Help what to make for dinner on Tball night!

[Spinning]

We have tball on Tue nights DH goes straight to the field from work, 5:30 I bring the kids. It is over at 6:30 so I need something maybe in a crock pot that is kid friendly. Past two weeks we went to McD's Kids were happy but my stomach doens't do so well with it!

Even if it is a dish that takes about 2 hours to cook would be fine that I could put in the oven before we leave.

Well, I don't have a crock pot recipe but I can't say enough about our George Foreman grill and how fast it cooks stuff. We have ice skating and hockey around dinner time all winter and I found if I marinaded the meat or used a rub the kids will actually eat meat!! If the meat is thawed you can have pork chops, cuts of beef or chicken in 7 minutes. I microwave a vegetable or get a ready made salad in a bag and we're eating 10 minutes after we get home. My dd loves hamburgers on it. They take 8 minutes though.
Maybe that would be a good night to have "make your own sandwich" night.
