Meal Plan #20 of 2026
This week we are making Marry Me Chicken Orzo, Zucchini Risotto, Cheesy Baked Meatballs, Creamy Salmon Pasta and Baked Beef Tacos. We’ve also had some requests to include season-appropriate alternatives to some of the dishes (think soups and salads which might not be ideal depending on the season you’re in).
We’ve also included a completed shopping list for your convenience. Simply click on the link and download! (Please note the shopping list does not include ingredients for breakfast and lunch recipes as these are optional. There is however space to add any ingredients you’ll need.)
Wednesday
Cheesy Baked Meatballs
Why You’ll love this recipe:
- Mea-prep friendly:Â The meatballs and sauce can all be prepped ahead (in fact, I always have frozen meatballs in the freezer so I just drop them straight into the sauce from frozen).
- Add a side: Serve over spaghetti or with garlic bread to mop up the sauce.
Thursday
Creamy Salmon Pasta
Why You’ll love this recipe:
- Easy substitutes: Using salmon is delicious but you can use any tinned fish of your choice. Canned tuna in this creamy sauce is simply delicious and super budget-friendly.
- Add a side: Add a big salad or some green beans!
Friday
Baked Beef Tacos
Why You’ll love this recipe:
- So easy: This is one of the easiest Friday-night dinners you’ll ever make. Especially if you happen to have a batch of taco meat in the freezer.
- Add a side: Serve with jalapeño crema for dipping, with guacamole or your favorite salsa.
