The weekly meal plan is back with an easy way for you to plan meals and create a simple grocery list all right here in this post! Check out this week’s meal plan below!
Notes from this week’s meal plan:
Power greens and potato breakfast casserole
- Costco sells a large bag of power greens (a mix of baby spinach, baby red and green chards, and baby kale), which I use for this recipe. You can use any mixture of greens you would like.
- The bake time depends on how thick your casserole is. So, the smaller your skillet, the thicker the casserole and the longer the bake time. I used a 6″ skillet in this recipe. You could use a square baking dish or a casserole dish.
- Browning the butter is an important step because it adds a touch of extra flavor.
- You can use frozen hash browns in place of fresh potato if that’s what you have on hand, shredded a potato is not always fun or quick.
- If you choose to use fresh potato, use it quickly, otherwise the potatoes will oxidize and turn brownish, but they will still taste good!
- If you want to be extra fancy, use Cotija cheese in place of Parmesan (or in addition to)
5 ingredient baked chicken parmesan pasta
- This recipe is made all in one dish – easier clean up!
- You can use ziti or penne pasta for this (for best results)
Whole wheat banana bread and/or muffins
- In place of whole wheat flour, you can use 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour.
- To make this recipe gluten free, use 1 1/4 cups brown rice flour, 1/3 cup tapioca starch, 1/4 cup potato starch.
- As an option, you could add 3/4 cup toffee chips
- You can use this recipe for hot or iced coffee
- To make this cinnamon coffee recipe, you’re basically making a creamer to add as much or little to your coffee.
- This recipe will make enough for two coffees, depending on how much creamer you like in your coffee.
- When you add the ingredients to hot coffee, they melt, but if you’re making this into an iced coffee, you need to make it into a coffee creamer and then pour it over coffee, so that the brown sugar melts.
- This recipe is from the Skinnytaste One and Done cookbook and it’s so good!
- You’ll be surprised at how low in calories this recipe is! You can also serve it as an appetizer, for smaller portions and lower calorie count.
Cheddar bacon ranch pinwheel wraps
- This recipe is a great party appetizer, but it also make a delicious lunch!
- The most time consuming part is making bacon, which you can do ahead of time for a super simple meal!
