This week's menu is filled with some of my favorite recipes! Chicken, beef, pork, and fish are all on the menu, so there's something for everyone!
If you're looking for ideas for side dishes to serve with your meal, try making 1-Hour Rolls, a delicious, tender roasted root vegetable, or a classic wedge salad.
What's for dinner this week?
You'll love this week's menu plan! I used 4 protein options so everyone can enjoy it, but also to give it some variation! If you like tacos but not fish, buy a rotisserie chicken for enchiladas and use the leftovers in tacos instead!

Why should I plan my meals?
If you’ve never meal planned before, this is a game changer for you! Here’s why I swear by meal planning:
- Save time: No more 4 p.m. dinner panics. With a menu plan, you know exactly what's on the menu, what you need, and how long it'll take to cook.
- Save money: Get ready to be amazed. Meal planning is a huge help to your wallet. By organizing your shopping list for the week, you can easily find opportunities to buy in bulk and creatively reuse leftovers. It’s a clever way to keep more money in your pocket.
- Bye Bye Takeout: Planning your meals and stocking up on groceries will reduce your chances of stopping at the drive-thru. You’ll save more money and eat healthier meals by cooking at home. Win-win!
Side dish for dinner
My weekly meal planner always comes with a printable shopping list that I can measure out and use right away! It's so convenient!
Storing Leftovers for Meal Planning
I only plan my meals from Monday to Friday, because I have plans for the weekend or have leftovers to finish the week! If you have leftovers, store them properly in an airtight container in the fridge.
