Dinner Ideas?

Ok, I have chicken breasts, new potatoes (white and red), I have various cheeses, herbs, ground beef, I am not in the mood for pasta, I’m pretty sure I want to do something with the potatoes but I have no idea what.

Edit

I ended up making this.

Chili Goodness!

Last night I made chili in the crockpot and as an side, made these awesome chili cheese muffins from a recipe Martyn sent me!! I will totally have to make those again!

Breakfast

I desperately need new breakfast ideas. I normally eat cereal or scrambled eggs with toast. I am very sick of both lol. I need fast easy ideas since I typically eat it at work (the joy of being at work before 8am). I do not like oatmeal lol. So help me!

Biscuit Pizzas

Probably not the healthiest dinner…

Uhhh More Pictures Yay

I just haven’t had the ability to write actual entries lately so more photos joy! This was my breakfast this morning. Two organic white peaches, some organic pecans, and some cubed up cheddar.

Dinner August 20^th

Penne with homemade chunky marinara sauce and shredded chicken from a rotisserie chicken I had bought last night, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese, Daniel and I made peanut butter cookies for his dessert. (I do not like cookies ‘cept for sugar cookies)

Dinner August 27^th

Banana Muffins, recipe from Nikki and very nummy. We also have roast beef studded with a lot of garlic and paprika, roasted on top of a whole sweet onion cut up. Acorn squash and a simple salad with tomato and red onion with a nummy vinaigrette from my lovely cookbook, Nigel Slater — Appetite.

Dinner August 29^th

I apologize for so many dinner entries, just unable to form any thoughts that make sense other than GLITTER RULES!!

So tonight is roasted cubed sweet potatoes, jarred pasta sauce layed with eggplant and fresh mozzarella cheese, the salad is coated in that nummy rich dressing I made from my new favorite cookbook from Nigel Slater — Appetite.

Recipes

You can put this in the oven at the same time since it cooks at the same rate.

Roasted Sweet Potato Cubes
1 large sweet potato
Salt
Freshly cracked black pepper
2 – 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Turn the oven on to 450°

You can keep the skin on (I always do) or peel it for the sweet potato, just cut it in half, then slice it into strips and cut into large cubes. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Put into a roasting dish and into the oven until the tops are brown and you can easily cut through with a spoon.

Eggplant Tomato Cheesy Goodness

1 Jar premade pasta sauce
1 large eggplant
1 medium size ball of fresh mozzarella

Pour about 1/2 cup of the sauce into the bottom of your dish. Slice the eggplant into ¼ — ½ rounds. Layer some eggplant rounds and mozzarella chunks, then cover with more sauce, and keep layering ending with cheese on top. Bake until brown and bubbly on top.

Dinner August 30^th

Tonight’s dinner is fresh parsley and garlic pasta with grilled chicken, fresh torn basil, fresh mozzarella, one chopped up shallot, red and orange organic cherry tomatoes and a bit of veggie broth. I just tossed everything together no specific amounts.
