Struggling to come up with dinner ideas to feed your family? These free weekly meal plans are here to take the stress away. Each printable menu comes with 5 main dishes, 2 or 3 side dishes, and a dessert.
In addition, I’m including a grocery list that includes every ingredient you’ll need. Menu planning just got a lot easier!
Weekly Menu Plan #37 includes Chocolate Chip Pancakes, Teriyaki Meatballs, Pesto Chicken, Taco Salad, and Salmon with Cream Sauce with Almond Joy Cheesecake for dessert.
WHY USE A WEEKLY MEAL PLAN?
- ELIMINATE INDECISION – I can’t tell you how much time I used to waste scouring through cookbooks trying to decide what to make for dinner, sometimes at the last minute. Having a menu plan already decided every week is such a time saver!
- SAVE TIME – Having a complete grocery list all typed up saves all those last minute trips to the store because you’re missing a key ingredient.
- HINDER IMPULSE BUYS – Planning ahead and having a menu plan also helps save money on all those impulse buys on emergency trips to the store. Tell me we’re not the only ones that end up buying junk food on those “quick trips”.
- EAT HEALTHIER – I’ve found that when I don’t have a weekly menu plan in place, we end up eating out much more often. The cost of those meals adds up quickly, especially when you have a large family. Not to mention it’s not usually the healthiest option!
- LESS WASTE – In addition, when you have a grocery list customized to your menu, you don’t end up buying a bunch of ingredients that end up in the trash.
If you want to create your own menu plan, you can always print out a blank menu plan with grocery list and use any recipes you like.
Weekly Meal Plan #37
CHOCOLATE CHIP PANCAKES
I simply serve these pancakes with whipped cream, but you can use your favorite syrup.
I like to finish off the meal with poached or scrambled eggs.
TERIYAKI MEATBALLS
Everyone loves these juicy meatballs in a sweet Asian sauce. Serve them over rice with steamed broccoli on the side to finish off the meal.
PESTO CHICKEN
Topped with pesto, mozzarella, and tomatoes, this chicken breast is absolutely packed with fresh flavor!
It pairs well with just about any vegetable. I love oven roasted cauliflower.
TACO SALAD
Seasoned ground beef and a creamy taco sauce give this salad the best flavor. It’s such a quick meal!
SALMON WITH CREAM SAUCE
Dinner can be ready in under 20 minutes with this salmon dish. The sauce is simple, but so tasty!
I love to pair it with easy rice pilaf or green salad.
DESSERT FOR THE WEEK
ALMOND JOY CHEESECAKE
If you love Almond Joy candy bars, you are going to fall for this decadent cheesecake.
