This weekly meal plan, week eight, is filled with hearty homemade meals that are perfect for fueling those winter activities or treating the winter time blues!
If you’re ready for winter to be over, you aren’t alone. Surprisingly to most, I’m not quite ready for winter to be over. There is still plenty of time left to go snow skiing! And I’m a big fan of shoveling snow. It’s a great workout and it’s actually quite peaceful. Besides skiing and shoveling, we of course are getting out on our ice as much as we can.
Now here is what we enjoyed during this week’s winter meal plan.
Monday (45 minutes)
- Meatball Stroganoff: This recipe takes only about 15 minutes if you make meatballs ahead of time. I will typically make 2 pounds of meatballs at one time, freeze one and use the other pound in the next day or so.
Tuesday (10 minutes)
- Leftover Veggie Lasagna Roll Ups – it makes such a large portion that about a month ago I made them and froze half of the batch.
- Spinach Salad (spinach, carrots, bell peppers, walnuts, dried cranberries, feta cheese) – this is another example of making a large batch of a meal and having enough for at least a few days.
Wednesday ( 25 minutes)
- Roast Beef/Swiss and Turkey/Colby Jack Hawaiian Sliders: the link and recipe above are actually for corned beef and Swiss sliders, however, I have fallen in love with any kind of slider made with Hawaiian rolls. They are so versatile that I will use up any deli meat and cheese I have in the fridge for this easy weeknight meal. And the kids love them too!
- Sauteed Green Beans with Almonds
Thursday (20 minutes)
Friday (10 minutes)
- Pizza carry out night!
- Served with raw vegetables and hummus
Saturday
- Slow Cooker Shredded Mexican Chicken: This recipe is great since it makes plenty of leftovers and you can eat it with soft tortillas or treat it like an appetizer and eat it with tortilla chips.
Sunday
- Leftovers!
Breakfast this week
- Homemade granola with Greek yogurt or skim milk: I double this batch and it lasts about a week
- Peanut Butter and Honey Oatmeal
- Cereal: Quaker Squares, Kix, with skim milk
Lunch this week
- peanut butter/almond butter and jelly sandwiches (on whole wheat bread)
- yogurt
- cheese sticks
- cherry tomatoes
- sliced apples, clementines, strawberries, cantalope
- Applesauce pouches
Snacks this week
- Sliced strawberries, apples
- pretzels and hummus
