It seems like a fair number of folks here have kids to feed every night in addition to studying and working, so I thought it might be interesting to share our favore quick and easy recipes for the busy nights. My skills in the kitchen put me firmly in the "microwave chef" category, but I do try to keep things balanced and nutritious for the 2 growing boys who eat like linebackers. Its just so hard with so little time!
I'll go first with a cottage pie recipe. Takes about 20 minutes and the kids eat it with no fuss.
Grab a pie plate and fill it with 1 layer cooked ground turkey seasoned with salt, pepper and garlic. Next layer is a layer of whatever veggies are on hand, and a top layer of mashed potatoes. Heat in the oven until warm and serve with gravy.
