Remember how overwhelming life was when you came home from the hospital with your new baby? I was terrified….and hungry and too tired to cook something. That’s where the help of friends came in! I was so thankful to have a few friends bring over meals while we adjusted to life with a new baby!
So, this past week when our friends welcomed the arrival of identical twin girls (they are super cute!), I knew I needed to do something special for them. So….I got to work and cooked up a big pan of lasagna for them, along with a tasty salad and brownies! Perfect comfort food!
It felt good to do something for a friend and they appreciated having a home-cooked meal too. Not having to worry about cooking dinner allowed them to spend time with their precious babies….. or take a quick nap! Plus, I even had enough ingredients to make us a small pan of lasagna too! Everybody wins!
What are some of your favorite dishes to cook and deliver to new moms?

I love to take chicken and rice.
When I had my last baby, someone from my church group brought over dinner every night for a week. It was truly the most marvelous of gifts.

Oh chicken and rice is a great idea! I’ll have to add that to my rotation!
What great church friends – dinner every night sounds amazing!
