I’ve been buzzing around like a bee on steroids this month to bring 31 Days of Delicious Easy Recipes for super-busy wives! In a recent poll within my newsletter, most wifeys said that cooking is the greatest struggle as keeper of the home. Shopping, meal planning, and food in general, are tough jobs to keep up. I hear ya.
I did my best to share quick and simple breakfast, snack, appetizer, and dinner ideas to give you a fresh motivation to get in that kitchen again and have fun! Remember, if there’s a shortcut to fabulous tasting food, I’m gonna find it and then share it with you. Buy hey, I want to share every hack I discover with you because I realize how quickly joy can get squeezed out of the equation if we aren’t careful.
No joy stealing today, Satan. Not today!

Delicious Easy Recipe Suggestions
My suggestion would be for you to cruise through the recipes and choose any that will help you get your appetizers, breakfast, sides, or desserts on the table faster. Print the recipe now and then keep your printed recipe cards separated by category. When you are planning meals for the next seven days, just grab the stack that you need.
I pray that this helps take a load off of you, my friend. There are so many more delicious easy recipes that I wanted to share, and I will, sporadically in the coming days. Next month though, we’ll be focusing on wifey encouragement in specific areas of our lives. I went into detail about this in this past weekend’s newsletter.

Great recipes. I am especially excited to try out the lasagna and crock pot chicken.

What a great list of recipes! Wow! I can’t wait to try some of these out – especially the soups now that fall is almost here!
Some of these look soooo yummy! I’ve been meaning to try making pumpkin soup, so I’ll be giving that one a try! 🙂
Awesome list. Bookmarked! Takes the pain out of deciding what to cook for the day.
Wow, this is such a great list, I’ll have to peruse it more later. I definitely can vouch for the baked potato bar – especially on weeks we make chili, as a way to use the leftovers.
I’m pinning this so I can come back to it. As a busy working mom, I”m always looking for easy, delicious recipes for my family! Yeah! Thank you!
Great post! I love the variety of recipes available, I’m pinning this for later!
Great collection! Thanks for sharing at our Tips & Tricks Link Party!

Great list! These are all good recipes 🙂
I love cooking, but run out of recipes to try and get tired of making the same thing over and over. Appreciate the new (and easy) recipes to try.

I hear ya, Karen. I think we all do. I get the ‘cook burnout’ often and am always looking to add a new recipe each week. So glad this was helpful for you!

This is such a great round-up of recipes. I’m always looking for simple ones because I don’t have as much time as I would like to cook!
