DanC_84 Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 You mean each Monday, you eat a certain thing, and each Tuesday, you eat a certain thing, etc? Or do you mean you have a big portion of something and you eat that one thing Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs of the week, then start with a new huge portion of something new at the start of the next wk? For us, just easy pasta tonight. Haha, no I mean I literally have the same meal every night from Monday to Thursday. Every Monday through Thursday night I have exactly the same meal. Week after week. Strange, no?
lexiepiper Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Is there any reason why? And may I enquire as to what the meal is? I think I would get far too bored of any meal to eat it so consistantly
DanC_84 Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Is there any reason why? And may I enquire as to what the meal is? I think I would get far too bored of any meal to eat it so consistantly I am a complete weirdo. My family and girlfriend all think it is ridiculous, and rightly so. Basically, I take a tortilla, pan fry about 150g of chicken breast, add chilli seasoning and enchilada simmer sauce, add it too the tortilla and then top with jallepinos and light cheese and grill it pizza-style for a couple of minutes in the oven. The reason? It is easy, healthy and I like it. I guess I am just one of those strange ppl that can happily eat the same thing day in day out.
DanC_84 Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 That does sound pretty good It is really easy, it only takes me around 15 minutes to cook. Also, I basically do not know how to cook anything else and I don't get to eat until around 8 30 so by that time I just want something that is really easy to make. I am sure at some point I will get sick of it though.
bethany725 Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 I can do a lot of routine eating also, but I tend to get sick of things after a while... and then I can't eat them again for a LONG time. I used to eat the same microwave meal at work everyday for about 2 months. Then I couldn't stand the thought of it. And for lunch every day, I usually have a baked potato with salt and pepper only. But I'm starting to get sick of that.. been doing it about 1 month now. I'm impressed with your ability to stay with what you've been eating for so long.. I always start wanting something different eventually.

I eat with my family or girlfriend Friday through Sunday though so it isn't completely monotonous.
bethany725 Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Well what you're cooking sounds really yummy !
Bronwen Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Pasta bake tonight, with yellow pepper, red onion and mushrooms, with cheese on top mmmm
Chimera Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Since I bravely resisted the lull of take out pasta*, soup and bread it is! But first a bread and chocolate snack. *just discovered a very powerful maketing strategy: make students work on a panzani case study for 5 hours straight and they're bound to run to the nearest pasta shop when they finally escape at dinnertime!
Stephanie2008 Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Chilli and rice for me tonight I'm another one who has a "routine" meal wise. I have the same five meals throughout the week each week but the days can differ. I love the meals we have so why bother having other things
Peacefield Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Scallops gratin for me tonight, YUMMM! Quite a treat (since scallops are kind of pricey) that I drool over starting about a week in advance. Basically it's scallops, white wine, butter, garlic, parsley, s&p with Panco breadcrumbs, all broiled together into a golden heavenly dish!

Rawr Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Pizza last night I really don't know what to have tonight. Maybe mash but i might have pasta with something. Hmm. Choices choices.
Nollaig Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I'm trying to decide.... I'll prolly buy something in the shop on my way home from college.
Stephanie2008 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Mashed potato, tinned tomatoes and bacon.
Rawr Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Just had sweet and sour chicken with rice, was a ready meal though. Might have something else before i go out.
Bronwen Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 We had Shepherd's pie tonight and it was lovely
Bronwen Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Beans,mash and sausages-not very exciting. I love beans, mash and sausages, yum!
DanC_84 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 My younger brother is a fantastic cook and we are all having dinner together tonight. Roast pork with roast potatoes and a pear tart for desert. Very much looking forward to that.
