Your December Meal Plan is Here!
Balancing indulgence
In December, we lean all the way into our most comforting savory meals. We fully embrace our sweet tooth. And we balance our indulgence with nourishing easy meals.
This month spend as much time as possible with your loved ones, and if you need to, use one of these recipes as an excuse to gather, bake/cook together, and share your blessings with each other and those around you.
Paid subscribers, your FULL MONTH, downloadable plan is at the bottom of this email along with the Grocery List FREEBIE for EVERYONE! Let us know if you have any questions by replying to this email or leaving a comment.
Now on to this week’s meals!!!
Monday: Crock Pot Barbacoa Tacos
Starting with a big batch of our shredded barbacoa beef is a great way to kick off a new month. You can make delicious tacos/burritos, and have plenty of leftovers for freezing, or for tomorrow nights dinner…
Tuesday: Mexican Beef Stew
Last night’s leftovers never tasted this good. This hearty veggie, beef and potato stew is packed with punchy Mexican-inspired flavors.
Wednesday: Italian Dressing Chicken
An EASY grilled chicken that you can make outdoors OR indoors in a flash with just a bottle of Italian dressing and some chicken breast. We love to serve this alongside some sheet pan roasted broccoli and cauliflower.
Thursday: Simple Pasta and Peas
A 30 minute meal that gets my kids to eat a green vegetable? Peas and thank you! Thanks to the familiar “shells and cheese” format and some cubed pancetta, this recipe has something that everyone can love.
Friday: Honey Garlic Pork Tenderloin
If you think that pork is reserved to overly salty, dried out broiled chops or shredded sandwiches, allow me to introduce you to the “filet mignon” of sweet juicy pork. We like to serve this tender masterpiece with a side of roasted sweet potatoes and goat cheese.
