Bambina Diaries
Quick and Easy Meals
We know that many of you amazing moms are looking for quick and easy meals to prepare for your families during the latest COVID-19 crisis. So, we wanted to share some of our favorite recipes and to make it easy we are organizing them by popular food items in your fridge or freezer, quick meals under 10 mins, crockpot and instant pot meals, as well as kid favorites and meals with leftovers.
If you have any additional meals you have enjoyed in the past and would like for us to include, please message us on Instagram @bambinadiaries. We hope that these meals help you as you are planning what to cook or prepare over the next few days.
xoxo,
Krys + Maddy
