Life’s easier when dinner is already decided. This week’s meal plan keeps it simple, comforting, and delicious. I swear by meal planning, and it might become your secret weapon too.
What’s On The Menu?
If choosing dinner feels like the hardest part of the day, this plan fixes it. A week of cozy, low effort meals that make weeknights run smoother. Here’s what you’re cooking.
Stanley Tucci pasta casserole is everything you want in a casserole. TikTok is going crazy over the crispy bacon, tender peas, and the creamy, cheesy sauce that holds everything together!
Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder is creamy, cheesy and so easy to make! It has just enough of a kick to it and the flavor is incredible. This will be one of the best chowders that you will eat!
Salmon so good, it will have everyone falling in love! Marry Me Salmon is soft and flaky, smothered in an buttery, creamy sun-dried tomato sauce. Trust me, it’s one of the best dishes you’ll ever make!
This free weekly menu sets you up for a smoother start to the week. You’ll get five dinners that serve four to six people, plus a free shopping list. With fresh ideas and easy recipes, having a weekly menu plan quickly becomes a lifesaver.
Why Meal Planning Works
Less Last-Minute Scrambling: No more 5 p.m. panic, just a calm, confident “I’ve got this.”
Fewer Decisions: Take the guesswork out of dinnertime and save your mental energy for everything else.
Smarter Shopping: You’ll buy what you actually need and waste less food (and money).
Healthier Choices: Planning ahead makes it easier to work in balanced, nutritious meals.
My weekly menu plans always include a printable shopping list that’s measured out and ready to go. It makes things so easy and saves real time on busy weeks. This will help weeknights feel way more manageable every time to go to cook dinner.
I only meal plan Monday-Friday because we sometimes have something going on over the weekend. If you do have leftovers, make sure to store them properly in an airtight container in your fridge.
