These kid-approved dinners come together in under 30 minutes.

It's a school night, you've worked all day, and you don't have the time or the energy to spend an hour or more in the kitchen preparing dinner. Don't despair (or turn to the takeout menus)! I've been there. That's why I keep a list of easy, no-fuss meals in the back of my head that I know I can turn to when I'm feeling stressed, and get something on the table that I know Jade will love, too. Here are my top five go-tos right now:
With all the flavor of pizza and none of the fuss, Chicken Pizzaiola Sliders turn a hearty sandwich into a meal - with some stealthy greens in there for good measure!
What's even more fun than taco night? These Crispy Chicken Taquitos, which use store-bought rotisserie chicken or leftover roast chicken to speed things along.
Smoked mozzarella and grilled steak bring big flavor to these Steak and Guacamole Buns, which will satisfy the biggest appetites in your family.
Meatballs on a school night? It's possible! I promise these 20-Minute Meatballs will be done in just a few more minutes than it takes to boil the spaghetti.

Want a one-pan pasta that's packed with protein and veggies, too? This Creamy Orzo with Prosciutto and Peas is up to the challenge.
