With a new school year upon us, it’s time to get back into the swing of things! Now is the time to start planning family dinners again – however simple they may be. With 2 little ones, a busy teacher husband and many part-time endeavors that keep me busy, I am ready for some new easy meals. This is how I started my search for easy 5 ingredient recipes.
I believe that a recipe doesn’t have to be complicated to taste good. Nor does it have to have lots of fancy ingredients. Simple recipes with regular ingredients are some of my favorites. I love when a recipe doesn’t take long to prepare. I am always amazed at the variety of 5 ingredient recipes online.
I spent days collecting some of the most delicious 5 ingredient recipes from around the web. I have not (yet) tried all of them but I printed many to try in the coming weeks. As I collected these recipes for myself, I thought that many of you busy moms would enjoy having this collection in one place as well.
