I am trying to get some new ideas for dinners this week that both my husband and I will like. He is kind of a picky eater so it makes it hard to fix something easy on my stomach that he will enjoy, too. Any suggestions? Easy...quick...and delicious...

I use about 18 large (20/lb) shrimp for the two of us and use the same amount of sauce because we love it so much.

Sounds wonderful Sharon...but my husband can't eat shrimp...they are too rich for him. His system can't tolerate some seafood. I might try it sometime, though and make something else for him. I love seafood!

Does your husband like chicken?
If so these two recipes of Heather's are really easy with very little preparation.
Easy Peachy Chicken Breasts
Five Spice Chicken
We really like them both.

Hello Nugget!
Here is a favorite:
I love sweet potatoes (with white flesh)microwaved for about 5 min on each side. I take the peel off of mine. Then I cut them in to chips (I guess we call them fries here) and bake them until they are to your liking. Then I plate them up and pour ketsup all over them. I fix these every week for my grandma and I and we also love to eat these cold.
Since I am new to all of this I am still learning.
What are some of your favorites?

I am a creature of habit, so once I find my favorites, I tend not to stray, I have a couple, for instance, I often have for dinner rather than breakfast; Egg Beaters w/a sourdough english muffin with strawberry jam and banana, a favorite dinner would be Boca burgers with rice or Heather's New Potatoe recipe. I also do alot with Canned Chicken Breast only (not mixin chicken!) Swanson's brand. It is good cold on bagels as well as warm with rice and steamed veggies. Hope this helps!
