Anything good for dinner tonight?

We are in a FOOD rut.  Nothing sounds good for dinner.  Seems like I make the same old things over and over.  I've been perusing some recipes online and thought I'd see what you all are doing for dinner.  I have to go to the store later so, I'm trying figure something out!  

I'm always in a food rut, my biggest problem is neither David or I like to cook....you'd think at least one of us would like to cook as much as we like to eat!

hows about something on the grill like shish kabobs? have your famous grilled eggplant as a side?

I actually did think about shish kabobs.  Famous grilled eggplant?  You must be mistaken.  

I thought you were grilling it with olive oil and garlic for a while a few summers ago.  hmmm, maybe that was that other girl....

Here's our dinner menu for this week:

Sun-Steaks on the grill

Mon-Chicken Mug pie

Tues- Stuffed peppers

Wed-Chicken and orzo

Thurs- sandwiches on Arnold thins and marinated veggie salad

Fri- fish sticks

Sometimes rice and pasta bother me, so I will just eat the meat chunks and the guys will eat the rest.

OMG...Brenda, I am embarrassed to tell you that I read this stupid thing about 4 times before I realized you weren't making "sun-steaks on the grill".  I was like WTH are sun steaks?  DOY!  

I may do the stuffed peppers this week.  I forget about them.  

BTW, we had shrimp, tortellini and spinach.  Found the recipe on Kraft.com.  AJ really liked it.  I liked it, too, but I may make it with chicken next time.

HA HA HA......I did the exact  same thing Tina.  I was going to ask Brenda what a sun steak was - LOL!!  I have to say I'm impressed Brenda that you have a menu for the whole week!!  I never know what I'm cooking for dinner day to day.  I'm impressed, I need to be more like you and plan!!

Don't be impressed.  I'm a mess.  I plan on Saturday for the upcoming week so I can grocery shop.  But, I have all these weird food issues.  I can only eat what I "feel" like eating.  Usually, what I planned for the day is not what I want to eat, so I have cottage cheese for dinner while the guys eat whatever I make.  Plus, I have to plan around softball and appointments and when I get off work early.  Early days get better dinner, softball days get sandwiches.

Nick has to have a low sodium, low fat diet, so that means I can't make a lot of frozen (meaning "easy") stuff.

I also have to plan two different soups each week for Nick's lunch.  That is what gives me problems.  I have a million soup recipe books, but can never decide which ones to make.

I cooked a bunch of stuff this weekend.  But I didn't eat any of it for dinner tonight.  I went for deli-sliced turkey (Jennie-O peppered turkey), some grapes and a couple cheesesticks. It's my favorite warm-weather meal. 

I've got soup and salad for lunches this week.  Did a shrimp, mushroom and wild rice soup that's super delicious.  Salad is just mixed baby greens, matchstick carrots and grapes tomatoes. 

I picked a few cherries at my parent's house tonight and want to get a cobbler or something made tonight (but I'm running out of time and steam).  I also made Atkins high protein chocolate chip cookies and had a couple of those for my afternoon snack.
