Bored of food

Magnolia1
over 5 years ago

I have such a narrow range of things that I eat I am so bored of food. I need ideas of how I can make new combinations of what I eat. 

I normally do roasts, spaghetti Bolognese, quiche, pie 

I like stew but I got a slow cooker for Christmas and cooked a disastrous one.

I don't like anything too spicy. I eat v mild curry. If I have Chinese I always order the same.

I don't like the taste of alcohol.

I eat:

Broccoli, carrot , green beans, as long as they are cooked within an inch of their lives

Peppers, courgette,  onion if cooked til not crunchy

Potatoes

Meat as long as it doesn't look like it comes from an animal

Cheese

Eggs 

Pasta

Cereal

I like fresh bread but I don't like sandwiches unless they are toasted

    Hi, one of my special interests is diet & nutrition. Your diet is not that restrictive and can provide all the nutrients you need, but it's a shame you don't enjoy it much. Perhaps if you try different recipes you will start to like food more.

    My immediate thought though was, what do you mean by meat that doesn't look like it came from an animal? Do you mean boneless joints and fillets? Do you eat burgers, sausages, bacon or ham? Also, do you like different types of potato (chips, wedges, new potatoes, etc) If so, I have the following suggestions:

    Toasted bacon or ham sandwiches with Cheesy baked courgettes 

    Cheese & red pepper omelette with potato wedges

    100% beef burgers with chunky chips & broccoli in cheese sauce

    Hunters chicken with baked onions, peppers & courgettes, and boiled new potatoes

    Lasagne & baked potato with Cheese 

    Pasta carbonara with green beans

    Sausages, carrots & mash with onion gravy

    Hope something there inspires you - bon appetite!
