I desperately need some new quick dinner ideas. I'm pregnant with my second child , and since my husband is never home for dinner, I have very little motivation to wrestle with my 15-month-old and cook at the same time. Add in morning sickness and quite often, I'll just warm up leftovers for my son, and just have soup or cereal after he goes to bed.
Any suggestions for quick balanced dinners or crock pot meals? Something that doesn't involve much browning of meat (the morning sickness) would be preferable.

I make a roast in the crock pot all the time. Just take your meat and marintate it overnight. Put it in the crock pot with 2 cans of beef broth, carrots, and chunks of potatoes. Season with salt, pepper and garlic. That's it. Let cook all day on low. The meat will be really tender.

I marinate it in a dry meat marinate that you get from the grocery store. I just mix the marinate with water and soak it all night. It helps make the meat nice and tender.
