Meal Plan – Week 232

*If you make a recipe this week and love it, please consider leaving a rating and comment on the recipe post. It helps to support my blog and makes my day!*

Monday

• Main Dish: Ginger Sesame Ground Chicken Stir Fry – Top 3 things I love about this – easy, kid-friendly and one pan. One pan meals are my favorite!
• Side Dish:
  • Asian Cucumber Salad — This can be prepared in advance which makes for an even faster side dish the night of dinner.
  • Sriracha Slaw — This cabbage has a little kick if you are into that!
  • Steamed Rice — White or brown rice would be great to soak up the stir fry sauce. Quinoa would also work.

Tuesday

• Main Dish: Garlic Butter Meatballs — These ground turkey meatballs are so delicious! No one will believe these only took you 10 minutes because they’re so full of flavor.
• Side Dish:
  • Lemon Rice — This rice goes perfectly with the meatballs.
  • Brown Butter Broccoli — My family thinks these are the best way to eat broccoli.
  • Noodles or zoodles! — If you really want your noodles to be coated with the garlic sauce, I recommend doubling the sauce when making this.

Wednesday

• Main Dish: Shake n Bake Pork Chops — This is a meal that adults and kids rave about.
• Side Dish:
  • Baked Beans and Ground Beef — This is incredibly simple, but hearty and perfect as a side dish.
  • Instant Pot Corn on the Cob — The garlic butter that absorbs into the corn is the secret that will turn this into a family favorite. Try my crock pot version for a different way to make it!

Thursday

• Main Dish: Crock Pot Pork Carnitas — Today’s recipe is the start of the next TWO days. Let’s do make-your-own-bowls tonight.
• Side Dish:
  • Cilantro Lime Rice —Someone who has worked at Chipotle said this rice tastes just like the original recipe 🤯
  • Black Beans —Keep it simple and spice up some canned beans!
  • Tortillas or taco shells
  • Toppings:
    • Shredded lettuce
    • Corn Salsa
    • Pico de Gallo
    • Sour Cream
    • Guacamole
    • Shredded cheese

Friday

• Main dish: Carnitas Street Tacos — With leftovers from yesterday, tonight’s dinner will be crazy easy!
• Side Dish:
  • Street Corn Casserole — quick, easy and one of my most popular recipes.
  • Mexican Roasted Vegetables — These only take a few minutes to prepare and roast.
• Dessert — Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies —It took me a while to really perfect this cookie, and it was more than worth it!

Appetizer

• Garlic Chicken Bites — These are perfect for a heavier, bitesized appetizer. Try them with my homemade ranch.
