Simple Weekly Dinner Meal Plan
This easy meal plan helps you get delicious dinners on the table all week long without any stress.
recipesbynani.comPlanning your meals for the week is the best way to save time and stay organized. I love knowing exactly what I am cooking when five o'clock rolls around, and it really helps keep my grocery budget in check too.
My biggest tip is to prep your vegetables on Sunday so you can toss them into your recipes quickly during the busy work week. This plan is designed to be flexible, so feel free to swap in your family favorites whenever you like.
🧺 Ingredients
- 1 rotisserie chicken
- 2 pounds fresh broccoli florets
- 1 pound pasta of your choice
- 4 large salmon fillets
- 1 jar of your favorite marinara sauce
- 2 bags of mixed salad greens
- 1 container cherry tomatoes
- 1 pack flour tortillas
- 1 can black beans
- 1 bag shredded cheddar cheese
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Start your week by roasting or shredding the rotisserie chicken to use for salads and tacos.
- 2
Cook the pasta according to the package directions and toss it with the marinara sauce and half of your broccoli.
- 3
Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, then bake them at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 12 minutes.

Use the remaining chicken and black beans to assemble quick tacos for an easy weeknight meal.

💡 Tips
Store your chopped vegetables in airtight containers to keep them crisp for several days. If you have leftovers, they make for a perfect lunch the next day. You can also freeze portions of cooked pasta if you find you made a little too much.
