I'm going to make a batch of saag (curried greens) this evening and portion it up for a meal tonight and for future meals. I'll add cheese cubes to it before serving with a side of basmati rice.

Which greens do you use?
Typically spinach or mustard greens, but I'm trying it with turnip greens tonight.

Until I read that you had it made in the freezer I was thinking "How do you make a quick bolognese?
Meanwhile, last night I had "Mom's fried chicken". Chicken legs peeled and then floured and spiced. Pan fried in just a bit of butter so one has to turn it every now and then. Boiled potatoes that are then riced. And of course a white gravy from the pan drippings. I took the bag with my flour and seasonings for the chicken and mixed that in the drippings to make a roux. Then some water from the boiled potatoes to start the gravy once the flour had absorbed all of the oil and cooked just a little bit. And finally milk so it was a white gravy. That goes over the riced potatoes and I could eat just that and be happy. Frozen peas as vegetable.
And since the chicken was cheep cheep I bought a lot. More tonight. Maybe Tandoori chicken with dahl and of course basmati rice.

I changed my mind last night. Tonight I had tandoori chicken, dahl, basamati rice and naan. I used this recipe for the chicken:

And winged it on the dahl. I looked at several different recipes for basic amounts and spices. Both were fantastic.
Tandoori Chicken - Once Upon a Chef
Juicy on the inside, crisp on the outside, and perfectly seasoned, tandoori chicken is a delicious, easy way to spice up your family dinners.

Microwave popcorn.
I'm expecting meals to be getting less and less complex. Its getting nice and its harder to get the kids to come inside(and if they're out, I have to be, too).

Popcorn and beer. That should get them in bed early.
Chicken breast (or vegetable palets for the veggie member of the family), chips (fries) and peas.
Followed by home made cherry scones.
Simple, quick and I've got nothing else suitable in until tomorrows shopping trip.

My grandmother on my step-father's side used to make those every time we visited. I came to the conclusion that's all she knew how to cook.
I want stuffed cabbage rolls...
Did they minimize the number of visits? They may have been intended to do so...
Have the kids help roll them.
You must be mistaking my children for helpful kids who enjoy food.
We didn't visit her often, because my mother wan't very fond of her.
Alright, have them help make cabbage rolls for Mother's Day.
Home made beef burgers, sliced and roasted potatoes, roasted tomatoes, roasted bell pepper.
I had homemade bread and jam for breakfast.
