What's a Dad to do?

My wife and I have three lovely children that more or less run our home or maybe that's just the way it feels at times. I work during the week and my wife works at least one day every weekend.

Now, you must understand that I think of myself as a fairly capable person around the kitchen, but I think my biggest problem is what so many of us run into... lack of inspiration. I am constantly stumped when it comes to what I can fix for dinner when Mom isn't around. It is really important that our meals are good for us,something the kids will enjoy, inexpensive and fairly easy to make.  

This past weekend I was in just that position, searching through the pantry at the house wondering what to make when I remembered an old favorite of mine, potatoes with peppers and onions. It didn't take long and the kids loved it!  My son, Jack is always the most finnicky in the house (although he has come a long, long way) and it cut the mustard with him and then some!

Jack, Lucy, Zoe and myself really enjoyed this simple recipe. You can eat it solo or you can fix a protein and a vegetable to go along. Enjoy!

5 potatoes sliced

1/2 red onion

1 red pepper

1 T. olive oil

salt & pepper to taste

Combine the ingredients in a large skillet and cook on medium high heat until potatoes are brown, stirring regularly.
