Happy first week of fall! Our first day of fall (yesterday) was so beautiful and surprisingly warm compared to all the rain we had last week. It was sunny and around 60 degrees. Kind of a perfect fall day! Next week we're headed to a pumpkin patch, and I'm really hoping to also go apple picking. I've never done it before, so that could be really fun!
We had some comfort meals last week, but since the weather is looking nicer for this week, I'm throwing on some dinner favorites that are easy (truly, like quick meals), but also really satisfying to eat.
Here's what I'm cooking this week:
One Pan Salmon, Asparagus, & Sweet Potato Dinner
Sometimes you need a superfood fix, and this one pan salmon dinner with asparagus and sweet potatoes provides a full meal that is easy, healthy, and quick!
Chicken Tinga Tacos
Whether you love the Latin flavors of a tinga sauce, or have never tried it, these healthy 30-min chicken tinga tacos are a tasty way to get your fix!
Honey Ginger Stir Fry
This simple, flexible recipe for honey ginger stir fry with chicken should be one of your go-to easy weeknight dinner recipes!
Slow-Cooker Sloppy Joe Sliders
Sweet & tangy, slightly sophisticated and fun, these slow-cooker sloppy joe sliders up the ante and are perfect for your game day munchies!
Butternut Squash and Sage Lasagna
This meatless butternut squash and sage lasagna recipe is decadent & rich, with a creamy white cheese filling. Add bacon to be over the top!
Overnight Apple Crisp French Toast
Not a morning person? Make this yummy Overnight Apple French Toast Crisp the night before, & then effortlessly savor the goodness of fall food the next AM!
Homemade Spanish Rice
This spanish rice is as easy as the boxed rice you buy at the store, more flavorful, and healthier. This is the perfect side to your taco nights.
Swirled Pumpkin Cheesecake Brownies
These swirled pumpkin cheesecake brownies are fun, festive, and easy to make! Not too sweet, with a subtle pumpkin flavor, let the kiddos help whip them up!
If your last few weeks have been looking anything like mine (busy!), then a dinner in the crockpot might just be the thing you're wanting to make. However, not everyone loves to use the crockpot, or if you prefer, the slow cooker. So if you're such a person and you prefer the Instant Pot, then you will find this Pinterest board very helpful! I save a ton of Slow Cooker and Instant Pot meals to it because I know people oftentimes like one more than the other. I'm a slow cooker girl, myself! 😆
I hope this weekly menu is helpful to you, and each week you are able to try one or two meals or make a list of meals you want to make!
Have a great week everyone!
