One thing i really like to do is make "meatloaf patties" with mashed potatoes and green beans. I prepare the meatloaf mix as i regularly would and then fry it in a skillet like hamburgers, and then simmer it in the topping.
Meatloaf
2 lbs hamburger or ground turkey
1/2 cup crushed saltine crackers
1/4 onion, chopped
1/2 tsp garlic, minced
2 eggs, beaten
1 can tomato sauce
Topping
1 can condensed tomato soup
2 tbsp. prepared yellow mustard
2 tbsp. splenda brown sugar substitute
In bowl, combine beef, onion, garlic, eggs, tomato sauce and crackers. Mix well and pat into baking dish or cast iron skillet. Bake 1 hr at 400, drain off grease. Mix topping ingredients and pour over meatloaf, bake another 30 minutes at 350 degrees.

When I'm having a crazy busy day I usually throw some pasta on (we like whole grain pastas) with some marinara sauce. Sometimes I make salads with pre-cooked chicken, too. Toss some bagged salad, a little cheese, whatever veggies I have around and some cooked grilled chicken in a bowl and voila! Dinner is served.

the Cambells Chicken casseral..you just put 2 cups of rice, a can of cream of chicken, some garlic salt, and pepper into a baking dish..(about 3 minutes prep time) then lay the chicken on top and bake for about 1 hour at 375...it's not quick unless you throw it in while you take care of other things

Stir fry, of any kind. Also chicken breast cooked stovetop with couscous. Couscous is wonderful, it only takes about 7 mins.
Try to buy one of Rachael Ray's 30 minute meals cookbooks, they're awesome.

I agree--Rachel Ray's books are GREAT for quick and easy, yummy meals.
Most of her pasta recipes really only take about 15 minutes.
