HELP! Seriously, help me. Can you guys direct me to a place, a book, a person maybe who can help me with my meals? I am so tired of cooking the same old thing.. I need meals I can rotate around from week to week..
Any ideas??
My husband is somewhat picky and really only loves ground beef or chicken of some sort. He's not making my job any easier!!
I'd also love to keep my grocery list as minimal as possible. I hate having to go to the store for all the different spices and parsley and this and that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I'm no help at all...I need the same thing! And my husband is picky too, so I feel your pain!
Rach, go to www.bhg.com, there are different recipies under different sections. There's fast and easy, crock pot, healthy. I find a whole bunch of stuff there. Or Pampered Chef's website is good for fast and easy, too. Also, Kraft foods' website has a meal plan and shopping list put together for you already. Their meals are always very easy. I have found that to be very helpful. Hope that helps!
Here is a recipe my Mom just sent me today! She said it was good and not too hard to make.
Enjoy!
It's Yummy You will need:
1lb (skinless ) chicken thighs1 large zucchini, cut into cubes
1 16 oz can garbanzo beans
1 15.5 oz can diced tomatoes
chopped fresh cilantro for garnish
You will also need:
1/2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup chicken stock or water ( I used 1/2 c chicken stock and 1/2 c water to =1 cup)
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
TOSS IT TOGETHER
Place oil in a large saute pan or wide pot over medium-high heat
Season chicken with salt and black pepper, and cook in pan until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Add zucchini and continue cooking, stirring often. When zucchini pieces have browned lightly,add garbanzo beans, tomatoes, chicken stock,cayenne pepper,cumin, and cinnamon.
Turn heat to low and simmer until chicken is tender and cooked thoroughly, 10-15 min.
Optional: Season to taste with more salt and pepper; garnish with cilantro.I chose not to add more salt/pepperand it was perfect. The cilantro adds so much flavor.
makes 4 servings. Per serving:424 cal, 15 g fat(3 g sat), 41 carbs, 614mg sodium, 7g fiber, 31g protein
ON THE SIDE: Cook 1/2 cup couscous per package instructions and mix with 2 Tbsp golden raisins, 2 tbsptoasted pine nuts and 1/4 cup chopped cilantro Makes 4 servings, Per serving: 61 cal, 1.5 g fat,(0g sat), 11 g carbs, 16 mg sodium, 2 g fiber, 1 g protein I didn't do the (ON THE SIDE ) portion as I had no couscous. I served the stew in a bowl and almost forgot the cilantro, glad I remembered, it was wonderful !!! Took hardly no time to make, no fuss work.......Hope you & your family enjoy it, as we did!!!
