60 Easy Family Dinners - pinnable image for Pinterest

Cooking recipes all the family will enjoy can be difficult… not so with this bumper list of 60+ easy family-friendly dinner recipes. All of these recipes are kid-approved but will appeal to adults too, meaning everyone can eat together at dinner time!

60+ Easy Family Dinner Recipes

Hands up who finds it hard to find recipes that everyone will happily eat? Perhaps you find yourself stuck in a rut, cooking the same meals on repeat… or perhaps you find yourself resorting to cooking multiple meals every evening to keep everyone happy?

To help you out, I have compiled this bumper list of 60+ easy peasy and very family-friendly recipes to inspire you and help you get out of that midweek meal rut…

Each recipe has been tested and approved by my harshest critics… my two kids! But they are also meals that my husband and I enjoy eating too… in short, they are meals that everyone can enjoy together.

To help you find just what you want, I’ve grouped the recipes into sections. To jump to the section you most want to explore, hit the link below. Alternatively you can just keep scrolling to browse all the recipes…

Jump to: 

  • Pasta Recipes
  • Fakeaways
  • Traybakes
  • One Pots
  • Vegetarian & Vegan Recipes
  • Chicken Recipes
  • Fish and Seafood Recipes
  • Mince Recipes
  • Sausage Recipes
  • Soup Recipes

For each recipe, I’ve included a link to the recipe, plus prep times, cook times and total times, so you can quickly and easily see which recipe suits your needs and the time available.

If you make one of these recipes (or, even better, discover a new family favourite!) I’d love to hear from you. Let me know via your favourite social media platform (I’m on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram – tag me @easypeasy foodie!) or leave a comment below.
