Weekly Meal Plan #40

Breakfast for Dinner Bowl + Sausage & Kale Soup + Sheet Pan Chicken Thighs & Veggies + Hot Honey Garlic Chicken | 2 Proteins = 4 Budget-Friendly Meals

Hot Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs

Hey Friends.

This week, we’re definitely entering comfort food zone. Three of the four recipes have potatoes or sweet potatoes…the ultimate comfort food. (Check out the notes on the recipes for subs if you would rather not eat potatoes at that many meals or you’re doing Keto or Paleo.)

We’re also using bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs this week because they stay juicy even after cooking twice (once originally and once to warm on meal night.) You’re going to make double when you make the sheet pan dinner, then the second round will be coated with a delicious hot honey sauce and broiled until dark brown. So meal prep is baked right into this week even if you don’t have time to set aside on Sunday.

By the way, did you know you can use my meal plans even if you’re not gluten or dairy free? I don’t eat gluten or use milk in my recipes due to my intolerances, but I always include subs for those who do. In fact, I include notes for each recipe with subs for several dietary needs including keto, paleo, kid friendly and even vegan when possible.

If you have any questions, let me know. I’m more than happy to help. You can reply to this email or reach out on the chat.

This week’s meal plans:

Breakfast Sausage (can DIY from any ground meat with included recipe)

• Breakfast for Dinner Bowls – A family fave. DF & GF sausage gravy (with subs for those not needing DF or GF) over scrambled eggs and home fries. We serve it on a bed of spinach with olive oil soaked tomatoes to include the rainbow, but you can serve with a side of fruit instead.

• Sausage & Kale Soup – Sausage, Kale and either potatoes or beans (cook’s choice) in a creamy broth. It’s the one soup my family will all eat even with green things in it!

Bone-In, Skin-On Chicken Thighs

• Sheet Pan Roasted Chicken Thighs & Veggies  – Roasted chicken thighs, sweet potatoes onions, and kale. You will be roasting double chicken thighs to use for the other meal.

• Hot Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs with Carrot Slaw and Rice  – Extra chicken thighs get glazed with a sweet sauce then re-roasted (oven or air fryer) and served with rice and an easy but flavorful salad
