Football Mom needs fast meals!

[Lauren]

My 9 year old son started playing football this year. As a working mom, with a family of four to feed, I need recipes for fast meals. Help! I don't have a crock pot, but am interested in getting one. So, if you have some good recipes to share, I would appreciate it.

Try the Ham and Swiss Loaded Potatoes recipe from April 2000. It was listed as their under 30 minute recipe.

Also think about ones you can make up the night before and just cook when you get home - such as stratas, lasagnas, casseroles, etc. During the warmer months you can also have made up pastas that are good cold/room temp.

Don't know how your kids are with fish - but grilled fish can often be very quick, tastey and low fat.
