MEAL PLAN WITH RECIPE LINKS – 08/10 – 08/16/24

free weekly meal plan

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 – 08/10/24
    • We will be eating out today, so no meal to share for tonight!
  • Sunday – 08/11/24
    • Tonight we will be having some brats on the grill with marinated grilled chicken. As a side, I will be making a Caprese Salad.
  • Tuesday – 08/13/24
    • Every Tuesday, we do some type of Mexican theme meal. Tonight we are going to do a Southwest Skillet!
  • Wednesday – 08/14/24
    • 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 – 08/15/24
    • Thursday we usually do some type of soup and grilled cheese, or breakfast for dinner. Tonight we will be having Sausage & Cheese Crescent Roll Breakfast Casserole.
  • Friday – 08/16/24
    • 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, I’ll be making Cheesy Instant Pot Rice and Vegetables.
