This website is awesome. At the top right in the menu bar is recipe sifter. It allows you to find recipes that are narrowed down to what you have on hand, or dietary needs, or a bunch of other things. I love it.

Italian sausage with red sauce on buns or not with Green Peppers in the sauce.

Ground beef, you can make sloppy joes if you have..Tomatoe soup and open pit BBQ sauce.. Add the can of soup to the browned ground beef, with green peppers and onion with a little garlic.. add about 1 table spoon of Open Pitt (if not you can use mustard as well).. simmer for about 20 minutes
\

Boil the pasta. Cook the italian sausage with onion, green peppers, and garlic. Add chopped tomatoes at the very end. Turn off the heat and cover so tomaotes can warm through and begin to soften. Toss that with the pasta, add a little pasta water if it's too dry.

Just keep it simple. Roast the chicken in the oven, have rice or buttered noodles on the side and either microwave some veggies or open a can of peaches/pears.

Sometime when you are more motivated, spend some time online searching for recipes and print out a few that look good. I have one of those binders w/plastic sleeves that I use to save recipes that I like. You'd be surprised how many times it reminds me of something I haven't made in a while. I look at it before going grocery shopping to make sure I have ingredients on hand.

wrap chicken breasts/tenderloins with the bacon, and throw them in a crock pot with bbq sauce. If you have an apple or two, shred them up and put it in there with them. serve with salad or just any random assortment of vegetables on the side

Go to all recipes, and put in your ingredients and get a new recipe. Do this once a week/ once a month to break out of your food rut. You can/ should expand your go to food repertoire.

If the kids are old enough, have them help with the selection/ prep process. we were as young as 3 and allowed to crush garlic, peel potatos, take the tops off the tomatoes, measure spices, etc. using the meat tenderizer, and the cheese grater were super exciting treats. shred lettuce for the salad, work the salad spinner, etc.

Stuffed green peppers.

Stroganoff

Rice and Chicken Bake (YUMMO!)

Baked chicken strips with carrots (raw or cooked) and garlic-butter pasta on the side(good for the picky kiddoes)

Italian sausages cut up into medaillions over seasoned rice

Bacon and eggs (I'm assuming that you have eggs)...this is the easiest, especially if you make the bacon in the oven (375 degrees in a deep pan until done). Or sausages and eggs.

Best of luck!

Meatballs

Do you have a flat cookie cooling rack? Not the kind with legs that stack, but just a short, simple one? Spray it down with cooking spray, and set it on a cookie sheet. This will make the meatballs brown evenly on all sides.

1 lb of ground beef, one egg, 1/4 tsp each or garlic powder and oregano, one slice of bread finely crumbed (food processor is the easiest way to get the right size of crumbs), squish it all together.

Pat the mix out flat on a cutting board, about a half-inch deep. (Actually, it doesn't matter how deep it is, as long as it's uniform.) Now slice it up like you would brownies; I do it about 1 1/2 inch squares. The meatballs are now all the same size, and will cook easier. If you have one that's a little bigger, that's okay - it's your "test" meatball - the one you can slice open to make sure they're done.

Put them on that cookie rack, bake for around 30 min (depending on the size) at 350.

Perfect meatballs, every time.

If you want, you can even make them early and stick them in the fridge until dinner, and plop them into spaghetti sauce to warm them. Leftover meatballs in sauce (if you HAVE leftovers!) are bonus sandwiches tomorrow!

My husband makes what he calls Spanish Rice, and I call yummy!
Essentially, make a "spaghetti sauce" and then instead of putting it over spaghetti or other pasta, mix it into rice.

I think he's used everything you've listed (except the bacon) in a version of Spanish Rice over the years.
Even if you think you don't like Spanish Rice (like I did the first time he made it), you'll like this because the base is your very own spaghetti sauce recipe.

You can serve it as the main dish with sour cream and cheese.
You can roll it up into tortilla's.
You can eat it as a snack on crackers (I loved this when I was pregnant).
You can serve it as a side dish with some other protein.

Stuffed Peppers

(I'd do the italian sausage, but you could do ground beef or chicken instead)

Get the sausage cooking (or other protein).

Chop and saute the onions and garlic with some olive oil. Pour in a couple cups of rice, and saute for a minute or two. Add the tomatoes (chopped if the aren't already). Season with salt and pepper. Allow to cook for a couple more minutes. Add a few cups of chicken stock (or if you don't have bouillon or stock... add water to the pan you cooked your meat in on high, scrape up all the bits, and use THAT water). Chop & Add your protein. Bring to boil. Let sit 20-30 minutes with the lid on.

Cut off the tops of your peppers. Stuff with your rice/veggie/meat combo. Stick in fridge until an hour before you want to eat. Stick 'em in the oven and bake at around 400 until they're hot all the way through and the peppers have cooked. (About 30-60 minutes).

Feel free to toss in any spices when you've got your meat in with the rice & onions & garlic & tomatoes.

Bonus: if you have any cheese, pout a slice or sprinkle on tp of the peppers 10 minutes before you pull them.

We grilled chicken last night...THE best and THE easiest stuff around. We marniate it a few days in the Kraft Tuscan House dressing (we experimented with about 8 kinds and brands of italian dressings in the bottle and this is the best for us), then grill so its tender and not charred.

We do a double amount, and use the leftovers usually the next night or one after for a pasta dish. Tonight it is my fave Archer Farms Grilled Veg Pasta Sauce (Target brand stuf), with the "fancy" pasta noodles we usually get a tthe local farmers market (but now I know I can get online. Spendy, but there is just the 3 of us, and enough for some lunch leftovers. So I warm the sauce with cubed leftover chicken in it...bol noodles and add some shredded parm cheese...simple, quick and YUM. Maybe a salad if we have the fixngs...

Good luck!

Supercook.com! You put in everything in your pantery and it gives you recipes! Love that site! When I feel like we are in a rut or something is going to go bad soon I just go there! (you can also highlight and item and it will only get recipes for you with that item... So if you have leftover xxxx you just highlight and look.)

Take a large piece of tin foil and then put the chicken in it. Along with peppers, onions, and potato, and fold the tin foil around the chicken etc like a bowl. Then put in your favorite seasonings (garlic, onion salt, parsley, and pepper) and about a tablespoon of water and close the "tin bowl"

Everyone can have their own so make one for each person or have two to a bowl whatever you like.

Cook in the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes then check to see how it is coming along. Cook longer until chicken is all the way cooked. It comes out so juicy and tender.

Then serve with bread. Easy and delicious dinner.

You have everything you need to make stir-fry. Just throw it all on a wok, stir it up with some spices, and serve over rice. Quick and easy, and is just one of those things you can mess up!

Home made Pizza!!! If you have Taco leftovers how about Taco pizza?
