easy dinner recipes for families

The whole reason Smells Like Home was created in 2007 was to save my family's recipes in digital format. Since then, this recipe Collection has become one of the most popular on the site, with tons of easy dinner recipes for families. These family recipes are perfect for all sizes of families from small, like mine, to large as the recipes are generally easy to scale up or down as needed. You'll find one pot meals like creamy sausage pasta, toddler-approved meals for picky eaters like baked chicken parmesan meatballs, mac and cheese like my Panera copycat recipe, and heirloom recipes like Mom's garlic butter shrimp scampi.
