Weekly Meal Plan – 135

Each week, we share a FREE meal plan to help you figure out what’s for dinner! These family meal plans are thoughtfully crafted to give you options for a main dish, and two side dishes for each week day with a special emphasis on meals both kids and adults will enjoy.

Family Meal Plan

MONDAY

• Main Dish: – One Pan Tuscan Pork Chops – This recipe seems like something you would get at a restaurant, but only takes 20 minutes to make! Be prepared to be impressed with yourself when you make this easy dinner! {Pin it here}.
• Side Dish:
  • Pesto Roasted Vegetables – These are fast and oh, so delicious.
  • Pasta- We like angel hair or penne pasta. You can also add a little cheater alfredo sauce to it if you want!

TUESDAY

• Main Dish: Salsa Chicken– This is a kid-favorite in our house, and amazingly easy to make! Just dump and bake! I like to serve it “bowl” style, where you start with rice and beans, add he chicken on top then top with all the toppings your heart desires!
• Side Dish:
  • Black beans – You can make black beans from scratch in the crock pot, or I share my secrets for how to making canned black beans taste so good here!
  • Mexican Rice – Tastes just like your fav Mexican restaurant!
  • Toppings– Sour cream, guacamole, corn salsa, shredded lettuce , pico de gallo, crushed tortilla chips

WEDNESDAY

• Main Dish: Creamy Tomato Basil Soup–  This is my #1 soup recipe on my website, and it is AMAZING! It almost seems like cheating because this recipe is so easy, and so good!
• Side Dish:
  • Garlic Cheese bread– Perfect for dipping, gives a grilled cheese vibe, but faster to make for a crowd!
  • Salad with Creamy Italian dressing– A side salad is perfect for keeping the meal light, although this dressing is so good it might keep you coming back for more!

THURSDAY

• Main Dish: Big Mac Skillet  – Comfort food without the guilt! This dish gives you all the flavor of a Big Mac, but made in a skillet at home in minutes. You can eat it as a salad (like me!) or on a bun (like my kids) so it is customizable for each person.
  • Sides:
    • Baked Potato Wedges– Get the flavor of french fries in these oven baked potatoes!

FRIDAY

• Main Dish: Roast Beef Sliders– Quick. Easy. Perfect for some Friday fun! These little sandwiches pack in the flavor and can easily scale for a crowd.
  • Side:
    • Chips
    • Veggies and Ranch dip- Your choice of carrots, celery, peppers, broccoli, etc. Serve with my homemade ranch for a REAL TREAT!!
• Dessert – Fudge Brownies– These are LITERALLY the BEST brownies I have ever had!! If you are a chocolate lover, you MUST make these soon!

APPETIZER

• Buffalo Ranch Chicken Pinwheels– These are absolutely perfect for a day of watching football. Tender chicken, tangy buffalo sauce, , all in a easy, finger food format. I think you will love these!
