Here's Your Weekly Meal Plan 🍽️


Hi Reader,

How's the new year treating you? So far so good over here! It's still cold here in Wisconsin, maybe ten years from now I'll be writing this newsletter from Florida or Texas. 😆🥶

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 salad and/or breadsticks on the side

This is a meal in itself, or you can serve it alongside a stir fry!

Garlic bread or salad work great as a side

Serve over noodles or on a bed of rice

This fish pairs really well with our Lemon Couscous


Ditch the mitts

I haven't used regular oven mitts or hot pads for YEARS. My husband and I both swear by these gloves. They're great for changing light bulbs too!


Breakfast and Dessert

Banana Upside Down Muffins

A soft, nutmeg spiced base with sticky caramelized banana topping make the best ever banana upside down muffins!

Glazed Lemon Blueberry Cake

This is the easiest lemon blueberry cake topped with brown sugar streusel and a simple glaze!

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!
