If we have a free evening, I’ll plan a more time-intensive meal, but if it’s a crazy evening with 2 kids at two locations, I’ll plan an Instant Pot or slow cooker dinner. I also buy apples in bulk from a local orchard and make Homemade Sugar-Free Applesauce to eat year-round. Thaw as needed.

Menu planning saves me time. Thanks for reading.
