Just in case this is helpful to others...
I find it hard to remember all the things I.could cook when it comes time to actually having to make something! I use PINTEREST to help me do some basic meal planning. I have two 'pin boards'that i use - one for general recipes that I see online that I like, and one for weekly meal planning. I pin recipes as I find them online onto my http://pinterest.com/gokkusagi/noshknack board. This gives me a pool of healthy recipes to choose from, when I'm not feeling so inspired. Then, I do my weekly plan, trying to find four- five recipes that will get me through the week, creating leftovers or ingredients that can be re purposes into other dishes. If I want to use a recipe from a cookbook I already have, I'll google it. 99% of the time, someone else has already posted it. If not, I'll just post a pretty picture with a book and page reminder. So my http://pinterest.com/gokkusagi/eat-me/ becomes my go to meal plan. I've not quite gotten back to it since the holidays, but maybe having a list like that would help compile recipes that he could try, and that are healthy.
I like the fact that they are online, because then I've got all my recipes in one spot. If I need an ingredient, I can double check and make sure I've got everything I need. Hope that helps!
