But you may need to run the hood fan if you have meat smell problems. I do a super fast meal where I toss a bag of frozen green beans with salt pepper and garlic powder with olive oil, then top with a pork tenderloin that's been slathered with Dijon mustard, salt and pepper, and whatever herb you have. Roast at 400 for 30 minutes, let the meat rest for 5 minutes, slice up and serve with whatever carb you want. Buttered noodles would be good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2102251 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 11:40:37 +0000 hellobeeboston 2102251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: hopefully the nausea passes quickly for you!!! I also did a lot of Mac &amp; cheese, pizza, and easy stuff for a few weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2102242 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 11:32:19 +0000 hilsy85 2102242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: we live in the city and don't have a grill here unfortunately! Otherwise that would be great. </p> <p>Thanks everyone. Luckily, I'm not SUPER nauseous, it's mostly just vague yuckiness and some foods make it worse. And I rarely have the energy to cook! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2102227 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 11:22:29 +0000 gingerbebe 2102227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I grilled a lot of different meats on Sunday and sliced them up and put them in the fridge with a grain like brown rice and a few sweet potatoes I baked on the coals after grilling the meat and had DH pick and choose with a side of frozen veggies during the week. I usually made a tri tip, a sausage, and a pork tenderloin or chicken with some easy marinade or seasoning. My DH doesn't know how to grill but if yours does that can be something you can have him do. My tastes changed every five seconds so I just ate what I felt like. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2102048 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:48:23 +0000 blackbird 2102048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: Sounds like my husband! We go through a lot of Cheerios in our house, and only one person actually eats them!.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2102035 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:42:16 +0000 namaste 2102035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH had take out most nights and so did I when I could stomach it. Otherwise it was just crackers for me lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2102028 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:40:10 +0000 Anagram 2102028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: I've had so many days where I texted my husband and told him if he wanted something other than a sandwich or cereal for dinner, he better eat at work before leaving (they have a cafeteria that offers pretty healthy things). There are some days where I just can't smell ANYTHING. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2102024 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:38:45 +0000 erwoo 2102024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Take out? Slow cooker meals? Casserole meals? Hope it passes for you soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2102004 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:32:25 +0000 hilsy85 2102004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: ha he would probably end up rotating between cereal and pasta with butter sauce. He has the eating habits of a 15 year old if left to his own devices, thanks to a doting MIL :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101938 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 08:55:22 +0000 LuLu Mom 2101938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH ate a LOT of frozen food my first trimester, I just couldn't stomach handling meat, ect. On the days I felt better, I would whip up meals that he could eat for a few days so I didn't have to cook. He was understanding but I felt bad too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101931 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 08:53:06 +0000 blackbird 2101931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: Meh, he's a big boy. He knows how to make food :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101444 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 20:39:40 +0000 hilsy85 2101444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: I should check out TJs frozen stuff! </p> <p>I feel bad letting dh just fend for himself for every dinner :( I will just have to figure it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101328 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 19:34:22 +0000 mrsjyw 2101328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did a lot of carry out and Dh fending for himself this time around. </p> <p>I usually did okay making a pasta dish of some sort. But most of the time it was cooking TJ's food! Hope the nausea passes quickly for you!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101241 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 18:27:19 +0000 NovBaby1112 2101241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not much help- we've been doing lots of Mac n cheese, fish sticks, pasta dishes, and frozen steamed veggies, fruit, etc. Poor DH has to fend for himself most nights, I'm just not in the mood for our typical dinners! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101236 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 18:24:10 +0000 blackbird 2101236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>PBJ. Turkey sandwiches. Pasta. Fend for yourself while I sit around sipping Gatorade LOL. Asian foods always worked well for me so we did some chinese or korean. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101181 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 17:52:19 +0000 travelgirl1 2101181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I banned garlic from the house altogether, I just omit it from recipes at the moment. I did a lot of baked potato, cheese and beans and pasta bake (jarred sauce). For lunches LO had peanut butter on toast for months. What helped me is DH cooked up a few big batches of meals at the weekend and I just reheated them through the week. Good luck, cooking with MS is so tough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101141 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 17:34:17 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2101141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've stopped cooking. I don't have a toddler to cook for so I don't feel bad about it. We've been eating plenty of cereal and takeout. I can't stand to open the fridge, much less touch meat. Hopefully I'll feel better in the second tri and cook again. DH gets home too late to cook dinner for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101128 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 17:24:57 +0000 getjazzy 2101128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH often cooked for him and LO and I ate whatever I could manage from their meal.. but most often I just had toast. It was a rough time because I couldn't help DH cook, feed LO or clean up. Everything grossed me out! Hope it passes quickly for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101122 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 17:17:04 +0000 charlotte 2101122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have done so much takeout lately! :bummed: my husband has been grilling for himself + LO when I just want to eat my cereal... I can sometimes handle roasting some chicken and veggies as long as I hold my breath when it comes out. Sorry I am not much help - I am interested to see some suggestions too!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101119 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 17:12:43 +0000 Anagram 2101119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made quick meals every night--tonight is rotisserie chicken and steamed vegetables. Tomorrow will be spaghetti. Honestly I usually end up eating cereal--I can't stand most foods right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101118 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 17:12:16 +0000 sorrycharlie 2101118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did a lot of Annie's. And DH had to fend for himself a lot!! Haha I'm sorry you feel awful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nausea-friendly-family-dinners#post-2101116 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 17:10:26 +0000 hilsy85 2101116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any ideas for family dinners I can cook that won't make me feel sick? I am currently holding my nose while sauteeing onion and garlic. I would love to just do Annie's mac n cheese for LO every night, but that still leaves DH, plus LO might turn into a pasta noodle... </p>
