So, we’re in the middle of the crazy, busy holiday season, and between the baking, shopping and wrapping, I’m usually wondering what to cook for dinner at the end of the day. Please tell me I’m not alone.

Instead of getting creative in the kitchen, I’ve been making my favorite tried and true, quick and easy meals. These sandwiches and one dish wonders are life savers these days. They’re simple, easy and take about 30 minutes to make. It just doesn’t get much better than that, and these dinners are so much cheaper than ordering out.

So, back away from the drive thru, put down the phone, and make these easy quick fix dinners instead!
