I love the recipes in this weekly meal plan! They are packed with flavor and you have options of using the slow cooker, air fryer or just your good old fashioned oven!

Weekly meal planning is a must around my house. It saves so much time and money (skip the takeout, make it cheaper at home)! Check out all of my weekly meal plans here.

Get excited for this week’s meal plan! I made sure there was a little something for everyone with pasta, beef, and some of my all-time favorite, air fryer salmon! If you don’t love the heat, go ahead and swap out the Firecracker Meatballs for Swedish Meatballs instead!

How Many Does it Feed?

This free weekly meal plan is just what you need to get your week started. It provides five meals that will feed 4-6 (depending on if you are feeding adults or kids), AND it includes a shopping list! With fresh new ideas and easy-to-make recipes, having a weekly menu plan will be a lifesaver.

Slow Cooker Cashew Chicken

An amazing slow cooker meal that is way better than takeout! The chicken is breaded to perfection and the sauce is full of flavor! The cashews hidden throughout are the best part!

Air Fryer Salmon

Melt-in-your-mouth brown sugar garlic air fryer salmon is juicy, tender and full of flavor. Salmon is so good, especially when it’s cooked right, and the air fryer makes it perfect every time! It’s an easy, hands-off way to make a scrumptious meal.

Why Should I Meal Plan? 

If you haven’t tried planning your meals ahead of time, this is going to be a game-changer for you! Here’s why I swear by meal planning:

  • Time Saver: No more 4:00 PM panic about dinner. With a menu plan, you know exactly what’s on the menu, what you need, and how long it takes to cook.
  • Money Saver: Prepare to be amazed – meal planning works wonders for your wallet. When you organize your shopping list for the week, then you’ll easily spot opportunities to buy in bulk and creatively repurpose leftovers for future meals. It’s a clever approach that keeps more money in your pocket.
  • Bye-Bye Takeout: When meals are planned and groceries are stocked, you’re less likely to hit the drive-thru. Because you are cooking at home, that means more savings and healthier eating. Win-win!

Side Dishes for Dinner

My weekly meal plans always come with a printable shopping list that is all measured out and ready to go! It makes things so easy!

Storing Leftovers for Meal Planning

I only meal plan Monday-Friday because we sometimes have plans over the weekend or I have leftovers that we can have to finish off the week! If you do have leftovers, make sure to store them properly in an airtight container in your fridge.
