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 that this can help you with some ideas of what you might want to make this week.

  • Saturday -09/03/22
    • 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 a side dish, we will be having Creamy Spinach and Mushroom Tortellini.
  • Monday – 09/05/22
    • 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 Oven Fresh Seasoned Potato Wedges.
  • Tuesday – 09/06/22
    • Every Tuesday, we do some type of Mexican theme. For tonight, I will be making Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas. I serve this up with some flour tortillas and sour cream. This is a recipe I like making because it comes together so quickly.
  • Wednesday – 09/07/22
    • Wednesdays are usually seafood nights. Tonight we will be having fried flounder. I don’t have a recipe for the flounder. To make it, I just dip the flounder in egg and breadcrumbs and then fry them up. For side dishes, we will be having Spinach with Garbanzo Beans and Cauliflower au Gratin.
  • Thursday – 09/08/22
    • Thursday we usually do some type of soup and grilled cheese, or breakfast for dinner. Tonight we will be having Hashbrown Casserole.
