You’d have to specify what foods you won’t eat, for anyone to be able to give you a recipe that you might want to try

Since you are a "picky eater" and we don’t know what you would "PICK", it’s not worthwhile to type a bunch of recipes for you.
Go to Recipes.com and type in a food you like, and they will give you various ways to prepare it.
We don’t have a crystal ball, but they have a section here that have mind readers available. You might take your question to "mythology and folklore", I think that’s where the psychics hang out.

Yesterday I made some spaghetti and it was really good. Just boil some noodles (string noodles) and then add prego sauce (add very little, it tastes the best with very very little). Then sprinkle basil over it. Then make some toast, yes toast. Just toast one piece and then split it in half and then eat. It was really good and simple.

Hi there……
You might want to update this and give us two lists:
One of things that you absolutely HATE
One of things that you like or really like…..that way, we can give you better choices in your menu dilemma…..

Get a slow cooker.
Endless possiblities.
Tough cuts come out tender. Just remember to tenderize them. I always forget that part.

Chicken! It can be cooked just about anyway you want and it isn’t that hard either…
My favorite is with honey/basil chicken
Just coat a frying pan with some olive oil and marinate some boneless sjkinless chicken breasts in a mixture of soy sacue, honey, mustard and basil…more or less of each depending on your tatses. Then sautee it on medium heat until it’s hot and isn’t pink in the middle anymore.
Another thing I do alot is marinate my chicken in things like salad dressing, BBQsauce, or I just go through the spice cabinet and use things that i think smell good…but it’s all essentially cooked the same way and is realtivly healthy.
Also, quesidillas are pretty easy…just take atortilla and spinkle w/ cheese and whatever meet you want(I like chicken lol…I season it w/ taco seasoning) and microwave it for a minute or so until til cheese is melted..and you can add whatever vegetables or other additives you like
Oh and rice is easy to make to…just read the pakage
IDK what else… Good Luck

Well I’d have to know what kinds of foods you don’t like to be specific, but some soups are really easy to make and can be adjusted according to your preference. Also it lasts for a while, and is easy to heat up, along with some bread for a small meal.
Eggs are a good source of nutrients as long as you don’t overdo it, and they are easily boiled or fried.
Make sure you’re getting lots of fruits and vegetables. If you don’t like the vegetables raw you can steam them, and then all you need is some salt and pepper.

My partner likes it when I make him cherry glazed chicken breasts, smashed potatoes and a veggie.
Cherry glazed chicken breasts:
1 can cherry pie filling
4-6 boneless chicken breasts
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Place the chicken breasts in a glass baking pan that has been sprayed with a non-stick cooking spray like Pam. Spoon just enough of the cherry pie filling over the chicken to cover lightly. Place pan into oven and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes spreading more of the pie filling over the chicken every 15 minutes.
This is very easy and you get a nice moist chicken breast. This also works for Cornish game hens.
