    I LOVE flat iron steak. I'll cook it sous vide for about 8-10 hours at 125-130F to make it tender, then sear it quickly up to a medium-rare. I take a similar approach with other tough cuts like sirloin and London broil. I'll top them with salsa fresca, guacamole, or burgundy mushrooms.

    I'm in a rut on my veggies; I'm eating too many sweet potatoes and asparagus. I would appreciate the recipe for your Parmesan green beans. That sounds really good!

    Sam this is the recipe I use!

    Flat irons are my favorite too! We grill them most of them time but insight have to try out what you've been doing!

    Another great veggie idea is baked honeyed carrots!! They are delicious!

    Catfish and veggies
    Grilled chicken and random veggies
    Tacos
    Kielbasa, sauerkraut and potatoes (cooked in beer)
    Spaghetti and meatballs
    Italian sausage and veggies
    Pork loin and veggies
    Maybe some homemade pizza

    The fish was supposed to be tonight but we kinda piggied out on homemade pretzels and skipping dinner.

    Fresh veggies are broccoli, cauliflower (will roast it), yellow squash, green beans. There's extra potatoes and will probably mash some or make potato fries (ditto with some sweet potatoes).

    There's leftover cauliflower leek soup and chicken tortilla soup as well and some pork loin/baked potatoes/roasted Brussel sprouts but that will probably be lunch sometime.

    It's actually a VERY rare thing that I actually have dinner planned for a week!

    I find if I have it planned out for the week I have no excuse not to eat at home. Therefore less eating out!! Plus I love knowing what I'm eating for dinner day to day because it helps me know how many calories I have for breakfast and dinner!!

    Tonight: Apricot chicken, roasted brussels sprouts with bacon and pasta alfredo
    Tomorrow night: Kielbasa with peppers and onions and roasted carrots with dijon mustard & balsamic vinaigrette and leftover pasta alfredo (but not for me).
    Tuesday night: Mini meatloaves, cauliflower bake
    Wednesday night: Not sure yet, probably grilled tilapia, roasted broccoli slaw, and rice
    Thursday night: It's usually McDonald's Thursday at our house. I'll have to opt for a healthier option.
    Friday night: Pizza - zucchini, kalmata olives, roma tomatoes, spinach, and feta! Yum!

    Tonight I had turkey kielbasa and cabbage; tomorrow I'll have the same. Tuesday it's a quick fry-up of ground turkey and lots of veggies with homemade sauce; Wednesday will be the same. Thursday I'm doing grilled chicken, steamed broccoli, and quinoa; Friday will be... you guessed it... the same thing. I like to cook, but I'm a single parent who works two jobs -- I don't have time to make something new and exciting every night!

    I haven't planned the weekend yet. My kiddo will probably be with his dad, so it may be Subway for me all weekend (one footlong, two dinners, problem solved for six bucks). If I don't do that, I'll probably just have quick salads or frozen veggie burgers.

    I'm eating out for dinner Thursday and possibly Tuesday, otherwise, dinner for the week will be either the beef macaroni or the guisado verde I stuck in the freezer with some frozen veggies and fruit.

    Korean beef bowl: http://damndelicious.net/2013/07/07/korean-beef-bowl/

    Veggies: carrots with hummus or cauliflower cheese

    Plus, I made a batch of bacon baked beans earlier today so that will last a few nights.

    My diet hasn't been varying lately.
