Does anyone have any good healthy recipes for a family?

I live in a family of 5. 3 teens, 2 adults. We can be picky. But... Because there is 5 of us it is hard to find stuff everyone likes. 2 of the teens do not like cheese by the way. But because we are so picky we have either pasta or chicken every night! I do not mind pasta or chicken but we are tired of the same things! Please give me new recipes! THANKSDoes anyone have any good healthy recipes for a family?

The problem is this pickiness, not the recipes.


Try ground turkey instead %26amp; treat it like hamburger.


Use rice or potato instead of pasta sometimes.


Canned tuna is a good change of pace, in casseroles or salad.


Experiment with different vegetables for colour %26amp; flavour.
Try some grilled steak fajitas
