4 Easy Family Dinners To Serve Your Family This Week:
1. Crispy chicken parmesan served with mozzarella and tomatoes
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Then use a small bowl mix 1.5 cups of breadcrumbs with 1/2 a cup of parmesan cheese and a few shakes of salt and pepper. Next, dip each serving of chicken breast into a second bowl which contains 2 beaten eggs and then dip each piece of chicken breast into your bowl of bread crumbs and parmesan cheese.
Place your chicken breasts in the oven and cook each side of your chicken breasts for 4 minutes. Next, place a large slice of mozzarella on top of each piece of chicken and cook each side of your chicken for a further 10 minutes.
Lastly pan fry one tomato per chicken breast in a small skillet, which you’ll place on top of each piece of chicken breast. Serve with a side salad.
2. Open bacon and avocado sandwiches
If your children can’t resist the smell of bacon, they’ll love the taste of open bacon and avocado sandwiches. Simply set your oven to bake and preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, bake your strips of bacon for 15 minutes.
Next toast each piece of bread by brushing olive oil onto each side of your bread and toasting each side of your bread for 5-10 minutes. Lastly, top each piece of toasted bread with fresh avocado and your freshly baked bacon. If your children don’t mind the taste of lemon, you may want to squeeze a bit of lemon juice on top of each open sandwich. Season to taste.
3. Hamburger style casserole
Begin by preheating your oven to approximately 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Next cook 1 and 1/2 cups of dry macaroni. Next, use a small fry pan to lightly brown one finely diced onion and 1 pound of ground beef. Season with 2 teaspoons of chili powder and a few shakes of salt and pepper.
Your next step should be to mix 1 can of cream of mushroom soup and 1 can of tomato soup in a large bowl. Next, add your ground beef mixture into your soup mixture. Place your cooked macaroni into a large, rectangle baking dish and pour your ground beef and soup mixture through your macaroni. Lastly, sprinkle your choice of grated cheese over your hamburger style casserole and cook your mixture for roughly 30-40 minutes, until browned.
4. Burrito bowl
If your family loves Mexican food or Mexican inspired takeaways such as Chipotle or Taco Bell, they’ll be sure to love fuss-free burrito bowls. Simply place shredded chicken, Mexican style rice, and beans into each family member’s bowl. Next, top each bowl off with diced avocado, sour cream, onion, lettuce, and tomato. Lastly, drizzle a bit of lemon juice and black pepper over each portion.
