Coming up with dinner ideas

Following! Sometimes my brain works and I can come up with something other times it’s a struggle and it’s time to order take out haha

My go to is Pinterest for new dinner ideas if I like it I'll write it down an put in my binder for meals. I also use supercook app that I put ingredients that I already have at home an will load up meals.
But usually I do any type of Mexican for Tuesdays an sat/sun either out to eat or leftovers

I found this the other day and it looks super helpful! I’m going to write this down for myself too and add some extra meals which will come in my mind

Pinterest, or we rotate through a list of favorites like lasagna soup or chicken pot pie gnocchi otherwise it’s frozen/canned

But if you type meal prep spreadsheet on tiktok search there will be a lot of similar ones

Pinterest for recipes usually. Altho I’ve really been trying to base menus off of what we have rather than getting ingredients for stuff I want to make 😫

Personally I go onto apps such as Gousto or hello fresh. I go to “order” a box. A lot of the recipes you see you can see the ingredients and recipe for free so I save them or screenshot!! Get a delivery and do it at home

Pinterest is where I got my inspo and sometimes tic tock

I like the app mealime or even just getting ideas from Instagram. But mealime is nice since it creates a grocery list when you create a menu and can even connect to local grocery stores to do a pick up or delivery order.

We do spaghetti Monday, manwich tuesday, hamburger helper on Thursday, etc. Wednesday is wildcard where everyone gets to pitch in for an idea or we just grab a pizza

I look up recipes on Tik Tok! I love the visual of them showing the dish.

We plan 3 meals a week and double the meals so it comes out to 6. Usually, our ideas are seasonal and are based on how much capacity I have to cook lol. Due to summer and me being full time in school, summer is less complicated lol:
Burgers, fries
Brats, salad
Pasta salad with pepperoni, veggies, high protein pasta, feta, and balsamic vinaigrette
Chicken wraps (using chicken strips or rotisserie chicken and different sauces like caesar, ranch, buffalo, bbq to mix it up),
Potato, veg sheet pan with sausage or ham for protein
Homemade naan pizzas
