What do you do when you feel like you're cooking the same stuff over
and over again for dinner? My food is half way decent and I don't
particularly enjoy cooking. I cook because home cooked food is
healthier and cheaper.
So when you are in a culinary rut what do you do to get inspired?

Last night while sitting in my chair
I pinged a host that wasn't there
It wasn't there again today
The host resolved to NSA.

Watch some cooking shows on PBS on the weekend and try to make a few new
dishes.

Hiya
Yes, I remember reading that usually the main meal maker in the house
will cycle through about 20 recipes.
If I am that bored I either try get DH to bring dinner home, or I go to
the shops to look for a different cut of meat / vegetables than what I
normally get.
I only have about 4 thickish recipe books, and I may take a whirl
through that.
not much help :(
