Food funk - So bored
So I'm completely bored with food.
I can eat about 0.5 - 0.75 cups of food per meal. Which is pretty darn good! However, I'm so BORED with protein, and I don't even long for carbs. I don't get hungry (yet) like I used to and I know I need to get some food into me....
Anyone have some jazzy little recipes that they can share? I long for a little flavour and pizzaz in my bits of food!

ORRRRrrrr
Meatza
1 ½ lb ground beef or ¾ lb ground beef mixed with
¾ lb Italian-style sausage
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tsp dried oregano or Italian seasoning(optional)
8 oz pizza sauce
Parmesan or Romano cheese (optional)
8 oz shredded mozzarella
Toppings-you choose (peppers, onions, mushrooms, or whatever you like)
Olive oil (optional)
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl and with clean hands, combine the meat with the onion and garlic, and a teaspoon of oregano or Italian seasoning. Mix well.
3. Pat the meat mixture out in an even layer in a 9 x 12-inch baking pan. Bake for 20 minutes.
4. When the meat comes out, it will have shrunk a fair amount, because of the grease cooking off. Pour off the grease and spread the pizza sauce over the meat. Sprinkle the Parmesan on the sauce (if using), and then distribute the shredded mozzarella evenly over the sauce.
5. Top with whatever you like: green peppers, banana peppers, mushrooms, olives. You could use meat toppings, such as sausage and pepperoni, but they seem a little redundant since the bottom layer is meat.
6. Drizzle the whole thing with a little olive oil.
7. Put your Meatza! 4 inches below a broiler set on High. Broil for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and starting to brown.
