And you only ever eat two kinds? Because OP is looking for options, not nonstop carnivorousness. Anyway. Duck breast Ground lamb (cooked with aromatics and spices, served in pita with yogurt sauce) Chicken thighs (bone in, skin on) Some kind of beef that can be braised (probably chuck roast) Boneless, skinless chicken breasts for desperation nights Pork tenderloin, just roasted Skirt steak |

I buy:
Boneless chicken skinless thighs Chicken breast Ground chicken Turkey Italian sausage Ground turkey Salmon Cod |
| We do ground turkey taco night every other week (brown 1 pound of ground turkey, drain, then stir in an 8 oz can of tomato sauce and taco seasonings to taste) with taco fixings (cheese, sour cream, salsa, etc) and hard/soft tortillas and as a salad for me. Id do it once a week but that is too much for the rest of the family. |

Ground beef - smash burgers, bolognese sauce or lasagna, meatballs, stuffed green peppers, meat pies
Thin sliced chicken breasts or chicken breasts- chicken piccata or Parmesan, schnitzel, chicken pot pie Filet Mignon- sous vide with sides, cut in half/sous vide and served on pretzel buns with horseradish mayo, carmelized onions and Swiss cheese Chicken thighs- slow cooked and shredded for tacos, sheet pan whatever, pan seared with vinegar and ketchup Pork Shoulder- slow cooked for pulled pork bbq or Mexican, ground up for egg rolls, dumplings or Dan Dan noodles Flank steak - fajitas, added to salads or omelets Shrimp - grilled, pan seared, stir fry, tacos, shrimp cakes with lemon aioli |
How do you do all this and how long does it take you every day? |
| We don't buy 7. We buy chicken and beef, and we only buy things on the current sale flyer from the grocery. |
I go to a small supermarket close to my house most of the time and they always have oxtails in the freezer. I've wondered about them but they are very expensive. If I were to try them out, what would you recommend? |
Different poster, but I make them in a long, slow braise. This is a good recipe: https://www.thekitchn.com/jamaican-oxtail-recipe-23751131 Or a simple braise with onion, garlic, red wine, and thyme. The key is several hours at low heat, or a pressure cooker. The meat should fall apart when it's ready. |
