So bored of all food!

Anyone else feel this at times? I'm on maternity leave with a toddler and an incredibly clingy 11mo. She cries everytime I put her down, so breakfast and lunch are rushed and I barely have time to eat anything with two hands. Dinner is better as DH is home and is a good cook. I would like a 'set menu' of food, but I get bored of eating the same thing more than two days in a row. I'm also incredibly fussy - all the food ideas on here I seem to hate! I hate sandwiches, pulses and quite a lot of cold food that isn't bad for me (which is a weird realisation). How do people plan their breakfasts and lunches every day? The kids have porridge/fruit/cereal for breakfast, and 'picnic lunch which involves sandwiches, nuts, yoghurt, stuff like that. I don't like that stuff! I'm so bored of thinking about food, but I'm hungry all the time! Can anyone help me get out of this rut?

my friend gets those boxes delivered .she said she is cooking things she'd never have thought about otherwise
Or swap recipes/ideas with your friends ?

I often rotate our meals when I get tired of cooking.

Staples tend to be;

omelettes
fajitas
hotdogs
wraps with tempura chicken, mayo and lettuce
soups
