Use my weekly meal plans to take the stress out of dinnertime! These premade meal plans and grocery shopping lists are the best way to save time and money while feeding your family healthy and nutritious meals. With a daily main course and mix and match sides, dinner just got a whole lot easier!
This week’s meal plan includes: baked chicken Parmesan, teriyaki chicken bowls, beef enchilada casserole, vegetarian chili and buttermilk biscuits, red wine braised short ribs with mashed potatoes and glazed carrots, and frittata for Sunday brunch!
To simplify your grocery shopping list:
- If desired, you can add other veggies to your teriyaki chicken bowl, broccoli florets, red bell pepper, peas and water chestnuts would all be good.
- Feel free to add or substitute any number of different vegetables and beans you might have on hand or prefer for the chili.
- Replace the ground beef in the enchilada casserole with lighter options like turkey or chicken.
- You can always make your own enchilada sauce, but for even faster assembly on busy nights, pick up a large can of your favorite enchilada.
- The chili, enchilada casserole, and frittata are all leveled up with toppings like chopped tomato, jalapeño, sour cream, avocado, a squirt of lime, and some fresh chopped cilantro.

Meal Prep & Leftover Tips
Baked Chicken Parmesan: Top with my easy homemade marinara sauce and serve over your favorite noodles with a veggie side of your choice for a complete meal.
Teriyaki Chicken Rice Bowls: My favorite homemade teriyaki sauce gets an added kick of heat from the Japanese 7 spice. If you like your heat on the gentle side, start off with adding ½ teaspoon to the sauce and add more to taste.
Beef Enchilada Casserole: Give the tortillas a quick dunk in hot oil to soften them and give them a richer flavor. If you skip this step, they’ll likely crack or crumble when you try to layer them.
Red Wine Braised Short Ribs: This recipe can be made ahead, then refrigerated for up to 3 days before serving. To reheat, set at room temperature for an hour or so, then reheat on the stove on medium-low until warmed through.
Bacon Broccoli Potato Frittata: This combo of broccoli, potato, and bacon was inspired by leftovers I had when I created the recipe, but toss in any meats, cheeses, and veggies you have leftover from throughout the week.
Buttermilk Biscuits: To reheat biscuits, wrap them in foil or place on a sheet pan covered with foil and heat in a 300°F oven for about 15 minutes (or until warm). Remove the foil and broil on low for just a minute to help revive them even further.
