Help me!

So things are going well in my life. I am usually with Kevin and kids and no one else really sees me. However, I am realizing that I am not very creative when it comes to dinner. So may dear friends and readers I am soliciting your assistance. What are some good dinner ideas and some things that a 4 year old will eat. Cause some ideas that I think are great she won't touch. Any help would be appreciated! Love you all. Oh and Kevin is still treating me like a princess and I LOVE it!

Well you deserve to be treated like a princess because you are one!

Dinners, hmmmm. My kids aren't very picky eaters, but here are a few things they love.
-Tacos
-Homemade Pizza (I let the kids make their own personal size pizza and put their own toppings on. They love this).
-BBQ Chicken. Just marinade the chicken in BBQ sauce. Take the chicken out of the marinade and bake it. Serve with rice or potatoes.
-Spaghetti
-Chinese Casserole
-Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup
-Chicken pot pies
-Roast in the crock pot
-Hamburger/hot dogs on the grill
-My kids love fish and we grill it all the time
-Home made mac and cheese
-Breakfast Meals-My kids love breakfast food. So at least once a week we do any of these: hash browns, eggs, toast, pancakes, french toast (you can get raisin cinnamon bread and it is so yummy)waffles, bacon, and sausage.
-Sweet and sour chicken on rice
-Josiah loves white chili soup

I have tons of recipes (as you know), if you want any I can e-mail them to you.

Ditto your friend Melissa! I'm happy that your having fun Megan!

The tricky thing with my kids, is that I can't keep track of what they "don't like" because it can change daily! My kids like most of the things on that list. They also like when I cut slits halfway up a hot dog and then boil to make "hot dog octopus." My kids are also big lovers of baked potatoe bar & salads because they love to pik their own toppings. Any kind of pasta is usually a hit, although since Abby is allergic to tomatoes we makes the sauce with canned pumpkin. Chicken & stuffing in the crock pot is super easy & they always love it. Good luck! :)
