Meal planning and prepping tips
If you're new here...
Every week, I share a free meal plan for you to use the following week. You'll have seven main dish recipes, and of course dessert!
Typically the weekly meal plans are named by number of the week and date. For example, if the plan is for the first week of January, I'll name it Weekly Meal Plan 1 - Jan 3-9. Next year the plans will be updated for the corresponding dates and tasty new recipes!
Don't forget - if you have a busy day and plan on eating out, just drop a day off the menu. Adjust the meal plan to fit YOUR busy life!
Here are some shortcuts and tips for this week's menu!
- Leftovers of the lasagna soup freeze great!
- For the Nicoise Salad boil the potatoes and green beans on Sunday and refrigerate. They will be nice & cold on Monday night for dinner!
- Teriyaki Chicken makes a great sandwich for lunch - you may consider doubling that recipe!
- Goulash is always super yummy and another meal that even tastes better the next day!
- Cupcakes freeze great! Just freeze individually overnight, then wrap well to freeze for up to three months.

That was the latest feedback from a reader for this Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Bowl! It's excellent!

If you aren't a fan of shrimp, then substitute with rotisserie chicken or leftover teriyaki chicken. What a fabulous meal!

My Grandma used to make Homemade American Goulash for us all the time. It's easy, delicious, and a great way to stretch a buck.
Serve with steamed brussels sprouts or steamed green beans.
Leftovers last 3-4 four days, AND this dish freezes great!
Saturday - Honey Sriracha Chicken
Slow Cooker Honey Sriracha Chicken - you'll love this sweet, spicy dish. Serve with steamed or roasted broccoli.
