dinner ideas for entire family

DD is one and on table food since 9-10 months. I always made food separate for her than for DH and myself. DH and I myself sometimes dont eat that great, or we eat something spicy, too fatty etc.

Its now getting to be too much to cook separately so Id like some suggestions on some healthy, well-balanced meals that I can make that everyone can eat. I have done a lot of protein with pasta but i need some more ideas.

it seems like this should be a no-brainer but i find myself struggling every week. Thanks in advance!

As long as there are no allergies, you can really make anything!

We do a lot of chicken (prepared in various ways) with white rice/yellow rice/couscous/brown rice/rice pilaf/etc and some sort of veggie.

Any kind of fish

Pasta

Meatballs

Tacos (beef or turkey)

Steak or stew

anything!

Check out the food board - every week there is a thread about daily dinners. There are a lot of great ideas.

You can still make things that you and DH like but pull some out for DD.
My ex-h made beef stroganoff and DS doesn't like it. IF he pulled out some noodles and beef before he put the sauce on, DS would have been fine.
