I need some inspiration as I really don't feel like cooking at all, but I always find good ideas when others post so hopefully someone will be having something I can imitate tonight.

Leftovers.

 

Sorry, that's not exactly helpful. The choices of leftovers are taco-flavored quinoa, homemade pizza, stuffed garlic cheese breadsticks, fried catfish, cabbage/onions/potatoes in broth, and Easter eggs. Or peanut butter and jelly.

Pizza delivery probably isn't a very helpful suggestion. We're looking at a house tonight and getting our house ready for the buyers' inspection tomorrow morning, so we need something quick and easy.

It's just me, so I'm making myself a Reuben sandwich without the meat.  Rye bread, lots of (drained) sauerkraut, and some baby Swiss, all heated in a frying pan until the cheese melts.  And some cauliflower zapped in the microwave.  With some grapefruit juice.

Same as we had last night. Hamburgers and hot dogs with potato salad. I'm horribly busy.

 

Tomorrow night I'll roast a whole chicken with potatoes. More lazy.

Leftovers - either turkey from last week or lamb from yesterday.  Either come with mashed potatoes and gravy and rolls.  We might even add a veggie (no leftovers of those).

 

Now that I think about it, it had better be turkey.  That's getting a bit older now.

Tonight is bagel sandwiches with deli chicken and cucumber, strawberries on the side.

Tomorrow is pancakes, eggs, and canadian bacon.

Wednesday will be either goulash or lazy lasagna.

Yesterday was salad with pea shoots, chicken cooked in a pan with sunflower oil, and fresh bread.

fish tacos

 

This is what I decided on even though I've never made them before.  How do you make them and what to you serve with/on them?

Shrimp tacos.

 

I've decided on fish tacos since I have some fish in the freezer to use up.  But I've never made them before.  Can you tell me how you make/serve your shrimp tacos?

Easter leftovers....crispy potato cubes, a wee bit of sweet potatoes and a spoonful of peas, spiral cut ham in homemade buns. I have salad fixings, olives, and raw veggies too.  And cake.  Ho Ho Cake.  Yum!!!

I usually grill them on the indoor grilly thing. I like to make a ginger lime sourcream dressing mixed with pre shredded slaw and corn tortilla's but flour is good too. Fresh or pickled jalapeno's and red onion if you have it, cilantrol.

Sometimes we just do cilantro, onions, fresh and/or pickled jalpeno's and salsa.

I do them similarly. For fish tacos, I usually use something like Mahi Mahi, cod or haddock. Either bake or sautée until done. If I'm using a sauce, I like Frontera (idk what kind, it's in a green package), otherwise tomatillo salsa or just lemon. If shrimp, sautée quickly, either with or without sauce.

 

I serve them in small tortillas with sautéed onions and peppers, grated cheese and avocado, and tomatoes for me. And salad on the side. Quick and simple. :)

Rotisserie Chicken with some odd and end veggies (pea pods, broccoli, onions, zucchini, sweet peppers) stir fried in soy sauce and chinese spices. Takes like 5-7 minutes then toss in pre cooked Udon noodles(took about 10 minutes to cook) for about a minute.  This is one of my cheap and easy meals.  I use up veggies that will likely go bad, 1/2 a chicken (whole chicken $5) and 2 packages of Udon costs about $3. Feeds 4-5 of us.
