We like chicken, steak, all kinds of vegetables, cheese, and pasta. We cook spaghetti and pasta a lot. I need some easy recipes that little kids can eat also. They are good eater. They are not too picky.
I have a handful of recipes that I cook from but my family is getting tired of them and I usually end up ordering pizza.

5-6 broccoli florets
10 cherry tomatoes

large pack of spinach leaves [optional]
1/2 pack of Philadelphia light
Cut the chicken breasts into bite size chunks. Fry off until golden brown
and put to one side.
Put the onions and garlic in the pan and fry until soft, add the mushrooms and peppers, add the herbs (couple of pinches of mixed herbs is good).
Steam carrots, broccoli and spinach (just put the spinach in for the last couple of minutes).
Meanwhile, boil pasta as per instructions, drain then add to the hot pasta to the onions, mushroom, pepper mixture and the spinach, carrots and broccoli.
Cut the cherry toms in half and add to the pasta (my little one likes these quite crunchy rather than soft but they could be cooked for longer)
Mix in the 1/2 pack of Philadelphia, As the pasta and veg are still hot, the cheese and Philly should melt and coat the past and veg.
1. You can try making Famous Bowl from KFC.
All you need are Mashed Potatoes, lots of gravy, whole kernel corn, cheese, and fried chicken
Mashed Potatoes:
boil the potatoes ( you can determine if the potatoes are soft enough using a fork )

while it's hot, mash the potatoes.
it's up to you if you want to add butter

Grease a deep 9 inch pie plate and line the bottom with one ready rolled pastry. Make sure there's a little bit of pastry overlapping. Pour the filling into the pie plate. Brush the edges of the pastry with the milk and egg yolk glaze. Gently place the other ready rolled pastry on top. Press the edges of the pastries together to seal. Trim off any extra pastry and press around the pie with a fork. Cut 4 steam holes on the top and brush the top of the pastry with the rest of the glaze.

Grilled Eggplant Parm Lasagna
Serves 4
Ingredients
* 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), divided
* 1 medium onion, finely chopped
* 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
* 1 can whole plum tomatoes (28 ounces), such as San Marzano
* 1 cinnamon stick
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper
* 5-6 leaves fresh basil, torn, plus additional for garnish
* 4 medium eggplants, thinly sliced
* 1 quart ricotta cheese
* 1 1/2 cups grated Parmigiano Reggiano, divided
* 2 egg yolks
* 2 1-pound balls smoked fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
Preparation
Pre-heat the oven to 375潞F and pre-heat a grill to medium-high.
Place a medium size pot over medium-high heat with two turns of the pan of EVOO, about 2 tablespoons. Add the onion and garlic to the pan and cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes. Add the tomatoes to the pan and break them up with a wooden spoon or potato masher. Add the cinnamon stick, salt, pepper and the basil to the pan and simmer the sauce until thickened and aromatic, about 10 minutes.
While the sauce is simmering, brush the eggplant slices with the remaining EVOO and grill them until they're marked from the grill and tender, about 5 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, combine the ricotta, 1 cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and egg yolks together in a medium bowl. Reserve.
When everything is ready, spread a thin layer of sauce in the bottom of a baking dish. Top with a layer of eggplant slices and spread half of the ricotta mixture over the eggplant. Top with another layer of eggplant and layer one third of the mozzarella over the eggplant. Top with some sauce and then more eggplant.
Spread the remaining half of the ricotta mixture and top with another layer of eggplant. Top with another third of the mozzarella and sauce, and then with the remaining eggplant. Scatter the remaining mozzarella over the top and sprinkle with the remaining grated cheese. Place the casserole dish on top of a baking sheet (in case it bubbles over) and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 45 minutes. Garnish with basil and serve.
Lemon Pepper Chicken
Serves 4
Ingredients
* 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), plus 2 tablespoons, if roasting
* 2 lemons, divided
* 3-4 cloves garlic, finely grated or pasted
* 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
* Salt
* 1 3-4-pound chicken, skin removed and cut into 8 pieces
Preparation
Pre-heat the oven to 450潞F or a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the EVOO, the zest and juice of 1 lemon and the garlic and black pepper. Season the chicken well with salt and toss it into the bowl. Marinate the chicken for 15 minutes. Wash your hands after handling the raw poultry.
If roasting the chicken, place a large, cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat with two turns of the pan of EVOO, about 2 tablespoons. Sear the chicken, meat side-down, until golden brown, about 5 minutes, then turn it over and transfer the pan to the oven. Roast until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
If grilling, grill the chicken until marked and cooked through, 8-10 minutes per side.
Squeeze the juice of the remaining lemon over the cooked chicken. You can try serving this dish with rice alongside.
