We usually have a roast once a week, if early in week usually a chicken, on a weekend a joint of meat, lamb this week. Kebabs - home made falafel,marinated steak sliced for meat eaters, then hummus, garlic & yog sauce, chilli sauce, grated carrot cheese, shredded lettuce and tomates. Can serve with couscous, rice, or crunchy oven roasted potatoes. Nachos a popular one with the kids, we have beans instead of meat Chicken parmigania, serve with salad, and or roasted spuds Home made pizza Soups - fav in our house sweetcorn &potato chowder Corn fritters mexican spiced, served with home made salsa and bacon, and or chorizo sausages, and an egg Veggie shepherds pie Steak and roast veggies and a sauce Home made burgers with wedges Chilli &rice Left over chilli pies Satay chicken, either in wraps and salad or with rice
The above are some of the meals that we have week nights after work so not so labour intensive.

Great ideas! I'm going to have more wraps, we all like those! I'm trying to get inspired as we eat out far too much

Tymar, we wrap the rolled up kebabs in foil and pop them into sandwich press, so they are just like a bought one :-)

We eat a pasta dish in our house that we call One Pot Wonder because it only uses one pot and it's so quick and easy to cook. Brown mince lightly in a large pot, season with onion, garlic, and whatever seasonings and herbs your family likes. Add a couple cans of chopped tomatoes and rinse them out with plenty of water, and toss that in the pot too. When it comes to the boil dump in a packet of pasta spirals, and keep it boiling while you chop whatever veges you want to add. Grated zucchini and carrot, chopped broccoli, celery and capsicum are our favorites. Add the veges, and cook til everything is as firm or soft as you like it. Serve with grated cheese.
