I am getting sick of grilled chicken! What do you guys have for dinner?

[ghost]

My favorite dinner is pita pizza. I get whole wheat Pita bread (150 calories), some pizza sauce (30 calories for 1/4 cup) and mozzarella cheese (80 calories for 1 oz) and bake it on 350 for 10 minutes...sooo good, and the kid likes it to. Pair it with a salad and a glass of vino and you have yourself a good dinner.
when I'm in a bind I make a sandwich with lots of veggies. When I feel really ambitious I grill some fish and steam some veggies.

I've been making a lot of fish lately. I also tend to alter recipes I'd already been using. Use lite this, fat free that, sub this, exclude that.

I like using corn tortillas (4 inch), heating some fat free refried beans with a little water and taco seasoning and spreading that on the tortilla with pizza sauce or salsa on top of that, then cheese and whatever veggies. Then baking at 425 or so for a few. The kids eat the heck outta them.

I don't know what diet you're on, low carb or low cal, but I often just have a cup of whole wheat rotini pasta with tomato garlic herb sauce and a small salad. I eat a lot of sandwiches. I love low-fat cheese sandwiches with tomatoes from my garden. I use just a little pat of butter, because I can't stand grilling with the I can't beleive it's not butter spray. Steak fajitas are a nice change. I just go real easy on the meat and heavy on the vegis, same with tacos. I got so sick of chicken like three months ago. I am finally starting to come around again. We did a lot of drunk chicken with tequila, lime, and jalapenos.

A fairly wide variety really

- Risottos - usually with things like smoked chicken, roasted pumpkin, sweet potato or tomato, sundried tomato, baby spinach, mushrooms etc etc - leave out the parmesan, butter and cream though!

- Pasta with homemade mince based sauces or plain tomato sauces, or sweet chilli sauce tossed through plain pasta with one raw egg etc

- Shepards pie, cottage pie - all the kinds without pastry bases

- Salads - all varieties with baby leaves, various lettuces, tomatos, cucumbers, capsicums, carrots, sugar snap peas, shaved parmesan or low-fat feta with grilled chicken, beef, kangaroo, pork etc

- Steam or grilled fish with cous cous salads

- Stews or slow-cooked braises with polenta

- Roasts i.e. chicken, pork, beef with roast veggies and gravy

- Homemade burgers with fillets of chicken, pork, roo or beef etc

I lurve dinner

[leighish]

but the parm, butter, and cream are what make risotto so dang good!!!

I'm not much help. I'm on the getting-sick-of-grilled-chicken boat myself these days. But that pita pizza someone mentioned sounds awesome.

[golfinchick8]

Salmon fillets on the grill are amazing!!

I also like to make pizza using whole wheat tortillas. I just bake the tortilla for about 7 minutes and then add the toppings so it is like a thin crust pizza.

yummm!

Check out the recipe section here - they have some pretty good ideas. Also, try web searching healthy entrees - you may find something that intrigues you. That's what I've been resorting to after months of eating the same thing every day.

Canned tuna!! I've always liked it.

[bananapancakes]

All kinds of weird and wonderful salads- including lot's of fruit ones often with chicken but, you can take the chicken out.

I like fish- sushi, smoked salmon, whatever takes my fancy really.

Grilled veggies.

I love stir frys and they can be made healthier. Just look around the net for info.

Baked potato/sweet potato.

Couscous- can be cooked in a million different ways or you can buy the couscous at the supermarket that already has flavoring and stuff in it.

Some lean steak. pork or whatnot.

There are so many things, I could go on all day.

Hope something here helps.

Btw, do you put any marinade on your chicken or do you just leave it plain when you grill it?

I have made a "hobby" out of collecting recipes because I love to cook. I search my recipes dot com for the Cooking Light recipes, I get recipes out of WW magazine or Kraft Food and Family magazine (kraft foods dot com).

I have tons of recipes that I've converted into Weight Watchers recipes, but I also have the nutrition info listed on many of them. Let me know if you want anything specific, and I'll see if I have something.

Here's my favorite though:

Thanks guys, that definitely helps. I've made those meat loaf muffins and I loooveee them!

One of my favorites is putting some chicken in a crockpot with BBQ sauce and onions. By the end of the day the chicken is so tender.

bananapancakes - I usually marinade my chicken or at least season it. I'm just eating so much of it lately..I'll bring leftovers for lunch and then have more grilled chicken for dinner.
