    White turkey chili
    Italian sausage soup
    Roasted root vegetables with chicken sausage
    Chicken enchilada rice back
    Chicken and Dumplings
    Grilled pork chops, steak, chicken, salmon, and sea bass
    Spaghetti

    I'm in a rut right now though, but turkey chili sounds so good!

    Pasta al forno, taco casserole, chicken parm, buffalo chicken/chicken Caesar wraps/salad. These get boring but they're quick, easy and can get two meals out of most.

    This thread is giving me so many ideas, although, I should probably get a crockpot at some point.

    Now that the weather is cooling down:

    Braised white beans with sausages
    Roasted broccoli often, DS will eat it willingly
    Home made chicken noodle soup
    Zucchini pancakes
    Quinoa pancakes with a veggie
    Turkey meatballs with roasted tomatoes
    Spaghetti and meatballs
    Spinach and veggie lasagne
    Tacos/wraps
    Baked spinach with a grain like spelt or kamut or quinoa

    For fast: pesto pasta with peas

    Spag Bol
    Fish and Chips
    Steak and salad
    Various curries
    Roast dinner

    Pretty boring, really.

    @looch: toddler approved. It's a huge hit in our house & it's a crockpot meal too!

    @Mrs. Jump Rope: excellent!

    I just made a huge list of ideas, most of them from this thread!

    Glad I found this thread, it's giving me lots of great ideas! I much prefer one-pot meals when I can get away with it. I love making curries (with rice and naan from Trader Joes), pasta dishes, salads, turkey chili, or some kind of baked salmon. I like to plan a menu each week so I'm always hunting on Pinterest for new options.

    @Imabee: I'm a big fan of one pot meals too!

    SO many great ideas in this thread!

    I really, really appreciate how attainable most of these ideas are for a WOHM household with a toddler who starts the meltdown process about a minute after we get home. And the honesty from everyone admitting to chicken nuggets, etc. is awesome. I so often feel like I have to justify or make excuses for feeding C "easy" meals that aren't homemade.

    In rotation at our house now (admittedly not much):
    Chili
    Rotisserie chicken
    Tortellini with some sort of sauce
    Scrambled eggs
    Hot dogs (C was on a meat strike for the longest time and this was the ONLY form of meat she would eat.)
    Tacos
    Tuna sandwiches
    Tomato soup and grilled sandwiches
