Vent - can't decide what to cook

Have you ever had a day where you have a meat - i.e. - chicken - and are out of half of the ingredients you would normally toss with it to make a meal and therefore are out of meal ideas?!?!? Well, welcome to my day if you have! I have some HUGE chicken breasts that we had thawed out thinking we would do something with them yesterday and then wound up going to my parents' house to eat dinner. Now I'm sitting here, trying to rub two brain cells together, to figure out what to do with them for dinner. We are out of potatoes, so my normal roasted chicken dishes are out as all call for potatoes. We had to toss the onion too...I had never seen an onion this far gone! (I'm allergic to onion so I don't eat it but I can use it in dishes as long as it remains large enough for me to pull it out so I don't actually get any.) I want to do something with chicken and pasta but I am out of pasta sauce (I make homemade and I just don't have the time to do it right) and I don't have all of the stuff necessary to make an alfredo sauce. We could do a stir fry but I'm just not in the mood for rice tonight. *sigh* I don't have the brain cells left today to try to figure this out. It would be so much easier if I could just wave a magic wand and just have dinner magically appear. That isn't happening so I sit here, having gone through every cookbook I own, ever cooking magazine I possess, and through all of my typical online sites to get some ideas. We don't even have any soups that I could use to make some sort of casserole out of. *growl* All because we decided to pull chicken out to defrost. *smirk* Oh well, that is my vent for the day. Now to decide what I'm going to feed myself for lunch!
