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 – 07/22/23
    • Tonight will we will be cooking on the grill. I will be making boneless grilled chicken thighs brushed with barbeque sauce and some brats in the air fryer. To go along with the chicken, I will be making Hellmann’s Classic Macaroni Salad.
  • Sunday – 07/23/23
  • Monday – 07/24/23
    • Tonight we will be having a simple Cobb Salad. I will be grilling up some chicken breast and serving with Romaine lettuce, bacon, avocado and diced hard-boiled eggs.
  • Tuesday – 07/25/23
    • Every Tuesday, we do some type of Mexican theme meal. Tonight we are going to do Taco Tuesday! I don’t have a recipe the share for the tacos, but I can tell you how I serve them. For the meat, I cook up some ground turkey and season it with seasoned salt and chili powder. Then I serve with hard taco shells, soft taco shells, shredded cheddar, avocados, sour cream, and taco sauce.
  • Wednesday – 07/26/23
    • 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 – 07/27/23
    • We try to keep things really simple on Thursdays because this is the night that I go grocery shopping! Tonight we will be doing Instant Pot Hamburger Soup.
  • Friday – 07/28/23
    • Tonight we will be doing Rib Eye steak for dinner. I just marinate the steak with some McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning, oil, and wine vinegar. Then throw it on the grill, or broil it to your desired doneness. As a side dish, I will be making Cheesy Instant Pot Rice and Vegetables.
