MEAL PLAN WITH RECIPE LINKS – 07/27 – 08/02/24

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 – 07/27/24
  • Tonight we will be having some brats on the grill with marinated grilled chicken. As a side, I will be making Tomato Mozzarella Pasta Salad.
• Sunday – 07/28/24
  • Today I will be making Creamy Herbed Pork Chops. This is one of my favorite ways to make pork chops. Honestly, I have never made the “creamy part” of the recipe. I am sure it is good! But, I just love the pork chops seasoned with the Montreal Steak seasoning and browned in the butter. It comes out so good. I use bone-in pork chops. For side dishes, we will have Classic Macaroni Salad and some frozen vegetables.

• Monday – 07/29/24
  • 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 – 07/30/24
  • Tonight is our Mexican theme meal night! We will be having Homemade Nachos with Ground Beef.

• Wednesday – 07/31/24
  • 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 Easy Fried Rice.

• Thursday – 08/01/24
  • Tonight I will be making a really easy crockpot meal! We will be having Slow Cooker Chicken Stroganoff. I will also make some white rice to go on the side.
• Friday – 08/02/24
  • No meal to share tonight, we will be ordering in to celebrate an anniversary!
