How do people cook dinner every single night

Cooking for 7 people every night is getting boring FAST. Especially because half of them make a gigantic fuss about eating it. Idk what to even make anymore. Do people make the same food every week? We are normally an instant noodles family and trying to change that is really rough

Like tonight I’m making a pasta bake thing i found online but prepping the veges for this many people takes forever

I've grown up on eating bread for dinner so I'm not even used to cooked dinners, it's a bit of an odd concept to me. 😅 So cooking dinner is a bit of an event for me, not something usual.

@CrazyMusicLover Only bread? Or sandwiches and that kind of stuff?

@Elessar Like bread/bun/roll is a staple. Bread with butter, ham and vegetable. I quit eating bought tomatoes and most of peppers so it got a bit more difficult but I still manage somehow. Of course, not now, eating bread is difficult. So I eat boiled eggs, potato purée, soup, rice meal, mashed banana...and yeah, pork liver pâté.. 😅

@CrazyMusicLover Whoa, wait, ham every night? 🙈 I try to limit hams, salami and the alike to once a week but more often than not it tends to become bi-weekly

Aw, the other things aren't bad; I can't stand how boiled eggs smell personally but the rest is fine (the paté only w/ moderation tho 😅)

@Elessar It's more like one week there's a lot of ham every day (we don't tend to eat at night here 🤭...well, normally, I just had a piece of ham and a cheese a while ago) and then two weeks without ham maybe. The thing is that if you buy ham, you need to finish it otherwise it will go bad. So that's why I eat it in such manner.

I'm just trying whatever works. I ate fried bacon yesterday because I was so hungry. Luckily, it seems less things hurt today so I had some pasta and even some sweet pastry that I was almost sure it would "tear my tongue apart" 😅 Surprisingly, it didn't.

@CrazyMusicLover Oh yeah. I mean, unless you have a small slicer at home and one of those vacuum sealing machines that you can buy at Lidl for like €35 😌 Generally when I buy it already sliced I go with smallish amounts, like 100g that wouldn't survive the immediate next meal, not to incur in the problem. Raw ham especially gets spoiled fast, when cut (or I'm just hypersensitive to it?)

Aw, and how about softer breads? Like:
Which also goes great with hams and cheeses? 🥴

@Elessar Yes! something like this I had for lunch. 😁 But it was sweet.
