MEAL PLAN WITH RECIPE LINKS – 02/25 – 03/03/23
You can hear the audio version of this meal plan on my podcast at Lola’s Frugal Life Podcast, on Apple Podcast, and on many other platforms!
Welcome to my weekly meal plan! Each week I like to share the meal plan that I will be using for my family for the upcoming week. I do this because I think that having a meal plan is really important for many reasons. Some of those reasons include saving money, wasting less food, and having less stress when it comes time to figure out “what’s for dinner?”! I try to stick with a meal plan that is simple to make things a little easier during our busy weeks. I hope this can help you with some ideas of what you might want to make this week.
- Saturday – 02/25/23
- Tonight we will be having a Juicy Roasted Chicken! We will be serving with Creamy Spinach and Mushroom Tortellini with Carmelized Onions.
- Sunday – 02/26/23
- Tonight we will be having Easy American Goulash. This is a great simple meal to make.
- Monday – 02/27/23
- Tonight we will be having hamburgers for dinner. I make these every other week. This is one of those that I don’t have a real recipe to share with you. I just make them very simply by making patties with ground beef. Sometimes I’ll throw a little bit of McCormick hamburger seasoning on them. I will also be making a can of pork and beans, and Oven Fresh Seasoned Potato Wedges.
- Tuesday – 02/28/23
- Tonight is Chipotle night. This is one of the meals we rotate for our Mexican theme Tuesday night meals. We make homemade Chipotle-style bowls. Everyone makes their own how they like it! I take some chicken breast and slice it up into bite-size pieces. Then I toss it with a little olive oil, seasoned salt, and chili powder. I then broil the chicken for about 15 – 20 minutes to get it a little crispy. I serve the chicken with brown rice, shredded cheddar, black beans, salsa, avocado, sour cream, etc. To make it really quick, I use instant brown rice that I cook in the microwave while the chicken is cooking. Just put out whatever you might like to add to your bowl. It’s such a quick easy meal!
- Wednesday – 03/01/23
- We usually rotate some type of seafood on Wednesdays. Tonight we will be having Creamy Tuscan Salmon Shrimp Pasta!
- Thursday – 03/02/23
- Today I will be making Crockpot Chili. Fortunately, I have saved some frozen leftovers from the last time I made it! I will be serving it with some Italian bread don’t the side.
- Friday – 03/03/23
- Tonight we will be making Bow Ties with Sausage, Tomatoes and Cream. I don’t usually make sides with this, it’s enough as a meal all on its own. But, you could definitely serve it with a salad.
