Let's be honest - springing forward isn't fun. Not only do our pets and children not seem to understand how clocks work, but it also takes far longer to get your body used to that single hour change. While sunsets on the back patio are nice, who wants to lose an hour, especially with our busy lives?

To help you combat that time-shift struggle, we've put together ten of our favorite fast dinner recipes. From pasta to soup to quick casseroles, we've got you covered when it comes to dinnertime. After all, you want to enjoy that extra evening sun!
