1. “Dinner In 10” Tacos by Gitty Friedman

Growing up, this was part of our weekly dinner rotation. It’s quick to make, fun to assemble, and easy to personalize to your children’s individual tastes.

2. Sheet-Pan Fajita Dinner by Elizabeth Kurtz

No reservations necessary for this restaurant equivalent that is easier than picking up an order! Serve it with black beans, salsa, guacamole, and red rice if you are feeling fancy. It’s also delicious over traditional white rice. Take the final dish up a notch by toasting the tortillas right on the stovetop grate or on the oven rack for a few minutes.

3. Nacho Cheese Chips for Dinner by Victoria Dwek

Fun! There’s two versions of these nacho cheese: the healthy version made with wraps that I cut into “chips” (I think the rectangle lavash-style wraps make the best chips, but you can use any wraps), and the version that will get the kids to eat it (with tortilla chips!). First of all, I know that a lot of kids might not touch the black beans and might only want their chips with cheese. But hey, when beans are presented like this, at least there’s a chance! I also wanted to incorporate beans in a dinner so we have more inexpensive protein ideas.

This recipe is my go-to Thursday night dinner. The minced garlic adds a kick of flavor that my family really
enjoys!
