Need some fast, yet healthy, main dish meal ideas?

As a fellow Catholic Mom, believe me, I know that fitting everything into our day is impossible - it's my biggest challenge in life at the moment and a constant stream of picking and choosing. If I choose to be "Mary" when a friend in need calls, then the dishes or laundry might not get done before Kent gets home (again). If I choose to be "Martha" and don't pick up the phone, I may finish some chores or get my next day's posts written (and not have to stay up so late trying to catch up), but I'll probably miss a blessing, too. Should I chip away at the piles of clutter or work on that project that has been hanging there on my to-do list for months? Should I just go out and play with the kids or make a nice dinner? ("Just" playing is always a good choice, but not an easy one to make with no dinner planned and a messy house staring you in the face.) You get the picture. I'm not sure when Moms are supposed to get used to the fact that we just-can't-do-it-all! Our oldest is almost 16 and I still haven't adjusted to that 'overwhelmed' feeling. I'm sure each of you know exactly what I mean, so today I have at least one suggestion as a way to help you feel less bogged down: here are some fast, but healthy, main dish meal ideas so you don't have to resort to the dreaded fast food drive-thru on those nights when you just don't know how you'll get it all done. If you have more healthy fast food ideas, I hope you'll post a comment and share it with the rest of us!
