Feeling uninspired - meal ideas please!
Preferably with a minimal amount of ingredients, cheap, easy and fast to prepare and generally healthy for us.
I'm having a hard time making our menu for the week!
Re: Feeling uninspired - meal ideas please!
This is my favorite chili recipe:

And a great black bean soup recipe:

This week we are having:
BLT's, chips, veggie
Tacos, salad
Kielbasa, pierogies, veggie
BBQ Chicken, baked beans, veggie
And breakfast for dinner is always a fun option!
Crockpot Salsa Chicken is extremely easy and we love it:
Grease crockpot and put in boneless/skinless chicken breast
Mix together 1 jar chunky salsa and 1 can cream of chicken soup and pour over chicken
Cook on low 6-8 hours and serve over rice pilaf
Salsa chicken is my go-to fast and easy supper:
Cut chic breast into bite size pieces, cook in a sprayed frying pan. Turn heat to medium and add frozen corn once chicken is cooked. Then add salsa (we use most of a 16 oz jar), chopped/torn black olives, jalapenos if you like spicy- cook until everything's warmed.
Add shredded taco/nacho/jack cheese to the pan or individual servings. We sometimes eat it rolled in whole wheat tortillas, or in bowls with tortilla chips. It takes like 15 minutes, all ingredients are kinda eyeballed, to your liking.
