Evening Meals

[MrsLeeG]

Do you get fed up trying to decide on things to make for dinner? There is only my husband and I to cook for but i feel like we talk about food all the time! What we having for dinner? Arghhhh

Do you also end up having the same half a dozen meals over and over again? Think we are stuck in a food rut - can anyone help?

Get a good recipe book and do one different meal out of it a week and you will quickly climb out of the food rut.

I get what I'm given. Fortunately I usually like it :c)

[ummmm]

Drives me nuts....

It seems the biggest dilemma in my life is what to cook for dinner....

post a "what are you having for dinner" thread, its always a great way of getting meal idea's

I am a good enough cook, but just seem to end up with the same stuff. I have loads of recipe books and we are forever trawling through them. Maybe time to bit the bullet and clear the cupboards of all our normal stuff and think outside the box!

I used to get fed up with constantly having to make the decision about what to cook since the question "would you like x, y or z for supper?" invariably got an ambivalent answer. Now they just get what they are given and that's it.

[ummmm]

Who trim?

Ive posted a chatterbank thread asking what you are all having for dinner, so hopefully get a few ideas from there!

MrsLeeG, I feel your pain and am actually relieved to hear its not just us having this problem. I have started buying a magazine called Woman and Home Dinner Tonight and it has so many fantastic easy recipes its pulling us right out of our rut :)

The trouble with following recipe books is that you see something nice but there always is at least one obscure ingredient or fresh herbs that we haven't always got in and if you get some, you use bit of it and the rest goes to waste.
