It&#8217;s the random phone calls, doctor appointments that take longer than usual, an opportunity you can&#8217;t pass up and things like spring break, a daughter who needs some one-on-one time or a spring snowstorm that sends you out to shovel for a few hours that interfere with the best of intentions.<br \/>\n<br clear=\"all\">Having fast and easy dinner options in these situations is key to sanity, especially if you have four kids and a fresh pile of heavy, wet snow outside the front door.  This is when the meals that are pulled from the recesses of the refrigerator and the dark corners of the cupboards succeed in making me feel like I&#8217;ve got everything under control.  We can do this, no matter what life or mother nature throws at us next.<br \/>\n<br clear=\"all\"> Start with leftover naan.  I make a large batch on purpose so there will be leftovers to make pizza or paninis with.  It takes no extra time to mix, and it gets me set for an easy meal later on.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/crankymouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/shrimp-pizza-on-naan-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"shrimp-pizza-on-naan-1\" width=\"535\" height=\"357\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/crankymouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/shrimp-pizza-on-naan-1.jpg 535w, https:\/\/crankymouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/shrimp-pizza-on-naan-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 535px) 100vw, 535px\" \/><br \/>\nFor the sauce, a simple white version:minced garlic, a bit of salt and olive oil.
