A Week At A Time – Meal Ideas!

Happy Sunday! I hope you are surviving the heat and have found refuge indoors during the past few days. It’s the perfect time to start transitioning your pantry and refrigertor from late-summer to early fall foods. We have two weeks of summertime left, so enjoy all that is out there at your local farmer’s markets.

Monday is going to be a meal that keeps our kitchen’s cool because I think it’s another scorcher outside, and these Instant Pot Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps are both quick and delicious for any meal. Tuesday is Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos — a simple dinner that’s always going to please the family and keeps us in the spirit of Taco Tuesday. A meal for two is what’s on the menu Wednesday and this Portabello Rigatoini couldn’t get any more tasty. You can always double of triple the recipe for larger families. By Thursday the weather is supposed to be normal and dare I say — it’s soup time. This Italian Weddding Soup is so flavorful and the meatballs are a cinch to make in a jiffy. The broth is loaded with spinach and other good-for-you ingredients and it sure makes great leftovers for lunch or another delightful meal. Friday evening means you made it through the week and these Zucchini Cakes with Smoked Salmon sound a little fancy, but they’re not. They are just delicious. Saturday’s are for baking a Peach Galette. Afterall, it is still summer, so why not make one last peach dessert? Have a nice week.
