Have a House Default Meal

Sometimes the worst part of cooking is choosing what to cook. When I was in law school, we decided that in my house, if we couldn’t decide what to eat, we’d make rice in the rice cooker, roast whatever veggies we had on high heat in the oven with some olive oil and salt, and that’s dinner. Everyone can add whatever extras they want, beans or cheese, pesto, salsa, whatever. Maybe in your house default meal is soup and cheese toast or a big salad with chicken nuggets. Who cares! Just find something easy that wouldn’t kill you if you ate it every day and remember that sometimes you just need to eat dinner.
