I eat the same food every week! (and like it)

So do you remove the skin of the potatoes first, then boil and then place in your waffle iron? Thanks

Can someone tell me what hot dog salad is?

I cut up 4 chicken hot dogs, 4 wedges of laughing cow cheese, and put it over an entire bag of lettuce/greens with jalapenos, reduced sugar ketchup and hot sauce.

That sounds amazing!

Skinned red potatoes.
Skin, cut into chunks, boil for 16 mins, drain off the water, quick mash. When I say quick mash, I go around the bowl 4 times with my masher just to get the boiled chunks together, not looking for "mashed potatoes" constancy.

Then I squish it down into a tupperwear container. I put mine into the fridge at least overnight, but that is probably not needed. But it makes loading them into the iron easy in one big chunk.

36 oz (2.3 pounds) of unskinned reds will give you 2, 14 oz portions once skinned. 14 oz portion is what I have per meal and it works to 291 calories on the reds that I buy. I take that 14 oz portion and make 2 waffles out of it.

I make a 2 day batch at once just to save time cooking. I weigh it and portion it out into tupperware. Takes me just over an hour from start to done with cleanup to do 2 days of meals.

I'm the same way, and it's really the only thing that's ever worked for me. I meal prep on Sunday for the entire week, and it's the same thing every week -- breakfast sandwich for breakfast; sweet potatoes/brown rice, broccoli, and seasoned chicken breast for lunch. Dinner varies. I find myself actually looking forward to specific foods the next day as opposed to not having any clue what I'm going to eat and EVERYTHING sounding good.

Creature of habit over here as well. I have eaten the same breakfast (oats/protein powder/berries/yogurt/flax) for several years. Lunch I always have a tortilla with avocado and some sort of Lean Cusine meal so that can vary. Snacks are pretty much homemade protien balls, fruit, cereal, and quest bars. Dinner is always a huge plate of veggies with some sort of protein (chicken, turkey, fish, etch.) avocado with toast. I pretty much keep my meals the same during the week, weekends when we go out I tend to eat more of a variety of foods. My husband doesn't understand how I don't get sick of eating the same things, but it works for me!
