I just started cooking and I've never cooked before ! I have a husband a 7 year old and a 2 month old. What are some introductory meals that are easy that I can cook quick. I'm trying to start this now because I plan to make lots of baby food when my 2 month old is of age to eat it.

I like chicken cutlets. Pound the cutlets really thin, coat with flour, egg and then bread crumbs and fry. They are delicious. Next day you can take a bit of tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese and warm them up in the oven. There you have chicken parm. Good luck

Good for you! I love to cook and wish I had more time. One of my favorite quick and easy is orzo skillet Boil orzo (pasta) Brown your favorite meat (ground beef, chicken, sausage, whatever) Drain the orzo and put back in the pan. While hot, throw on a few handfuls of fresh spinach Drain the meat Add to the orzo Drizzle with olive oil and season to taste To get you started, here's a site with cooking basics and some starter recipes. http://momsbistro.net/how-to-cook-for-beginners-recipes/

Meatloaf is always easy and also homemade mac and cheese. If you go to google and type in either of these things there's lots of recipes.

About 40 min.. I cut into the chicken and make sure there is no red meat.. Once it's done I broil it and make its crispy and brown..

Chicken breasts and a can of salsa in the crock pot. Shred up the chicken once cooked and use it for tacos! Doesn't get any easier!

I make baked chicken mashed potatoes corn and green beans or I'll do tacos but I'm tired of doing the same old thing. Fast food comes into play a lot as well

@tia don't use Prego sauce, it has lots of chemicals in the ingredients.. Switch to batali pasta sauce, all the ingredients are natural and 1000000000000. better and yummier!!!
