3 Ingredient Easy Dinners for Busy Louisiana Parents

Jan 23, 2024

I am a lover of delicious food, and I think everyone in Louisiana feels the same. I am not however a lover of endless hours of cooking.

In Louisiana, people really know how to cook well, but the process of making a great meal can come at a price which is our time.

I struggle each day with my budget and decisions about what to make for dinner so I can't even imagine what you parents must go through each day when trying to figure out something delicious to serve your family.

As parents, I can only imagine your time is immensely precious. The list of things my friends with children have to do during a typical school week is mind-boggling. Parents, most of whom work, have to get their kids from school, finish their work, get their kids back and forth to extra-curricular activities, help with homework, figure out what's for dinner, and then cook it, and the list seems endless. How do you parents do it? Y'all are amazing!

I am going to share with you some recipes that I know are actually good. I am hoping that these meals will help make your life a little easier.

Let's start with a recipe that is super tasty and very easy to make. Many people are fans of the pressure cooker, and I can understand that love; however, I just LOVE slow cookers. I have 3 sizes.

Look at this simple ingredient list and how easy it is to fix and let this cook itself:

Then you can serve this on hamburger buns or slider buns.

I also make cole slaw on the side to go with this. This is an easy meal you can make on Sunday and serve on Monday.

Pour it all into your crockpot and cook it all day on low.

You can serve it with green beans and asparagus on the side, and it's a super easy meal.

You can pair this with a side of cole slaw, or even just roasted vegetables.

Here are four easy dinners to prepare that hopefully make life a little bit easier for you. I would love to see your recipes in the comments section.
