5 Easy Dinners to Make After Vacation (or a Busy Weekend!)
When getting back home from vacation, getting dinner on the table is the last thing you want to think about.
Here are some of our favorite quick and easy meals to make when you're in a pinch for dinner.
All of these recipes are nourishing and delicious, and some of them are even great to make ahead of time and put in the freezer, so all you have to do is defrost when you get home!

Spaghetti squash is a classic Paleo pasta replacement, and this One-Pot Sausage and Chicken Spaghetti Squash Bake brings it together with protein and bold flavors to create a complete meal your whole family will love.
One of my favorite weeknight meals, this B3 bowl is quick to pull together and packed with so much flavor. You can also try this served over pasta, polenta or rice.
Mustard-Glazed Chicken Thigh Recipe
A delicious mustard glaze is easy to create using a cooking fat like butter, ghee, or coconut oil. Use whichever you like best, or try mixing them.
This recipe comes together very quickly if you make the components ahead of time - allot 15 minutes prep time to make the pulled pork, spicy slaw, and marinated onions, and 6 to 8 hours in the slow cooker for the pork and to marinate the onions. Use this time to unpack from vacation, do laundry, and get ready for the week ahead!
And if you're looking to make something ahead of time to freeze so all you have to do is reheat when you get home, this is the perfect recipe:
