I'm making a list of meals we eat, either often or new recipes that went over well. I want a list to refer to when I'm in a rut, and can't think of anything! A few ideas I have are:
Tacos, pizza, burritos, breakfast for dinner, chili, and I'm blanking out on the rest!
What meals are in your usual rotation?
