DS likes a weird casserole I call "chicken and junk"; made with seared chicken breast, stovetop stuffing and canned cream of chicken soup. He tends not to like large quantities of meat but he does like a few pasta dishes and a couple of homemade soups I make. For the most part, he'd live on garbage fast food if it was up to him.

DH doesn't really like casseroles or anything where the food is too combined; he prefers a well-prepared piece of meat and starchy sides. His favourite is a "steak-house" menu I do with rib-eye topped with shrimp, crabmeat and bernaise. I serve it with stuffed potatoes and caprese salad.

They both love breakfast for dinner and a good turkey feast with all the traditional sides done "Mom's way". Oddly, neither of them really care for baking or desserts which kind of makes me sad because I'd like to be able to "love them" with some nice chocolate chip cookies or an apple pie once in a while...

Another plus is that it is fairly quick and easy!

Quick favorite dinner would be Salad Pizza. Take a Boboli crust and bake for 10 minutes, take out and pour a little Good Seasons salad dressing made with balsamic vinegar (the "sauce"), then add shredded or chopped greens, chopped tomato, black olives, sliced red onions, chopped cucumbers, grilled chicken and finally shredded cheese (cheddar or monterey jack or mozzarella). Pop back in oven for about 3 or 4 minutes until the cheese melts. Cut in slices and serve with more salad dressing if desired.

Other favorite is Sausage and Peppers (Italian sausage with red, green, yellow peppers and white onion, Italian seasonings). Made that tonight for dinner!!

Everyone loves my tacos but myself and oldest DD could eat them everyday. Years ago I had a friend who couldn't tolerate ground beef so I substituted ground turkey breast w/chicken fajita seasoning and we've been eating them that way ever since. I make my own retried beans and we fry our taco shells. Real shredded cheese from the block, no bagged stuff, it makes a huge difference in flavor.

DH's taco salad which he makes the next day with my left over taco fixings. Oddly DS is not a fan of tacos (he has quesadilla) but will eat the taco salad like there's no tomorrow. Weird kid, lol.

DH's Nachos made with my beans and chicken. I can use the same exact ingredients and they never come out the way he does them.

DD's Chicken Cesare

Homemade fettuccine Alfredo.

Chicken Piccatta (DH's Favorite)

"Fish Sauce" marinara with shrimp, clams and crab meat.

Chicken Parm

DH's Tri Tip, the next day he makes Carne Asada with the leftovers, another hit.

Chicken or Shrimp Scampi (or mixed!)

Any kind of seafood

Wings and homemade fries in the Actifry

My two youngest LOVE my Swedish Meatballs

Those are the favorites, most other things some adore while others are 'meh' about it.

 

[Planogirl]

Spaghetti
Steak (we don't eat this as often now. )
Meatloaf
Tacos and burritos
Chicken and noodles (good when it's cold)
Stir fry chicken (you add whatever you're in the mood for)

 

[Teresa Pitman]

Also vegan here. My family likes variety, so I try to change things up. Also, some of the little ones (my grandkids) are fussier than others. But some guaranteed hits include:
Black bean burgers (homemade, from the Peas and Thank You cookbook). Everyone loves these.
Cheesy Bean Soup (from Let Them Eat Vegan)
Cream of Broccoli Soup (from Isa Does It)
Cheesy Cauliflower Soup (from Soup's On) (The "cheesy" in these recipes does not refer to actual cheese!)
Various lentil "dal" soups - we like curry!
Butter "chicken" made with seitan
Chickpea-Spinach curry (another one that is always a hit)
Black bean enchiladas
Barbecue beans with cornmeal biscuits
Polenta lasagna
Tofu Frittata (which my grandkids call "Hakuna Frittata")
California Salad rolls (they LOVE these!)
I'm sure there are lots more...
