30 Quick and Easy 30 Minute Dinners

Reading Time: 2 minutes30 Quick and Easy 30 Minute Dinners Moment of realness: the last two weeks have been BUSY. Like, really busy.  I’m not sure if I am the only one who finds this, but the January – March is typically a pretty quiet time for us. I always find that during those few months, I really get things done. I write more posts, I cook more home meals, and I complete more home projects. 30 Quick and Easy 30 Minute Dinners And then, April hits.  April is a crazy month for us. A bunch of our friends have birthday’s this month so our weekends are busier. And, the weekdays are busier because work begins to pick up some more speed.  This April has felt particularly busy as I have a few projects on the go, and also because my husband is going through some pretty intense courses at work.  You know when you wake up, work, and suddenly it’s the end of the day and you’ve forgot to have coffee, eat lunch, or even begin to think about dinner? Yeah, that’s what it’s been like lately.  It’s these sorts of weeks that I rely on meals that are super quick to whip up. Of course though, we are foodies so we’re not willing to sacrifice flavour for speed! Here are 30 Quick and Easy 30 Minute Dinners that have us saying YUM!

You all know that I LOVE camping.🏕 We’ve been You all know that I LOVE camping.🏕 We’ve been camping for years and we’ve learned a lot along the way - like how to reduce our single-use items. Our camping SuperHabit is ensuring we always leave a campsite the way we’ve found it, or better.

[AD] It drives me a bit crazy when I see littered [AD] It drives me a bit crazy when I see littered single-use items, like water bottles, on hiking trails. Single-use items are used for a short time, but they have a lasting impact on our environment. I believe nature is sacred and we need to cherish it, support it, and respect it. That’s why when I go on a hike I always make sure to bring my reusable water bottle.

Carrying a reusable water bottle is a simple Superhabit that you can implement anywhere you go! So this summer stay hydrated and stay environmentally responsible with a reusable water bottle! #WhatsYourSuperhabit

I love heading outdoors with a few delicious treats and soaking up some sunshine.
