Planning our meals has gotten so much easier. I'm sure it will eventually get boring, but for now we are enjoying the home cooked meals. It is embarrassing for me to admit this but I had lost all desire to cook. In return we would eat out almost every night. Now, I enjoy getting in the kitchen again. I plan on trying one new thing each week. It might be a gluten free breading for preparing our meat/fish, or a different vegetable that we wouldn't normally eat, or even a new spice that I don't typically cook with. I am having fun experimenting and seeing how tasty our meals are.
Here are some simple options I came up with:
Shrimp tossed with Olive Oil and Old Bay, then baked in the oven
Brown Rice
Oven roasted Broccoli and Asparagus
Hamburger Steak seasoned with Angelo's Steak Seasoning, cooked on the George Forman Grill
Vegan Mac 'n Cheese (definitely must be an acquired taste)
Oven roasted Zucchini and Squash
Salad topped with nuts
Steak
Mushrooms sautéed with Earth Balance "butter" spread and Aminos (soy-free soy sauce)
Oven roasted Sweet Potatoes
Salad topped with nuts
Vegan Mac 'n Cheese (see tried it again)
Sautéed Spinach with Onions and Chia Seeds
***This has become a favorite lunch or dinner for me***
Chicken Apple Sausage Sandwich
2 pc. Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Egg Free Millet Bread (found at Chamberlain's and it's made fresh locally) toasted and spread with Earth Balance Spread
3 pc. Applegate Chicken Apple Sausage
Quinoa and Black Beans
Salad topped with nuts
Maybe this will help you get some ideas. If you need more information feel free to comment and I will answer any questions you may have.
