What's cookin chefs ? What's for dinner tonight ?

Initial thought for title was what's cookin good lookin lol good old song , bad joke though . 

I used to be a really good cook , looked forward to it , but the years go by , and ya run out of ideas . The same old meat , potatoe , potato ,  veggie , vegee thing is getting old  and we have a new wave of keto , IF , plant based , sugar free , lactose free , sweetener free , vegan and the list goes on new lifestyle changes happening across the net .  So I want to try some new recipies . How bout you ? Quick n easy main dishes , healthy clean foods , one pot or two , freezable meals or not , no baking please lol . Sweets not allowed kinda meals . Breakfast lunch or dinner ideas and yup even snack ideas . 

So I plan on trying something new , to try one new recipe a week and I'll post it if it's good with a picture and directions and measurements , maybe even try to put together something new of my own creation .. see arts and crafty lol ha ! 

Looking forward to coming to this site to see what everyone will be cooking too . Hope everyone will post their unique ideas and recipies . Hint hint , favorited love chicken , blueberries , spicy food , very spicy food . also smoothie ideas , anyone have any ? Protein shakes? 

Not so favourites fish , so if anyone has  good fishy ideas we fish catchers only not eaters might try I know I would  love your  ideas as well . 

 

Now my biggest issue might be committment to do so , as I really don't cook as I should or as good as I used to anymore . I usually wing it in the moment more than plan it out , unless it's grocery week  but I'll do my best to remind myself . It will keep my mind sharp if I can force myself to remember lol . 

So far breakfast has been sunny boy 🙂 how simple is that lol .

I am going with "back to basics" tonight - I am cooking pinto beans with oven roasted turkey.  Served with a mexican cornbread muffin.  I might add to the menu later....

Being a single lady, I aim for one pot dishes that are good left-over!

Those look and sound so good ladies . 

I did my 6.4 mile walk and bought a protein bar for the 1/2 way mark . Wow it was actually filling , along with all the water I drank.  Stopped at store to look for fish actually for dinner .  I did that at least , looked lol ... fish just scare me , came home with none . Next time . Will research recipies . 

Dinner tonight is home made chicken soup , a veggie tray with ranch dip , Clementine orange , and chai tea.

Easy peasy .

We're having Chicken Cutlets with Macaroni and peas and a Salad. 

 

How do you like your Cutlets? Thin or Thick? I like mine thin and my wife is a comedian and says she likes them cooked....

Sautee zucchini, red bell pepper, onions, and tomatoes with pork meatballs, pan fried, already too hot at my house to make the meatballs in the oven (which is what I normally do). 

Another option would have been to use the air fryer, which BTW it is awesome, but I would have had to make the meatballs a little sooner in the day and let them rest in the fridge for at least an hour or so.  Didn't have time for that though...

Who wants carbs on the side will have that with bread (probably just mom :))

Are chicken cutlets, just chicken breast?
