Sometimes you just need options. And flexible ones. By now even if you’ve tried some of my recipes, you may have noticed it’s not ideal following someone else’s (my) meal plans! I actually feel strongly about why you should meal plan for yourself.
Simply put:
You are not me. We are not the same. And that is ok. I don’t provide meal plans for you to mimic week after week. Rather, I hope you look at my meal plans to get recipe ideas and to make real food a priority and a weekly habit.
This week is a short meal planning week for me because my kids and I are leaving Thursday to visit my sister in D.C. and tour the White House, the Capitol and the FBI building (where she works).
So, instead of showing you what I’m eating (nothing spectacular, mostly leftovers from the weekend)–I’m giving you some of my most popular easy, real food recipes in these five categories: Instant Pot, Slow Cooker, Ground Beef, Vegetarian, and Fish.
Instant Pot: Instant Pot Pulled Pork Tenderloin (my most popular recipe)
Slow Cooker: Chicken Burrito Bowls (makes enough for a freezer meal or for leftovers)
Ground Beef or Turkey: Meatloaf Pizza (really tastes like pizza)
Vegetarian: Thai Yellow Curry with Baked Tofu (delicious for leftovers)
Fish: Blackened Fish Tacos (just yum!)
Buon appetito!
