Don't know what to cook?

In a food rut? Don't know what to cook. 
I feel like this all the time!
Well Jerry and I were in cabo the past five days and today is my first day home and getting things back in order. We had ballet and other fun stuff so getting to the store isn't going to happen until later. 
And this is what my frige looks like
EMPTY!
So I'm making the most of what I have. Momma always taught me, pull something together with what you've got. And you know what...sometimes our fav meals have been discovered from these times! My caprese pasta salad (Jerry's absolute fav) came from one of these nights!
So here is my make something from nothing recipe for today. 
I pulled the last three chicken breasts out of my freezer. Seasoned with olive oil, little lemon juice, salt, red pepper, garlic powder, oregano and basil
Then one chicken was cooked through
Then added the only veggies I had
1 zucchini, 2 small squash and a couple of sweet pepper
Also the last if some cherry tomatoes

Through it all in the pot
Let it cook, smashed some of the tomatoes 
Then added quinoa penne pasta

Hopefully this gives you some inspiration to dig in your pantry and fridge and make something up using what you got!!! You might make up a new fav recipe!
