    Thanks for the dinner ideas. I think you eat vegetarian. Do you know a list of vegetarian meals that are kid friendly and nutritious? List does not need to be as long but would be very appreciated.

    Cathy a lot of those recipes are vegetarian or you can just omit the meat from the dish. I just made that Garden Skillet the other night and served with french bread. It was pretty good 🙂

    Have you tried the crock pot marinara sauce?
