MEAL PLAN WITH RECIPE LINKS – 10/01 – 10/07/22
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 – 10/01/22
- I get a break tonight because we are going to for my sister’s birthday. So, no meal to share for today!
- Sunday – 10/02/22
- Tonight I will be trying out a new recipe. We will be having Pesto-Chicken Penne Casserole. We will be having a bagged salad on the side.
- Monday – 10/03/22
- 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 some french fries in the oven.
- Tuesday – 10/04/22
- Every Tuesday, we do some type of Mexican theme meal. Tonight we are going to do Cheesy Chicken Nachos!
- Wednesday – 10/05/22
- We usually rotate some type of seafood on Wednesdays. Tonight we will be having Bacon Wrapped Barbeque Shrimp. I have mentioned previously that I do not actually wrap the shrimp when I make this recipe. Instead, I cut up the bacon into pieces and lay over the shrimp on the baking sheet. I will be serving this with Instant Pot Fried Rice.
- Thursday – 10/06/22
- Thursday we usually do some type of soup and grilled cheese, or breakfast for dinner. This is the night that I go food shopping, so I try to keep things simple. Tonight we will be having Easy Clam Chowder with some oyster crackers!
- Friday – 10/07/22
- Tonight we will be having Chicken Pot Pie Casserole. This will be a nice simple meal for a Friday night!
