Family Dinner Ideas

Last week the familiar conversation of family dinner ideas popped up in a group that I’m in.  Although I meal plan each week, I’ve been finding myself writing down the same recipes each week and have been lacking inspiration to try different things.  It was nice to know that I’m not the only one feeling this way, and the conversation prompted me to post a question on my Facebook page, asking people to share their favourite family dinners and I was very impressed (and also very hungry!) after reading through all of the fabulous responses.  I’ve put together a list of these ideas plus a few extra yummy family meals to help give you some family dinner ideas to make this week.  Where possible I’ve included a link to these recipes, however feel free to also share links to any of your favourites in the comments below. I’ve also created a printable which you can download and pop on the fridge, you will find this at the end of the post.

Enjoy!
