This is my biggest challenge with DH working out of town so often. We eat tons of sandwiches for quick meals, and for supper we like steamed veggies, some form of meat and rice... DD loves rice! I'm also guilty of picking up Subway far too often and sharing, she's a big fan.

Same boat as yall with DH traveling. Usually for lunch, it could leftovers, or sandwiches. LO loves those Lunchable protein packs. For dinner, I'll mostly use crockpot recipes so I don't have to deal with a crying kid while trying to cook.

French toast and fruit or grilled cheese w/ a veggie. If I have chicken handy I'll grill some up, but often that sounds like a lot of effort. We usually eat as a family for dinner, so most of our quick meals for just us is lunch.

[happymama]

I hate cooking for just myself, and DD doesn't care that much about me cooking either, so it's generally pretty simple if it's just for us.
If it's just for one meal, somtimes we will just have snacks such as toast, cheese, and fruit. If DH is out of town so we are on our own for a few days, then I will put a little more effort into actual meals. Eggs are an easy breakfast, macaroni, for lunch, and chicken with veggies for dinner.

[annarose]

Lunch on the weekend is usually almond butter and jelly, cream cheese and jelly or some form of grilled cheese but made with tortillas ( good combo - applesauce, cheddar cheese and alittle agave)

If it's just me and her for dinner I again might make grilled cheese with veggies inside, she really likes these frozen veggie burgers by Dr Prager or some form of pasta ( just go frozen Earths Best Ravioli to try).

Fruit is dessert for both meals

I can't wait for her to get more teeth so we can do more and which options. I have also been avoiding lunch meat but might start mixing it in here and there

DH is home for every meal. He comes home for lunch and never misses dinner. But I normally don't eat lunch with them. Or breakfast. I'll heat up a burrito or a potpie or something little if I feel like eating before dinner. I know it's unhealthy, but I normally just fill up on iced coffee until dinner.

My go-to easy meal is picking up Panera since E loooves their Mac n Cheese. At home I might make spaghetti. He's so picky but he doesn't typically reject those two meals. I'll usually also offer yogurt or cottage cheese and some type of fruit.

[smilingeyes]

Usually breakfast and lunch are simple things. Eggs, weetabix, fruit and yogurt, oatmeal, waffles or pancakes. Lunch is usually mac and cheese, meat sauce with pasta, pasta with veggies and pesto (she LOVES this). Dinner is whatever I make for DH & I (usually). Latetly, I've been slacking hardcore and DH & I end up eating Subway or something and DD will eat something simple like perogies or chicken nuggets and veggies. Makes me feel horrible! Need to change this.

[carli]

Baked potatoes, sandwiches, chef boyardee, mac & cheese, Frozen chicken patties, pot pies...I usually add a can of veggies with them any of these and fruit too.

[mommabakes]

Breakfast is almost always a combo of fruit/yogurt/granola or a smoothie. Lunch is either leftovers or something easy like a sandwich with fruit/rice cakes/Sun chips and dinner is whatever sounds good. I have no problems making a meal even just for myself, since I know left overs will get eaten. DH works third shift and often sleeps through all of our meals.

[af1004]

Easy dinner or lunch is eggs a lot. I've done chicken nuggets and veggies... leftovers... she gets fruit, cheese, and sandwich turkey for lunch twice per week while I'm at work. We also do chef boyardee sometimes. I've even done ramen noodles and she loves them but I've only done them a few times since they are high in sodium.

[wowcheezits]

I will eat some cereal or a bagel and I give LO some of my cereal or else I'll give her a cheese stick, bananas, hot dogs, chobani, animal crackers, tator tots, waffles w/peanut butter, just about anything.

[princessvespa1]

Cereal or fried egg sandwich/scramble eggs

[ajaan113]

Quick meal. DS will get mac & cheese, quesadilla, tortilla with refried beans, deli meat (ham or turkey) with cheese, all meals are served with peas/carrots and fruit. Trying to get DS to like other veggies. Tried peanut butter but he broke out in a rash. Sunbutter is next. Breakfast is fruit, oatmeal, waffles, yogurt, and maybe eggs

Myself a sandwich, soup, or some frozen entree. DS loves cheese but I don't. Breakfast is the same but minus the yogurt. I need stay away from dairy.

[salemkitty]

Sautéed veggies with rice, leftovers or baked potato or sweet potato
If it is real bad I'll eat cereal and feed DS pouches and fruit

[jlprybs927]

Usually I throw together a quick salad or a sammie. Sometimes I eat just crackers, cheese and turkey pepperoni. Depends on how lazy I am feeling! For the LO we do pasta, ravioli, chicken strips, frozen veg w/ butter, whatever she seems to be into at the moment!
