Your August Meal Plan is Here!
Here's every dinner recipe you'll need for the month while we're taking a break.
As we mark the last month of our summer vacation and celebrate so many anniversaries (my oldest’s birthday, our wedding anniversary, and 1 year as the owners of a cool old event space) we are taking a break to vacation, adventure, and have some fun before getting back to business and the start of another school year.
We took a break last year and decided this was definitely time worth reclaiming for personal/mental/family health. As such, we won’t be sending out the same weekly updates through the month of August.
Don’t worry, we are still providing your full month August meal plan, we just won’t be giving you the weekly break downs, round ups, essays or grocery lists until we get back at it for September.
Your FULL MONTH, downloadable plan is at the end of this post.
Now on to this week’s meals!!!
Monday: Chicken Margherita
Cherry tomatoes are going ham right now, so this recipe is just in time. Using just a few seasonings, some mozz, and a jar of pesto, you’ll have this satisfying Italian inspired dinner on the table in no time (about 30 minutes).
Tuesday: Italian Chopped Subs
More flavors, more evenly distributed into every bite and all with less chewing. What’s not to love?
Wednesday: Southwest Pasta Salad
When you have a crizazy week coming up (one where you KNOW you won’t have time to prep a meal), do what we do. Make a big ol bowl of pasta salad, and graze that stuff till it’s gone baibeee. This Southwest recipe includes our favorite creamy Cilantro Lime Dressing, and tastes great with a little leftover chicken mixed in.
Thursday: Brie Cheeseburgers
Gourmet chefs, we are not. But a fancy restaurant is NOT required to enjoy a little bougie bite now and again. We enhanced our classic cheeseburger recipe here by adding some charcuterie board flavors to the mix. Crispy prosciutto, apricot jam and brie cheese are a dynamite combo.
Friday: Foil Packet Lemon Dill Tilapia
There may be no easier way to cook fish, and ensure that you are sealing in all the fresh juicy flavor without drying it out. We love this easy grill (or oven) meal because it’s just too easy to customize with whatever veggies and seasonings you’ve got on hand.
