I love to make simple meals that are quick to throw together. This week’s meal plan has simple and fast recipes to help you out! This post may contain affiliates links for products I’m obsessed with.
Hey, everyone!
Like I said last week, I’m trying hard to keep the Holiday spirit alive and not let the stress of the season get to me.
Wine. Wine has been helpful with this.
But, to be fair, this year it’s not just holiday related craziness. My son turned three a week ago, and we are in the process of transitioning from Early Intervention Services to the 3-5 Program and, well, it’s been pretty consuming. All of you IEP moms out there, I salute you. Even after my 14 years in Education, I am finding this process to be quite the journey.
Which is why my holiday cards are still sitting on my desk…in the envelope they came it.
Anyway, I’ll definitely be following this meal plan with you all this week. With lots of shopping left to do and party planning for Christmas Eve, I need EASY meals that will use what I already have in my fridge and pantry.

These recipes sound delicious and fairly easy too. What are the serving sizes/container equivalents for each recipe? It’s just me eating so I’d like to know how much food I’m going to end up with. Thanks!

Hi Faith! All of the container counts and serving sizes are in the recipe card at the bottom of each recipe. Most of my recipes feed 4, so maybe pick 2 to start with so you have leftovers? Let me know if this helps!
