Being a busy family of 5 means lots to do each day. With school, work, the blog, sports, shopping and home responsibilities that doesn’t leave much time left for quality time together. Dinner time is the 1 45-minute chunk of the night that we come together and connect, talk and joke.
Planning meal times is sometimes a struggle so I lean towards cookbooks, magazines, pinterest and recipe apps. Having meal ideas on the go is very important because I can be at the store, see a great deal on an unfamiliar cut of meat and instantly have a handful of recipes at my fingertips.
Some of my favorite Android apps for meal ideas and planning.
