10 Quick Family Dinner Recipes

What to have for dinner causes disagreements in 50% of households (probably). It’s always so tasking and difficult to figure out what to make, especially after a long day at work. Here are some quick and easy recipes that you could make ahead or are even quick enough to make as soon as you get home to help take the stress off your long days.

  1. Baked Spaghetti via Delish. Simple to make ahead and pop in the oven as soon as you get home, and a great twist on a classic spaghetti. 
  2. Grilled Cheese Pizza via Pillsbury. This might be the best combination. Ever. 
  3. Cheesy Taco Pasta via Tipbuzz. A cheesy, gooey, dinner that only takes 20 minutes to make. 
  4. Sheet Pan Fajitas via No. 2 Pencil. I’m a HUGE fan and proponent of sheet pan meals. Throw everything on a cookie sheet and bake. 
  5. Ranch Pork Chops and Potatoes via Jo Cooks. This one can be made separate or also on a sheet pan but it’s an easy dinner packed full of flavor. 
  6. Balsamic Steak Sheet Pan Dinner via A Spicy Perspective. Another sheet pan – see something in common here? Seriously though – sheet pans makes so much less work when cooking and is perfect for a busy day dinner. 
  7. 20 Minute Garlic Beef and Broccoli Lo Mein via The Recipe Critic. Tender beef, noodles, and vegetables in only 20 minutes. 
  8. Grilled Chicken Tacos with Bacon via Favorite Family Recipes. There aren’t many people that don’t like tacos. This recipe looks easy and tasty! 
  9. Easy Shepherds Pie via Cincy Shopper. I made this recipe the other morning and refrigerated it until I was ready to pop it in the oven for dinner. So easy and very tasty. 
  10. Grilled Key Lime Chicken Wings via This Silly Girl’s Chicken. Literally just marinade and grill when ready. Super easy!
