I had the best idea: make all your Copycat Olive Garden Menu favorites at home for a fun “night out” without ever leaving your kitchen. From warm breadsticks to their famous salad (and all the cozy pasta in between), I’ve got you covered.
If you love Olive Garden as much as I do, but can’t afford to go there as often as you’d like, this Olive Garden copycat menu plan makes it easy to bring “night out” vibes home. Print the grocery list, shop once, and cook your way through the greatest copycats!

I have meal plans coming out each week. If you want to make sure that you receive all of them, sign up for my newsletter here!
If you haven’t tried planning your meals ahead of time, it’s going to be a game-changer for you! Here’s why I swear by meal planning:
Time saver: That 4 PM dinner panic disappears because you already know what’s for dinner.
Money saver: Meal planning is the best for your budget. With your week organized, you can buy in bulk, stretch ingredients, and turn leftovers into something new.
Bye-bye takeout: When dinner is planned, and the fridge is actually stocked, you won’t be tempted to go through the drive-thru. You save money and eat better.
All of my weekly meal plans come with a free shopping list! It makes your shopping so easy! By using this copycat Olive Garden menu, you’ll save money, eat better, and make everyone happy!
I like to store any leftovers from the weekly meal plan dinners in an airtight container in my fridge. Then, on Saturday or Sunday, I can see what I have and use them all up! It makes weekends easy and relaxing!
