20 Best Quick Paleo Dinners for Weeknights (1)

School is BACK and that means I have about 20-30 minutes to make dinner each night.

I’m not much of a prepper – to be honest – so I like minimal prep, quick simple dinners that the kids won’t refuse to eat or toss in the trash 🙂

Or let’s face it – now that they’re older they’ll just leave it there and grab their own snacks instead. So we need GOOD ones!

My kids have always been fans of meatballs, burgers, chicken cutlets, and shrimp with simple sides like salads, cauliflower rice and roasted veggies.

Some of the sides – like roasted veggies and potatoes – I DO prep ahead of time and even cook ahead of time so I can just do a quick reheat while the rest of the meal cooks.

Weeknights mean I don’t have time anymore to sit and wait for potatoes to roast for 35 minutes!

So, that part gets done on Sunday, along with any recipes that involve baked potatoes (like chicken pesto stuffed sweet potatoes!). I store baked potatoes or sweet potatoes in the refrigerator and then just reheat them in the oven, which only takes about 10-15 minutes or so.

If you’re really low on time – the microwave will suffice for things like that as well – no microwave shame necessary! We are feeding our families and we do what we can!

Okay, I believe it’s now time to get to the good stuff! I hope you love these quick paleo meals as much as we do!

    Thanks for putting together all these great easy ideas and recipes! I used to love to cook but as a homeschooling mom of 4 it’s really become quite exhausting and I lack motivation. I have recently switched to paleo (just myself, not my family) for health reasons and it’s been a struggle. I am very glad to have found your blog!
