This meal plan is full of my favorite easy dinners that I know your family will love, too! They’re quick, kid-approved, and perfect for those crazy nights when you just need something delicious on the table fast!
This week’s menu is filled with recipes that have been lifesavers in my house! You know those nights when everyone’s hungry, time is tight, and you just want something easy and delicious? These meals are my go-to for exactly that. They’re the kind of dishes that bring everyone to the table without complaints, and the best part? There’s usually enough left over for lunch the next day.

Wednesday: Creamy Spinach Artichoke Chicken
Thursday: Crockpot BBQ Meatballs
Friday: Air Fryer Garlic Steak Bites
This free weekly meal plan is just what you need to get your week started. It provides five meals that will feed 4-6 (depending on if you are feeding adults or kids), AND it includes a shopping list! With fresh new ideas and easy-to-make recipes, having a weekly menu plan will be a lifesaver.
If you haven’t tried planning your meals ahead of time, this is going to be a game-changer for you! Here’s why I swear by meal planning:
Time Saver: No more 4:00 PM panic about dinner. With a menu plan, you know exactly what’s on the menu, what you need, and how long it takes to cook.
Money Saver: Meal planning works wonders for your wallet. When you organize your shopping list for the week, then you’ll easily spot opportunities to buy in bulk and creatively repurpose leftovers for future meals. It’s a clever approach that keeps more money in your pocket.
Bye-Bye Takeout: When your dinners are planned ahead of time and groceries are stocked, you’re less likely to hit the drive-thru. Because you are cooking at home, that means more savings and healthier eating. Win-win!
My weekly meal plans always include a printable shopping list that is measured out and ready to go. It makes things so easy!
I only meal plan Monday-Friday because we sometimes have plans over the weekend or I have leftovers that we can have to finish off the week! If you do have leftovers, make sure to store them properly in an airtight container in your fridge.
