Friday Night Supper Plans; Calzone’s for us. How about you?

I have supper completed for my family which is a huge burden lifted from my day.
Are there any of you who struggle with the time and energy on a busy school day to get supper done at the end of the day?  I know for us, Friday seems to be the busiest day of the week. I am not sure why because we have activities Tuesday – Friday, but Friday is my hardest meal preparing day of the whole week.  I have been experimenting with a trick this past month that I have found is working for me and so I'm going to share it with you as well.
I have found that if I make our supper in the morning then I am free from the prep time at the end of the day for our supper meal. We often eat home made from scratch pizza on Fridays. I make the pizza in the morning and then all I have to do at the end of the day is warm it back up in the oven when I get home. No mess, no prep time for cooking, and little clean up as well. You can’t beat that for a quick Friday night supper if you just plan in advance.  I have also found that if I have a busy weekend and know I will be too tired to cook then I can make those meals in advance as well and just eat those as left overs. No prep time or clean up for them either.
I hope this helps to encourage you that not every busy night needs to be a peanut butter sandwich or eatting out. It just takes the forthought to prepare in advance.
