Discover A Week At A Time – Meal Ideas to simplify your weekly cooking routine with easy, delicious, and time-saving recipes.

Summer officially begins this week and to kick things off we are starting with a Sauteed Shrimp and Zucchini Quinoa Salad with Dilly Vinaigrette. This salad has a mix of warm and cool flavors and the quinoa adds additional protein and nuttiness to the plate — a dish I think you’ll love. Tuesday is usually taco night, but these Seared Ahi Nachos are so beautifully flavorful that I don’t think you will in fact miss a taco tonight.

On Wednesday, it’s grill night and these Grilled Pork Chops with Fresh Cherry Salsa shouldn’t be missed for a couple of reasons — it’s cherry season and the combination of sweet and savory is just delicious. Slow Cooker Asian Chicken and Coconut Rice makes life really simple on Thursday. It’s a low and slow recipe that you layer in a pot and dinner is done before the sun begins to set.

Friday is officially the start of summer and what better way to begin than with a Watermelon Mojito — cool, refreshing, and so tasty on a warm evening. Saturday’s are for baking a Cherry Apple Almond Crostata or an Italian rustic tart — as it’s also called. Fresh cherries are super ripe and now is the time to take full advantage of this luscious fruit. Have a tasty week — yay for summer!
