My Kids’ Favorite Go-To Dinner
You know those staple dinners that you know you can whip up in a rush in 10 minutes or less? The ones where you have all the ingredients in your pantry or fridge at any given time?

It’s a rollercoaster....” Instantly several seasoned parents were quick to step in with messages of “just wait!” And “it will get worse!” You guys. Why do we do this?
