What’s For Dinner This Week

Chicken Breast:

  • Thai Coconut Chicken Soup – Warming from the inside out, this chicken soup was created one day when I felt a cold coming on. It cleared it right up.

  • Garlic Chicken and Rice – So easy and so full of flavor! It’s one of our FAVORITE comfort foods. Serve it with steamed frozen broccoli.

Ground Turkey:

  • Cauliflower Fried Rice – Even if your family balks at cauliflower rice, they will LOVE this. (I honestly only tolerate cauliflower rice.) It’s flavor packed and you can still serve it over rice.

  • Swedish Meatballs and Mashed Potatoes – As close to IKEA meatballs as you can get. Serve with mashed potatoes. I add cranberry sauce or jam instead of lingonberry since that isn’t as easy to find.

Notes For This Week

This week’s proteins are stew meat (chunks of sirloin or chuck roast usually) and Italian Sausage.

  1. If you do nothing else to meal prep this week, mixing and forming the meatballs and precooking the chicken will get you far ahead.

  2. The other recipe components are quite straight forward and shouldn’t take long.
