It's dinner time and I face what is a daily struggle. What can I prepare that will satiate my husband and myself, and that the kids will eat. To be specific, what Sebby will eat. Quincy will eat anything. One of the biggest is challenges too is that so many recipes serve 4-6 people (as in 4-6 adults) and the portions are huge. This is probably why one of our biggest go-tos is pasta. It's quick … [Read more...]
