Good morning! Are these dinner posts still helpful? I hope so. It’s been nice to plan out my week of meals and share them here to hold myself to them. I hope they don’t sound too repetitive but I don’t like to reinvent the wheel every week and I am sure you get it. Most of us don’t! But here are another five days of dinners that I have planned for the week ahead, which – by the way – the temps are going to be in the 60s and I am SO SO HAPPY! Warm comfort food, here we come.
Monday ~ Creamy pumpkin pasta using a modified version of this recipe. I found leaf and pumpkin shaped pasta from Aldi, so I know my kids will get a kick out of this dinner.
Tuesday ~ Loaded nacho night because I have a ton of corn tortillas to use up before they go to waste. This is such an easy and hearty dinner, too.
Wednesday ~ Our usual lentil stew with homemade garlic bread on the side. I may have said this before but I always save the ends of bread loaves and pop them in the freezer. Once I have enough, I use for garlic bread. Nice way to save!!
Thursday ~ Rice noodle soup night. I don’t have a recipe for this but it is essentially just a simple ramen broth made with edamame, mushrooms, bok choy, tofu and rice noodles. Lots of slurping!
Friday ~ Sheet pan vegan chik’n fingers and fries. I discussed this in my stories recently but we love a good fun Friday night dinner while we watch the Great British Bake Off together. I use Daring breaded chik’n tenders and make a batch of frozen fries on a sheet pan. I make put out a few dips – think honey mustard, ketchup/mayo, BBQ, sweet chili, etc and then we enjoy with a side of veg or fruit.
I hope you all have a lovely week. x
