Meal/ crock pot ideas when your DH is super picky!

I need some new meal ideas. We make the same 5 meals and we are getting bored. The only problem is that my DH doesn't like cheese, tomatoes, salad, or condiments. This really limits our meals options. Any ideas for meals other than stir fry, tacos, Shepard's pie, steak, or stews?

What about a whole roasted chicken (either done in the oven, or you can also cook a whole chicken in the crock pot). Then make microwaved baked or sweet potatoes, and roasted veggies.

Pork tenderloin is also an alternative to steak, and it cooks quickly (maybe 30 minutes in the oven) and can be marinated in different ways or you can use dry rubs.

Maybe soups and sandwiches -- make a big batch of soup and then have a sandwich with it.

I cook an eye round roast beef and put carrots, celery and potatoes in all in the crock pot. 1 can of beef stock and then garlic, onions and a bunch of herbs. It comes out delicious!!

Does he like sauerkraut? If so that with any pork is easy and good. We serve with petrified sometimes, potato not cheese. Or potato pancakes and Apple sauce.

Simple Lemon chicken breasts. You can bake or do in a skillet.

Would he eat shrimp scampi?

Italian sausage, I just parboil and then brown in a skillet.

Breaded chicken or pork chops. I do a homemade shake and bake that's delicious.
