I've been sharing 5-day meal plans with my email subscribers for many years now, started sharing some of those on Instagram and I love the feedback I get from those who love the meal plans and use them regularly.

If you’re new to my meal plans, they normally include 5 dinner recipes and one or two desserts to satisfy your sweet tooth. I'm trying my best to be thoughtful and add a variety of recipes with plenty of wiggle room for you to add or subtract food and I always suggest you make a day per week for leftovers or use them for lunch the next day.

📅 Food Holidays

This week we are having some interesting and fun days to celebrate. These days are a good opportunity to raise awareness, shed some light, or inspire you to create more recipes in your kitchen. So let's check them out:y.

🫑 In Season Now

Beets, cabbage, cauliflower, potato, leek, lettuce, spinach and winter squash.

Meal Prep Tricks

  • Remember to prep as much ahead of time as possible.
  • Buy pre-chopped or pre-cored veggies if possible. Your time is worth money.
  • Brown enough ground beef on Sunday to use them for Tuesday and Friday dinners.
  • Leftover Manakish makes a great lunch the next day.
  • You can assemble the zucchini dish, bake on Sunday and just heat it through on Tuesday..

December 20

Za'atar and cheese manakish placed on a concret surface with bowls of dips in the back.

Try Manakish recipe for a meatless night, I love the Za'atar one but my kidos like the cheese more.

December 21

A pyrex glass dish of zucchini with a serving spoon in it.

Healthy zucchini casserole and in my opinion the best and I am sure you will love it. Pairs beautifully with Lebanese rice.

December 22

A green plate with white rice and baked cod.

The cream lemon sauce for this baked cod is so tasty, scoop it over rice or mop your plate with crusty bread.

December 23

A plate of food, with Chicken Kofta and yellow rice

Chicken kofta is as tasty in the oven as it is on the grill, try it with some yellow rice.

December 24

A plate of food, with Makdous

Eggplant fatteh is an easy dish made with eggplants, ground beef, pita chips and amazing yogurt sauce.
