Just because back to school has rolled around and life is a little hectic right now, doesn’t mean that family dinners should go bye-bye because of a lack of time! If anything, this is the time of year where family dinners become even more important because it just might be the only time everyone is together in one place! As you know by now, easy dinners that use minimal ingredients and can be on the table in around 30 minutes are kinda my thing! That’s why I partnered with Village Farm Tomatoes to bring you not one, but THREE easy dinners that can be on your table in a hurry any night of the week! My Mexican Tomato Soup, Grilled Tomato and Cheese Sandwiches, and Skillet Chicken with Green Beans and Tomatoes are three recipes that your whole family is going to love!

School is officially back in for most schools here in Texas and that means busier schedules for us too! The importance of easy weeknight meals is more essential than ever right now and I want you to know that I get it, and I am here for you! I love having easy and healthy pasta recipes for just the kind of nights where your kids are starving and mom and dad are exhausted! My gluten free Italian sausage and pepper pasta is just the kind of dinner that you are going to want to add in to you weekly routine that is easy enough to cook even on the busiest of nights!

Nothing makes me more proud and happy than when my toddler inhales a bowl of food that is really good for him! I made these lobster rolls yesterday and while Parks ate his deconstructed style with the bun on the side, he ate every bite of the filling and practically shoveled it in his mouth. That's how good these are guys! If you have never had a lobster roll I think you are going to love them! I will tell you that my hubby and I fell in love with lobster rolls while we were in Maine last year, and ever since coming back I kept saying I wanted to make a healthier version at home! I finally did it and put my own twist on them and the result was incredible! My lobster rolls with avocado, corn, and tomato salad are the perfect summer dinner for any night of the week!

I use our grill about 90% of the time during the summer months. I find myself cooking just about anything and everything on it from meats to veggies to pizzas! I love not having to turn on my oven and the flavor that a grill gives food is hard to beat! Skewers are one of those things that you can make out of any ingredients you have in your fridge and are a great way to use up some of your favorite summer vegetables! My grilled lemon and thyme chicken sausage and veggie skewers are so perfect for any night of the week and your whole family will love them too!

I am not good about meal planning over the weekend. I think it's because that part of my brain turns off when Friday rolls around. So Monday for me is when I plan out my week and figure out all of our meals. One thing is for sure when I am planning, and that is all of the meals have to be EASY and relatively fast too! I recently did a round-up of my top ten easy weeknight meals, and this recipe that I am sharing with you today could easily get added to that list! My spiced citrus fennel braised chicken thighs and carrots should most certainly be added to your weeknight dinner rotation!
