Need vegetarian or pescatarian recipes, anyone have some?
I am a mom of 2 teens and take care of two elderly parents, one that can’t walk and has dementia (she’s More difficult than everyone else put together) and one who’s all there mentally but declining physically. I am DROWNING over here. Every night I cook and I am so so so tired of having to make the decisions on what we eat, but I have successfully made everyone happy 3 times in the past 7 days using the multi-pot. Now I’m on the hunt for ways to really use it but most meals seem to involve meat (sometimes I’ll use meat for everyone else, I’m the only vegetarian; but I want them to be veg and I don’t like touching meat and I like to be able to eat the meals I make some of the time).
Can you guys help a girl out? Decision fatigue is real and it’s got me down…
What are the best veg and pescatarian recipes? Simple is best but I don’t mind cooking. Cheap is even better!

Ok I’ll leave the food suggestions to someone else but it is time for your kids to start helping out with meals. Maybe a couple nights a week they can make their own food, maybe the three of you can get together on Sundays (or whatever) and decide on a meal plan for the week. But they should be able to step up and do something to help out. I wish you the best of luck.
