MEAL PLAN WITH RECIPE LINKS – 06/24 – 06/30/23

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 – 06/24/23
  • Tonight we will be having French Dip Sandwiches. I don’t have a link for this recipe. However, all you have to do is put all of the following ingredients into your crockpot and cook on low all day: 3 pounds chuck roast, 1 envelope of onion soup mix, 1 packet au jus gravy mix, and 1 14-ounce can of beef broth. When it’s done, serve with some rolls and Swiss or provolone cheese! Classic Macaroni Salad.

• Sunday – 06/25/23
  • Tonight we will be having Chicken Francese with some linguini and frozen vegetables.

• Monday – 06/26/23
  • Hot dogs are on the menu tonight! We do this once a month. I also make some Home Fried Potatoes in the air fryer. I just chop up some potatoes, onion, and green peppers. Then toss them in a bowl with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper and throw them in the air fryer on 360 for about 20 – 30 minutes. Some potatoes seem to cook quicker and some are longer, so I just check them along the way and see how much more time they need. You can also roast them in the oven if you don’t have an air fryer. We use the potatoes to make Italian Hot Dogs. I am also serving this with some canned chili.

• Tuesday – 06/27/23
  • Every Tuesday, we do some type of Mexican theme meal. Tonight we are going to do a Southwest Skillet!

• Wednesday – 06/28/23
  • Wednesday is seafood night most weeks. This week we are having Easy Shrimp Scampi. When the shrimp is done, I serve it with some cooked spaghetti to make a nice shrimp pasta meal.

• Thursday – 06/29/23
  • Thursday we usually do some type of soup and grilled cheese, or breakfast for dinner. Tonight we will be having some Sausage Tortellini Soup!

• Friday – 06/30/23
  • Tonight we will have some chicken breast on the grill. I slice the chicken thin, and marinade with olive oil, white wine vinegar, and McCormick Montreal Chicken seasoning. As a side, I will be making Baked Feta Pasta.
