Dinners...why are they always a challenge?


We had ingredients, yet Kayla and I stood in the kitchen for 15 minutes yesterday trying to figure out what to make. After all that time debating we came up with a standard, chicken, broccoli and brown rice. I sauteed 2 tomatoes, garlic, basil and a handful of lettuce in a bit of chicken broth after the chicken was done cooking to give a bit of moisture to the chicken. It was good, but nothing fancy.


I find we get into to ruts with dinners. Even now that I am actively thinking about our meals, I still get stumped with dinner. Part of the problem is that Troy is a good cook so we have high standards for dinner. When he gets inspired with a recipe, it is amazing - but he needs to be in the mood. It also does not help that our girls (me included - but not as bad) are not very adventurous when it comes to food. Our youngest is very picky - she won't even eat corn!


So it's lunch time and I am thinking about dinner.
