Sharing is caring!

Quick and easy dinners after a hard day of week should not be complicated.  Is there anything worse than working all day and getting home and worrying about what to serve?  How about an easy and quick Garlic and Roasted Pepper Pasta?  Sound like a plan for your meals?  Let me walk you through how we have supper on the table quick as a rabbit.

Meal Planning and Prep time with Pasta

After a long day at work I am not usually in the mood to wait for food when I get home.  Most days we try, or rather Kent tries to pre-plan.  Take something out of the freezer so we can quickly get dinner on the table.

Is it only me or does everyone start to feel a little faint when they are hungry?  If a meal takes too long or I haven’t eaten properly during the day then I get a tad bit HANGRY after work.  Trying to have a mid afternoon snack helps but so also does getting the meal ready quickly and easily.

This Garlic and Roasted Pepper Pasta is not just quick, it’s tasty and versatile.  Normally we serve it with a chicken breast ( like in  my stories last night) but for this meal we went Turkey Sausage.

Start to finish we can get home and have supper/dinner on the table in under a half hour.  Let’s walk through it together shall we?
