20-Minute Family Meals for Food Allergy Families
This season of life has been crazy stressful lately. As much as I enjoy cooking, I need to start conserving all the extra time and energy that I can spare. So I’m jumping ship to family meals that take 20 minutes or less to get on the table. I’ve collected some of my favorites in this post…
Maple Mustard Salmon
Maple Mustard Salmon is a 20-minute sheet pan recipe! For a quick meal, serve with a bag of frozen steamer vegetables, dinner rolls or tortillas, and milk of choice.

Pasta with Garlic and Broccoli can be served vegetarian-style or with a side of chicken or meat. with or without a side of meat. For a quick 20-minute meal, enjoy with a side of fruit and your favorite milk option!
