kid-friendly dinnersSchool is back in session! Gwinnett County is back in the swing of the school year season, no matter how ready or not you were! Getting the kids back on a schedule can be tricky for the first few weeks. Being able to juggle homework, after-school activities, dinner, and bedtime can be a handful! But, that’s where we come in! Here is a hand-selected list of 7 easy, kid-friendly dinners for the back-to-school season.

  • Pizza Cups

These are quite simple, a fun twist on pizza! You just need a few ingredients for the pizza itself, and whatever pizza toppings your heart desires!

  • One pan Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice Casserole

This one is a crowd favorite! Who doesn’t love cheesy broccoli and chicken?!

  • Mini Chicken Pot Pie Cups

This is the ultimate comfort food for the South! Grab a combination of frozen veggies, shredded chicken, pie crusts or biscuits, and a muffin tin to create these mini-yummy pies!

  • Homemade Hamburger Helper

This easy kid-friendly dinner idea has only 4 ingredients- noodles, ground beef, tomato soup, and cheddar cheese! Mix these 3 in a pot after the noodles are cooked, add some crushed tomatoes and sauteed onions for extra texture, top with shredded cheddar cheese, and voilà!

  • Cordon Blu Pasta Casserole

Mix your cooked chicken, egg noodles, chopped ham, and Swiss cheese into a casserole dish, and bake until golden brown! You get the delicious taste of Cordon Blu but without the hassle!

  • BBQ Chicken Quesadillas

Who loves a meal where you don’t have to do anything!? Set the chicken in your crockpot and let cook on low for 8 hours while you are at work, by dinner time you will have beautifully shredded chicken to throw together into some delicious quesadillas! Add some red onion and pineapple salsa to step them up a notch.

  • Walking Tacos

All the prep needed for this kid-friendly dinner is to cook the ground beef and get together your favorite taco toppings. Throw your beef, toppings, and any sauce into a bag of Frito Lay chips, mix it up, and eat your tacos on the go!

We hope these kid-friendly dinners bring you some ideas for weekday school nights. The best part is all of these supply delicious leftovers! Getting back in the swing of things can be tricky for the whole family, but these easy kid-friendly dinners should take some of the stress off your back!
