[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't. Picky adult eaters have 3 options:

- eat what I make/order/serve
- pick around what I eat/order/serve
- bring or make their own food, and clean up after themselves.[/quote]

OP here. I think I’m ready to go into this mode.

And to another PP’s point, yes it really is a lot for a week of cooking for two houseguests (all meals and snacks) and at least 4 “bigger dinners” with the other visitors. My nuclear family alone is 5 people, so even the volume for 9 people is challenging, plus on top of that I do at least one meal where my local cousin and her family of 5 comes over as well. So even grilling is quite a volume game.

I can’t even ask DCUM for advice because the typical “baked ziti” and “chicken shawarma” will not work for my Dad especially. [/quote]

This sounds more like you are overwhelmed with all of the cooking, rather than the particular foods (baked potatoes are pretty easy every night.)  Why don't you ask local brother to pick up a meal for one of the nights.  Your local cousin can potluck with you.  It isn't like somehow the foods that you would otherwise cook are easier than meat and potatoes.  You are just resentful about the work.[/quote]
