Weekly Meal Plan #8 September 19, 2024

Creamy Turkey & Veg Soup + Pizza Pasta Skillet + Smoky Chicken Bowls with Cucumber Mango Relish + Loaded Chicken Bacon Ranch Potatoes

Hi friends.

I hope today finds you well and living life to its fullest!

It’s almost Fall so we’ve got a soup this week. You can either make the entire soup on meal prep day or just cook the turkey and cut up the veggies.

And while we tried a little something different last week, I went back to the ground meat/chicken breast format for this week. The two chicken recipes use the same rub, so you can cook all the chicken at once. For the smoky chicken bowls, you want small chicken breasts if you want to leave them whole so I’ve included a link to my video showing how to cut large chicken breasts into smaller cutlets.

As always, meal prep is not required to make your meal plans, but my component meal prep system allows the weeknight meal creation so easy and usually only about 15-20 minutes. If you haven’t tried it, set aside an hour or two this weekend and do as many of the Meal Prep steps as you can do.

If you have any questions, let me know. I’m more than happy to help. You can reply to this email or reach out on the chat.
