I can and do eat cheese. I just am tired of having it be a major part of everything I eat.

Tonight I made some angel hair pasta, which was delicious. Cheese was involved of course!

I've had this problem too, I'd second the asian food reccomendation

Jambalaya, curry, and soup & stews all come to mind also

Oh I don't know how I forgot jambalaya! Great ideas

We have made so much soup lol. Hoping to make gumbo soon just don't have enough ingredients. Might make jambalaya instead since we have most of those those ingredients.

Does jambalaya usually take thyme? I don't remember adding it before but it's been in a number of recipes

I've never included it, but I've usually also made it from a box. Gumbo I made from scratch with a friend at one point, and I did make jambalaya from scratch once, but I don't think I remember it turning out super well

From what I can see looking around online it seems to be a common inclusion, and Cajun cooking is generally heavily spiced, so I'd give it a shot 🤷‍♂️
