Youโ€™ll get a main dish plus easy side ideas for every weekday, with family-friendly recipes that I hope will make everyone at the table happy, even the picky ones!

Meal Plan โ€” Week 56

Monday

โ€‹Chicken Lasagna Roll Ups โ€“ Creamy, cheesy chicken tucked into little lasagna bundles, each one feels like a treat! Serve them up and watch everyone count how many are left before asking for seconds.

Side Dish:

  • Smashed Broccoli: Cheesy, crunchy-edged broccoli thatโ€™s actually kid-approved.
  • Beet and Carrot Saladโ€‹: Sweet, earthy, and brings a cheerful pop of color to your plate.

Tuesday

โ€‹Turkey Breastโ€‹ โ€“ Turkey dinner doesnโ€™t have to wait for a holiday! This air fryer turkey breast is juicy, flavorful and surprisingly easy to make. Save this one for a Sunday dinner or any night youโ€™re craving turkey.

Side Dish:

  • Smashed Potatoes: Crispy edges, fluffy centers and plenty of crunch. These potatoes belong next to that turkey, and I recommend make extra for leftovers.
  • Zesty Pasta Salad: Pasta salad is always a good idea, especially when you want something you can make ahead. Itโ€™s colorful, full of flavor and perfect alongside roasted turkey.

Wednesday

โ€‹Greek Chicken Meatballsโ€‹ โ€“ Juicy, flavorful chicken with Mediterranean spices. These bites disappear fast (my kids always go back for seconds)! Make double the amount so you can have them for lunch or another dinner.

Side Dish:

  • Lemon Pasta: Light, fresh, fluffy and full of flavor.
  • Melitzanosalata: A smoky eggplant dip thatโ€™s so good alongside chicken meatballs. Just keep some warm pita nearby for scooping.

Thursday

Penne Pizza โ€“ Pizza night and pasta night teamed up, and nobody at the table is complaining! Saucy penne, melty cheese, and your favorite pizza toppings make this one easy to love. Try to save a little for tomorrowโ€™s lunchโ€”but I make no promises.

Side Dish:

  • Garlic Bread: Buttery, garlicky, and ready to scoop up every last bit of pasta sauce. Go ahead and reach for a second pieceโ€”thatโ€™s why you should make extra.
  • Air Fryer Frozen Broccoli: A little green to go with all that cheesy goodness! Grab a bag from the freezer and let the air fryer handle your veggie sideโ€”no thawing, no fuss.

Friday

โ€‹Tuscan Shrimp Pasta โ€“ Juicy shrimp, sun-dried tomatoes, and a creamy Parmesan sauce that makes me want to twirl up just one more bite.

Sude Dush:

  • Greek Salad with Feta: Crunchy veggies, briny olives, and creamy feta bring a fresh little zing to pasta night.
  • Mediterranean Roasted Vegetables: Colorful, warmly seasoned veggies. Pop them in the oven and make a little room beside those creamy noodles.

Desserts

โ€‹โ€‹Pecan Snowball Cookiesโ€‹: Buttery little bites in a snowy sugar coatโ€”take a bite before you take a sip of coffee!
