Will someone please tell me what to make for dinner? I am so sick of planning dinner this time of year. I took out boneless chicken again. Maybe it won't defrost in time and we'll have to eat out. Now we're talking!

I ended up using a McCormick spice and just baking the darn chicken.

Stir fry sounds good, but I didn't see this before I made dinner. What is Jasmine rice?

Jasmine rice is an aromatic rice from Thailand. I gave up long grain white rice altogether after eating this. It's still white, and still long, but, hmmm....aromatic and delicately fragrant is about my descriptural limit. Try it. I'm lucky enough to get mine at Wal-Mart. A good Oriental store would have it, too. We love it.

I hate planning dinners. I never know what kind of "hungry" mood my dh is going to be in. Sometimes he's in a really picky mood. I usually try to have a few things as an option so we can play the "do you want this or this or this" for dinner tonight game. Sometimes I just can't make a decision to save my life and I freak (a little bit) over having to make dinner. Then it's the "who's delivering tonight" game.

I just wish there were more delivery to choose from. We have Pizza, Chinese, or Sandwiches. I wish I could get Mexican food delivered. Now that would be good.

Vicki, I'm with you. Just tell me what to make and I'll make it. I like to cook, but I don't like planning unless it's a holiday or for company. It's the day in and day out menus that I hate.

Let's see, how many ways can I serve boneless chicken?

So far this week:

I baked a batch of boneless chicken and we had it with beans and salad.

Then we had it shaved in a salad with all kinds of good veggies.

Tonight it will be cut up and used in chicken enchiladas.

Then I think it will be gone. I hope so!

Maybe my first book should be '200 ways to cook chicken'

My husband said he was going to grow feathers, I cooked chicken so often.

I just pull out a cook book and go from there. I've found some great recipes from The 60 Minute Gourmet. Easy and yummy!

Sometimes I type in the foods I want to use for dinner on Google. It's amazing the recipes you can find at your finger tips.

For those of you that hate cooking but love a good delicious meal that tastes like you've been slaving in the kitchen all day, try the new:

BERTOLLI'S FROZEN MEALS....In kid you not. You all kow I am an excellent cook and when I like something frozen it has to be superb. There are 5 to try. A shrimp scampi w/pasta, or 4 other dishes, all come in a bag. Just heat and eat....Let me know how you like them. [Razz]
