Growing up, Monday night dinner was famous.

Not famous for it’s grandeur or A-list celebrity sightings. There wasn’t a single white table cloth, pressed napkin, or china plate in sight. No, Monday night dinner was famous for celebrating the survival of the work/school day. It was a chance for our family to connect, vent, laugh, and recharge over classic comfort dishes.

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, I thought we could pay homage to all the hard working mom’s out there by making some old fashioned dinner recipes. Not only are these dishes full of nostalgia and comforting, but they are lightened-up, which will make mom grin from ear-to-ear!
