    Meal planning and prepping tips

    • Consider doubling the BBQ Pork Recipe - it freezes great and can be used for those days when you just don't feel like cooking. We're using it for tacos this week, but it also is great in a quesadilla, topping a salad or over rice.
    • Additionally the Baked Beans freeze great as well. Allow it to cool completely, seal well and freeze.
    • There's a ton of diced onions needed this week - dice them in advance to save time, storing them in a plastic container or ziplock bag - as long as they are used within three days, you're good!
    • Don't forget check your schedule and make this meal plan work for YOU!. If there's a day you'll be eating out, just cross those items off your grocery list!

    August 8

    BBQ pulled pork that has been shredded in white bowl.

    BBQ Pulled Pork

    Use this BBQ Pulled Pork Recipe to make sliders on Super Bowl Sunday or go carb free and just enjoy the bbq! This is GREAT! It's easy to make and completely delicious. Recipe includes both pressure cooker and slow cooker instructions.

    You're going to love how good it is and it's a meal the whole family will love. Save the leftovers, we're going to use them on Tuesday!

    Cornbread with honey being drizzled over the top and sides.
    A pat of butter and drizzle of honey and this is cornbread perfection!

    Skillet Cornbread

    Cornbread and goes so well with bbq pulled pork. If you're not into sliders, just bake some cornbread and make baked beans and you'll have quite the meal!

    Baked beans in a small crock.
    Slow Cooker Baked Beans

    Baked Beans

    Isn't this the perfect meal combination? YUM!!! I love baked beans.

    When I make this I'll usually double the recipe because it freezes GREAT! Sometimes I make it in the crockpot or stovetop, in the summer I make them on the grill.

    The perfect side dish!!!

    August 9

    A bowl of carrot soup with a spoon in it.

    Carrot Soup

    Luxuriously creamy and rich yet so good for you! This Carrot Soup Recipe is light and delicious!

    I accidentally ordered a HUGE bag of carrots last week! This was such a wonderful way to use them up. I hate seeing things going to waste.

    This no-knead parmesan quick bread would be delicious with the soup!

    August 10

    Tacos lined up and topping with all the fixings, there's a hand squeezing fresh lime over all the tacos.

    BBQ Pork Tacos

    Today is Taco Tuesday and you guessed it, we're using leftover BBQ pork to make some yummy tacos! Not in the mood for tacos? Use the leftovers to make quesadillas or nachos. Delicious!

    August 11

    This super delicious Cheeseburger Soup Recipe is a MUST MAKE! It's meaty and delicious and just as good as your favorite burger!

    August 12

    Tex Mex Chicken and Zucchini

    Skillet Chicken and Zucchini - Pure comfort food in a skillet that is simple and delicious! I'm a big fan of one pot meals!

    August 13

    A white bowl filled with pasta.

    Macaroni and Cheese

    Who can say who to great Mac n Cheese? I love how easy to make and you can always make it heartier with some leftover BBQ Pork.

    Homemade is the BEST!

    Roasted Broccoli

    Since everyone is getting a delicious rich meal, lighten it up with some roasted broccoli. One it roasts and caramelized it's so much better than steamed or raw!

    Bonus? Prep the broccoli the day before and you can just toss it on a pan in the oven on Friday!

    August 14

    Egg Roll in a bowl with chopsticks.
    This is a quick and easy meal!

    Egg Roll in a Bowl

    This "Egg Roll in a Bowl" is a quick and healthy dinner that's ready in about 20 minutes!

    It has all of your favorite flavors and comes together so easily (using a coleslaw mix!) it's amazing!

    If you want more to go along with the meal make some homemade potstickers. Perfect side with this meal!

    Dessert

    Banana Milkshake with drizzled chocolate, whipped cream and wafers, topped with a cherry.

    Banana Split Milkshake

    You'll be everyone's favorite when you serve up a Banana Split Milkshake on Friday night!

    How fun is this recipe? Top it with your favorites, like sliced strawberries, chunks of pineapple and hot fudge. Enjoy!

    Don't forget, before you go to the store, shop your pantry, refrigerator and freezer first. Cross-off items you already have on hand. Staying organized will save you time and money!
