Fifteen Back to School Dinners Everyone Will Love

Even though back-to-school sales have been popping up for weeks with many kids starting classes well before Labor Day, make no mistake, summer is still with us. In many areas of the country, temperatures continue to soar making getting back into the swing of planning and cooking meals and prepping lunches and snacks for the school year seem daunting. For the moment, let’s tackle the weekly dinner challenge. You can stay out of the fast food lane and minimize what you spend on frozen convenience food dinners by relying on my kid-tested and grown-up approved Back to School Dinner Favorites.
