Things like frozen lasagna and stew are classics for new parents, but not exactly the greatest light fare. What are your faves that:

  • can be easily eaten when you drop them off, or popped in the fridge for later
  • don’t require turning on the oven
  • are refreshing in the heat
  • are nutritious, not too junky

    Gazpacho. Giada DiLaurentiis has a green gazpacho that is super tasty, and feels less like you’re just eating salsa out of a bowl. Charcuterie. Did this for a friend, I knew they loved charcuterie but I think it would work for lots of people. Arrange a nice pretty board with lots of yummy condiments, meats, cheeses, nuts, pickles, fruit, and wrap it up. She mentioned it was so nice to have what felt like a fancy adult meal amidst all the diapers and non adult themed things. Made her feel like herself, not a breast milk machine lol.
