    Roasted salmon and Brussels sprouts. I have this dinner 2-3x/week since it's quick and easy and I can put it in the oven while I shower after the gym.

    Ribeye with a dry rub of salt+pepper+garlic, sea scallops, seared in a steal pan with butter. Served with assorted steamed veg.

    Well, maybe not my 'goto', but when I want something I know I like and don't want to spend a lot of time cooking, this is where I end up.

    My wife and I like quite a bit of variety, particularly where dinner is concerned as our breakfasts and lunch tend to be more mundane. Between the two of us, we have probably around 100 recipes saved on Pinterest.

    I grill burgers probably once per week or so...it's super easy and quick and we just have a salad to go with...so I guess that would be our least fussy "go to" on a week night.

    Egg, turkey bacon, and cheese on an english muffin. It's easy, filling, and fits well into my calorie goals.

    Chicken piccata with roasted veg and whatever random starch I have on hand.

    I guess my "go to" is baked chicken breast with baked potatoes and a veg (usually green beans)

    Boring but easy and pretty good. And filling.

    I like a lot of variety in my meals though. I'm always looking for more ideas and recipes.

    I really like it when my boyfriend grills. He's been practicing his bbq skills lol.

    Sounds good but probably not very budget friendly lol

    Might depend on your location. The scallops are kinda pricey but I buy everything in single portions from the butcher. Half pound of ribeye runs 4-5 bucks, the same for about 3 sea scallops. So all said and done it clocks in at about $10. So not really cheap, but also not terrible. Without the scallops it's pretty budget friendly IMO because beef is filling and high in calories. The veggies are cheap, frozen steamers are roughly ~$1.25 per pound.

    I've noticed through conversations online that food prices vary drastically depending on area.
