Great Cook, Terrible Eater
Okay, I need some dinner ideas like tomorrow. I am the primary cook in our home and I’m tired of like the 20-30 dishes we always rotate. I need something new, I’ve been on TikTok and Pinterest in search for some inspiration. No luck.
The problem I face is not accomplishing the dish itself, it’s a problem everyone else enjoys the meal but me. I have a huge aversion to chicken and cooked fish, I can eat them better when someone else makes them but there’s no chance when I do. By the time I prep and smell it cooking I’m done.
What are some relatively easy dinners (so I’ll want to make them regularly) that maybe wouldn’t taste too chicken-y with simple prep? Fish I just gave up making at home because once the house smells I’m done, almost same with bacon.
Any recommendations?
Our regular meals:
Cheeseburger sliders
Pasta Bolognese
Southwest Pork Chops
Pot Roast
Shredded Beef Enchiladas
Chili
Fajita quesadillas

Chicken pot pie (I have a hard time eating)

Taco salad
This is all I can think of for now…no
