Tips for this Week's Meal Plan

  • To add additional vegetables to the meals, feel free to make a big salad on Sunday and use extra toppings (like romaine, tomatoes, etc) for tacos. Serve the salad with meatloaf, soups, and lasagna. Or keep it on the cheaper side and serve cooked frozen veggies with the meatloaf and lasagna. Set aside half of the Italian sausage to add it to the lasagna. If time permits, you can even saute the sausage today and then quickly assemble and bake the lasagna later in the week.
  • On Monday: Save half the head of cabbage to use for taco toppings. I would also recommend using red potatoes vs Yukon gold since you will be using them to make parsley potatoes on Sunday.
  • On Tuesday: After preparing chicken tacos, set aside half to serve over rice later in the week. If you still have extra, add it to quesadillas for quick and hearty lunches. Use leftover cabbage to top tacos.
  • On Wednesday, adding meat to the lasagna is optional, but for this week, I recommend adding the remaining ยฝ pound of sausage to add to the lasagna. Feel free to add additional ยฝ pound of ground beef if desired as well.
  • On Thursday, make extra rice and save half to serve with the chicken stir fry on Saturday night.
  • On Friday, if you don't have a parmesan rind on hand, you can purchase one from the cheese counter of most stores. You will be adding parmesan to the lasagna, so if you have a fresh wedge, just cut off the rind to use for the soup.
  • On Saturday, use any leftover veggies (like carrots, cabbage, even celery) to make stir fry. If you are adding bok choy, add any extra to ramen soup for quick and easy lunches.
  • Overall Tip: Purchase a baguette or crusty bread to serve with soups to stretch meals a bit further. Or prepare No-Knead Dutch Oven Bread if time permits.
  • No Instant Pot? Make rice on the stove. For Cabbage Soup, saute vegetables in large soup pot, add in broth, seasonings, tomatoes, cabbage, and potatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer, until the potatoes are fork tender and the cabbage has wilted, about 40 minutes. Finish with the lemon juice.
