Weekly Meal Plan – 163

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: – Feta Chicken Bake– This one dish meal kills it on a busy night. Packed with flavor, the delicious tomato feta topping bakes in the flavor as it cooks. Best part, with only one dish, you have very little clean up!
• Side Dish:
  • Garlic Smashed Potatoes– This easy rice is our go-to side… it tastes just like Chipotle!
  • Roasted Asparagus– This is simple, healthy, delicious and can bake right alongside the chicken in the oven.

TUESDAY

• Main Dish: Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas– This is the quickest and easiest way to make fajitas! It turns out so delicious I actually like to make extras and pile it on salad for lunch through the week.
• Side Dish:
  • Mexican Rice– These taste just like a Mexican restaurant!
  • Refried Beans- Quick and easy, plus you can freeze extras for an easy meal later.

WEDNESDAY

• Main Dish: Steak Fried Rice– This is always a favorite of pretty much anyone who tries it! This recipe is quick and easy, but soooooo good! As a bonus it is extra family friendly too.
• Side Dish:
  • Yum Yum Sauce– my kids have to have this sauce on the fried rice! It is not even optional to them!
  • Sriracha Slaw– For the grown ups this makes the best side/salad to add to the meal. It has so much flavor and is just so good (but does have a kick!)

THURSDAY

• Main Dish: Chicken Fajita Nachos – My kids all time favorite dinner! I make this super quick meal with the leftovers from the sheet pan fajitas, and although yes the kids are eating nachos, we sure do cram in a lot of extra veggies between those chips and the cheese!
• Sides:
  • Guacamole – This is a tableside version that is so delicious!
  • Corn Salsa– One of my absolute favorite toppings for nachos.

FRIDAY

• Main dish: French Onion Meatballs– These get RAVE reviews and are just the best dinner. With big beefy meatballs, sweet caramelized onions, and a rich cheesy topping, it is just had not to be totally wowed by the flavor in this recipe.
  • Side:
    • Side Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette– Take the extra 5 minutes to make the salad dressing. Trust me, it is so worth it!
    • Garlic Parmesan Broccoli– My kids favorite way to eat broccoli… and mine too!
• Dessert – Peanut Butter Swirl Bars–  This classic recipe has the coolest method to make bakery quality chocolate swirls in the bars, and it only takes a few ingredients to make from scratch.

APPETIZER

• Mexican Spinach Dip– This creamy dip has spinach mixed with all your favorite Mexican style flavors! Be warned, it is hard to stop eating!
