Here's Your Weekly Meal Plan 🍽️


Hi Reader,

I'll be honest, hearing the birds chirping outside and waking up to a sunny day is the best ☀️! Today is one of those days. Makes us want to fire up the grill and get cookin'! So I've included some fun outdoor recipes this week.


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 over our east Mexican Rice

Serve over a bed of rice and top with mango salsa

Add some grilled zucchini on the side

A bowl of summer pasta salad goes great with these

A side of Funeral Potatoes is delicious!


The grill we LOVE!

My husband, Chef Antoine, actually has a few different grills and a smoker. The one he uses the most though? This grill and griddle combo. If you are considering a new grill, this is an awesome choice. And it's reasonably priced. Check it out!


Breakfast and Dessert

Orange Julius

The juice bar fave!

Chantilly Cake

Such a lovely treat.


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!
