    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:

    • January is the National Soup Month, check out these hearty soup collection.
    • January 4 is National Spaghetti Day. Try this chicken tetrazzini with spaghetti too, so delicious.
    • January 5 is National Whipped Cream Day. Here is an easy Chantilly cream for any dessert you have in mind..

    🍊 In Season Now

    January is the season for citrus. Oranges, lemon, limes, mandarin oranges are all in season. Beets, turnip and celery roots are still in season.

    Meal Prep Tricks

    • Prepare meatloaf on Sunday and freeze for later in the week, double to use in another week.
    • Marinade chicken tenders on Sunday too, they refrigerate for up to 3-4 days.
    • Buy pre-chopped or pre-cored veggies if possible. Your time is worth money.
    • Remember you can always switch the days around and do not forget to check the rest of the meal plans.

    January 3

    A bowl of food on a plate, with Zucchini and Yogurt

    Simple and comforting stuffed zucchini cooked in delicious yogurt sauce. Skip the ground beef for a meatless meal.

    January 4

    Beef stew in a white bowl with carrots and chickpeas and garnished with some chopped parsley

    Such a simple, cozy meal! Beef stew with some chopped veggies in the comfort of your slow cooker. Make some easy Lebanese rice on the side.

    January 5

    Classic meatloaf is moist and delicious - so easy to make! The tangy glaze is over the top!. Add some pasta or mashed potatoes on the side.

    January 6

    grilled chicken tenders on a blue plate placed on a wooden table with green onions on the side.

    These chicken tenders come out deliciously tender and juicy. Make some sweet potato fries on the side
