew up! I love the format you used for all of these fabulous and fast recipes. Thank you for including my Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad. (= Pinning and sharing!

    1. Carrie, it was so much quicker to put together. I was anxious to see if readers like it, but it’s had tons of views so I don’t think it bothers them.

  6. Great round-up of fantastic dinner ideas, Paula! A great answer to the question – what’s for dinner?? Thanks for sharing – pinning and buffering! Have a great Tuesday!

    1. Thank you Cindy! I have to have my dinners planned once school starts and things get crazy :/ stresses me if I don’t.
