Allll the time. Its something I want to get better at. Using the same recipes is just easy and cost effective in terms of meal planning. Each week we normally have taco Tuesday (change the kind), grilled steak/chicken, a ground beef recipe (made chili tonight), and a pasta dish.

Constantly. My husband does a low carb diet, so pretty much every day our meal consists of a lean protein, a salad and another vegetable. We eat a chicken breast/caesar salad/broccoli combo probably three times a week, salmon once, and taco salad twice.

Around every two weeks. I try not to serve the same side dish with the same main course. Also I switch up the seasoning so even if we have chicken every week it tastes different.

We were getting stuck in a rut of repeat meals, then there was a Living Social deal for eMeals (and no, I don't work for them or anything). They send you a weekly menu with the recipes and shopping list, you just shop and cook! It has been AWESOME! Haven't repeated a single meal yet, and we go out to eat wayyyy less often! I highly recommend it! (Our deal was $29 for a year of meals, the regular price is like $58 or something, which I would probably pay)

We have staples that we eat a lot but since DH travels during the week, we can space them out.
