Hi, Jenn! This is my first visit to your blog!

If you have not yet tried Chicken and Wild Rice Supreme you should check it out! It’s one of our favorite’s and does pretty darn well frozen and reheated, so we can make a double or triple batch and use it later!

Jenn, The Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond, has some really good tasty recipes on her website. She shows simple step by step instructions with a picture for each step. I have tried several of her recipes and my family enjoyed the ones I have made. I hope this helps your quest to get out of the rut. We are having nachos for dinner tonight since I have a half a Cosco size can of cheese and 5 lbs of tortillia chips leftover from our halloween party!!! I will cook ground beef, season as for tacos, add whole, well drained pinto beans, sour cream and homemade pico de gallo on top:)I will be trying the chard when I go shopping next, I even got my sister thinking of trying it!!

Julie-Well, here is hoping we both get some great new recipes!

Amyrlin-Sounds like you have some great plans for dinner! If you like spinach then you should try chard. The leaves are a pot green, spinach like, and you can blanche the stems and eat them. I grow them in the garden because they don’t bolt in hot weather like spinach, and they last into the frost of the fall.

Jenn, I made chicken tacos the other night with a rotisserie chicken, pico de gallo, and cheese. Yumm!! I am also considering making oyster stew for dinner since they are in season, not too frugal unless I use canned boiled oysters, Not recipes but maybe it gave you something to think about differently. I am going to try chard, I never had it before:)

No recipes for you to try. I just wanted to say that I, too, feel as though I’m making the same things over and over. As I sit down to make each week’s plan, I have the whole month before me and I can tell how long ago I made a particular dish, it just seems repetitive. Maybe some of your new recipes will jumpstart things for me, too.
