We’ve made it to week 78, which means these weekly meal plans are working! Thank you for letting me be part of your weekly routine. This plan includes simple dinners and a printable grocery list to help take one thing off your plate.
What’s for Dinner?
These are the kinds of dinners that everyone enjoys. Every recipe in this weekly meal plan is a full meal on its own, but you can always add a side or dessert if you like. Maybe some garlic brussels sprouts or 1-hour dinner rolls!
Monday: Marry Me Stuffed Shells
Tuesday: Mongolian Beef and Broccoli
Wednesday: Slow Cooker Chicken Fajita Soup
Thursday: No Peek Pork Chops and Rice
Saturday: Swedish Meatball Casserole

Weekly Menu
I put out a new weekly meal plan every week, and you can always swap meals around if needed. If you’d like to get them each week without having to look for them, my newsletter is the best way.
Everything you love about fajitas comes together in this hearty Slow Cooker Chicken Fajita Soup. Tender chicken surrounded by beans, corn, and spices simmers all day to perfection
No Peek Pork Chops and Rice is comfort food at its best! Creamy, savory rice and tender pork chops are baked together in the same pan with less than 10 minutes of prep.
Tender meatballs are layered over perfectly cooked pasta and baked in a rich, creamy gravy in this Swedish Meatball Casserole.

Why is Meal Planning Helpful?
If you haven’t tried planning your meals ahead of time, this is going to be a game-changer for you! Here’s why I swear by weekly meal plans:
Saves time: No more 5:00 panic. You already know what’s for dinner, what you need, and how long it’ll take.
Saves money: Shopping with a plan makes it easier to buy what you’ll actually use and stretch leftovers into another meal.
Less takeout: When dinner is planned and groceries are in the house, skipping the drive-thru gets a lot easier.

I made this as easy as possible by providing a FREE shopping list you can print to make shopping better and more economical.
Meal Planning with Leftovers
I only meal plan Monday-Friday because we sometimes have plans over the weekend or I have leftovers that we can have to finish off the week! If you do have leftovers, make sure to store them properly in an airtight container in your fridge.
