Yeah, I've had a question...
At our house, we mostly eat pasta, mashed potatoes, rice and chicken for dinner, with the occasional specialty, while always eating the near-same sandwhiches for lunch, and it's getting pretty dull after awhile. Only our breakfast has variety.
So yeah, what do you eat for lunch and dinner? I need some ideas, I'm getting tired of chicken...

Bleh, I'm not huge on PB&J, but cheese and beans on toast is an idea. Problem is, that isn't really dinner by my mom's standards, or mine for a matter of fact, but I'll keep it in mind.

Well, for my lunch, I usually eat only peanut butter and jelly. I also, sometimes, have a turkey, bologna, or ham sandwich. My lunch doesn't have that big of a range of foods.

Ingredients for salmon
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 6-ounce salmon fillets
4 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Heavy-duty aluminum foil
Ingredients for cilantro sauce
1 tablespoon butter
1 leek, white part only, finely chopped and thoroughly washed
1 shallot, minced
1 jalapeno chili, seeds and membranes removed, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1-1/2 cups chicken stock
2 cups lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves (stems removed before measuring)
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons sour cream
SALMON
1. Cut two 12-inch pieces of aluminum foil.
2. Grease the shiny side of the foil with the oil. Place 2 fillets side by side on each square and fold up the outer edges.
3. Pour 1 tablespoon lime juice over each fillet. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Fold and pinch the aluminum foil extra tightly to create a watertight seal around each pair of fillets.
5. Place foil packets on the top rack of the dishwasher. Run dishwasher for the entire wash and dry cycle. (To heighten the theatrics, ask your guests to crowd around the dishwasher when you put the salmon in.)
6. When cycle is complete, take out salmon (in front of your disbelieving guests), discard foil, place one fillet on each plate, and spoon a generous serving of cilantro sauce over top.
CILANTRO SAUCE
1. Melt the butter over medium heat in a saute pan.
2. Add the leek, shallot, jalapeno, and garlic and saute for about 5 minutes, or until the onions are translucent but not brown.
3. Reduce heat to medium and add the stock. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes. (Adjust heat as required to simmer.) The liquid should reduce by half.
4. Remove from heat and let cool.
5. Transfer to a blender or food processor and add the cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Puree until smooth.
6. Add the sour cream and "pulse" until mixed. Set aside.
Le Secret: Make sure the packet is airtight by pressing down on it gently with your hand. If air escapes easily, repackage.
Adventure club: Poach the salmon with yesterday's dishes and lemon-scented dishwasher detergent (I do it this way all the time).
Garnish: Cilantro sprigs.
Suggested Accompaniment: Yellow string beans, steamed and glazed with lemon juice and butter.
Alternatives:
i) Sour cream may be replaced with yogurt.
ii) Chicken broth may be replaced with vegetable broth (for fish-eating vegetarians).

For lunch make your sandwhich on a bagel. And put cream cheese, some sort of lunch meat, and swiss cheese on it. It's simple, and it tastes great.
For dinner, cook in a crock pot slices of beef in soy sauce, terriyaki sauce, and worstersoyer (yeah, bad spelling) sauce. You need about 1/3 cup of each. I think it takes about 3- 6 hours to cook. But, you don't have to watch it at all. When it's done, you can eat it just as it is or eat it over rice.

Have you tried tuna salad?
And there's club sandwiches. I think that means you put turkey, beef, and chicken all on one sandwich.
