[quote=Anonymous]Rotate through the following "themes" for each night and and eat the leftovers or a pbj/grilled cheese for lunch the next day.  I've given you 13 here, so just pick one each day and go out every other week!

Breakfast for dinner (eggs, pancakes, french toast, smoothies, whatever with some fruit.  Be fancy and get a box of soy sausage if you want).

Soup and good bread (salad too if you want)

Eggs: egg salad sandwich, scrambled eggs with veggies, quiche (buy premade crust, check to see if it has lard if you care about that), shakshusha/eggs in purgatory

Pasta: lasagna, baked ziti, pasta salad, or just pasta with sauce

Veggie burgers: easy to make yourself if you have a food processor. Serve with salad, baked beans, corn on the cob, etc.

Curry (include chickpeas or lentils) with rice or naan

Fried rice or stir-fry over rice (go for a can of coconut milk and some thai chili paste for something different)

Mexican-ish: burritos, quesadillas, rice & bean bowls with veggies

Tofu/fake meat night: Fun to experiment, though not the healthiest to eat every night.  I like quorn and morningstar farms the best.

Pizza: get a pizza stone.  Trader Joe's and safeway sell pre-made dough.

Thanksgiving side dishes: stuffing, cranberry sauce, greens, sweet potatoes, etc.  I don't miss turkey when I get all the other good stuff.

Grains/beans/veggie bowl: you can make lots of different combinations.  Really, anything with this combo can be a good meal.  Put a fried egg or some cheese on top for some extra fat, protein, and taste.

Ethiopian food.  Plenty of places in DC to buy injera and berbere.  I like to make some cooked greens (gomen), some spicy lentils (misir wot), and some cabbage and carrots (atakilt wot) to eat with it.  It doesn't taste like a restaurant (probably less butter and salt, though) but it's something different.
