Family Meal Plan #20
My weekly family meal plans are the actual menus I have used for our family dinners. I hope you find them helpful. Feel free to borrow our menu or use these ideas as inspiration for your own meal planning.
I’ve included links to pictures and recipes where I have them, but a lot of my cooking is just figuring it out as I go, based on many years of cooking experience. If you ever have a question about anything you see here, please reach out (lots of ways to contact me below).
The menu for the week:
I don’t usually make totally separate dinners for adults and kids, but were planning for guests and the timing was going to be challenging so I needed to be flexible.
Monday: Gumbo
Tuesday: Ground beef tacos (are we calling these white people tacos now??)
Wednesday: Leftovers
Thursday: chicken & tofu stir fry
Friday: frozen pizza for kids, Costco street taco kit for adults
Saturday: Costco chicken pot pie for kids, dinner out for adults
Sunday: Salmon, rice, green salad with berries & lemon vinaigrette.
Monday: Chicken thighs with basil & garlic, zucchini patties, sliced tomatoes, white pasta.
Have a Question?
Ask me anything. Do you need lunch packing advice or meal planning suggestions? Or do you have other food or family management related questions? My goal is to be your resource for tips and advice - from a mom who has been there, and done that.
