Here's Your Weekly Meal Plan 🍽️


Hi Reader,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! This week is likely full of festive meals and activities. I still want you to have some ideas for dinner though!

Weekly Meal Plan 🍽️

Here's our suggestions for delicious meals, sides to go with them, and a breakfast and dessert idea as well! [See previous meal plans ​here​].


Serve with a fresh garden salad of mixed greens

A loaf of crusty bread or my sweet cornbread is great on the side!

Sprinkle the top with some freshly grated parmesan

Make my perfect Baked Potatoes for your side

My recipe for Olive Garden Breadsticks are perfect with this


This is the ice cream maker that I use..

I've never had a problem with it, ice cream is great every time! If you've never made ice cream before this is a great model too as it's so easy to use!


Breakfast and Dessert

Crescent Danish Wreath

Cherry pie filling, crescent rolls, cream cheese, and a sweet almond drizzle come together to make this beautiful crescent danish wreath.

Peppermint Ice Cream

Peppermint ice cream comes together easily using an ice cream maker, the hardest part is waiting for it to set in the freezer!

I would love to hear if you try any of these! Leaving a comment and star rating really helps other home cooks and bakers as well!
