Weekly Meal Plan – Menu Plan Ideas Week 20 of 52

Even though I don’t make a weekly menu plan, I still love the idea of having a bunch of recipes right in front of me to choose from. Here are a few recipes from my recipe collection I thought you might like:

Breakfast Ideas 

English Muffin Bread – This is one of those meals you can make when you have time, and then let the kids toast up in the morning when time is a commodity.  {Pin for Later}
Dutch Breakfast Puff – This is an awesome weekend treat, and best of all, it’s made entirely out of staple ingredients, so odds are, you won’t have to run to the store. {Pin for Later}
Crock Pot Steel Cut Oatmeal with Apples and Brown Sugar – I love that you can make this the night before and wake up to breakfast–and the most amazing smell ever.  {Pin for Later}
Strawberry Almond Granola – Life is just better when there is granola in the house.  It’s a fact. {Pin for Later}

Slow Cooker  and Freezer Meal Ideas

Slow Cooked Boston Baked Beans – I am not going to lie, I could eat these as a meal all by themselves, but they also make a pretty awesome side dish. {Pin for Later}
Sausage Lentil Soup – This soup rocks.  Eat it up before it gets too hot outside! {Pin for Later}
Easy Freezer Meal Meatballs – You can serve these up with the baked beans.  Everyone will love you. {Pin for Later}
Freezer Meal – Ground Beef Pot Pies – I like to make several of these at once, so there is dinner that night, and dinner 4 more nights when things are too busy to cook.  Plus, it has “pie” right in the title, you can’t go wrong.   {Pin for Later}

Soups , Salads and Main Dish Ideas

Asian Noodle Salad with Kale – This is a great way to hide use up some of that kale.  It’s served cold, and makes a tasty meal OR side dish.  {Pin for Later}
Cream Broccoli and Spinach Pasta Salad – I must be craving carbs because everything pasta is sounding good.  Since spinach and broccoli are in season, it’s a great time to make this dish.  {Pin for Later}
Pizza from scratch – The kids always love it when I make homemade pizza.  It’s super easy, and everyone is happy.  {Pin for Later}
Lasagna Cups – How do you make lasagna more delicious?  You turn it into easy to grab bite sized cupcakes.  Delicious.  {Pin for Later}

Cookies,  Snacks and Desserts

Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies with Cranberries – They’re practically a health food because of the cranberries, I promise.  {Pin for Later}
Homemade Tortillas – How are these a snack or dessert, you may ask?  Spread a little butter and sprinkle them with cinnamon and sugar, and see if you are still asking that question.  {Pin for Later}
Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas – Since you already whipped up some fresh tortillas, you might as well also have some quesadillas as a snack this week.  {Pin for Later}
Dehydrated Canned Pineapple – According to the HH, these are impossible not to eat in one sitting.  {Pin for Later}

Canning Recipe of the Week

Homemade Applesauce – I’ve noticed quite a few sales on apples lately, they must be trying to clear out last fall’s crop to make room for the new crops.  Last years or not, they make fantastic applesauce.  {Pin for Later}

What are YOU planning on making this week?
