I have to eat a relatively bland diet (can't have spice or too rich a food) and so all I ever eat (to DH's dissatisfaction) is bland food! You can make it more interesting though by adding different tastes and textures without adding the spice...
What about making stuff like;
Lasange (without added herbs like oregano and garlic)
Chicken Snitzels (you could have plain ones or make hawain ones - tom paste, ham, pineapple and cheese)
Spag Bol (again, without the added herbs and onions)
Vegeterian Lasange
Shepard's Pie (again, leave out onion etc. Just add diff veggies for extra flavour)
You could make chicken burgers/sandwhiches - chicken breast and snitzels are good for this. Use things like spinach instead of lettuce... You could use turkish bread rolls instead of traditional rolls/bread
Bangers and Mash (but use different types of sauges and different kinds of mash. There are lamb sausages, chicken sausages etc. You could have sweet potato mash or carrot mash instead of traditional mash)
What about chicken Kiev. You can buy different kinds (they are a little expensive though). You can get broccli and cheese, spincach and cheese etc. You could try making them yourself.
You could make different sauces to go with your veggies if you do meat and 3 veg. Cheese sauce with chicken and fish dishes etc
What about baked fish and veggies?
Some of the stir fry sauces are relatively bland - we have the honey and terryaki one... just stir fry some meat and veggies and add the sauce.
Kebabs (called different things in different states. Basically meat and veg on skewers - can be BBQ'd)
Some side dishes you could have with different meats include scalloped potatoes, baked potatoes (which might be a nice meal on their own - cheese, ham, sour cream, coleslaw etc).
What about pasta dishes? You can add pretty much whatever you want to pasta. Or there are some good prepacked stuff in the shops - especially the "stir through" ones. Chargrilled Veggie one is a hit here.
HTH Tracey and that you can get back to your normal diet soon!
