Welcome to another Make My Menu Monday!! There is something about starting Monday off with all of the meals for the week planned, that makes it seem a little more peaceful. An even bigger bonus is if I have some time over the weekend to prepare some things ahead of time. For example- this week, I have the Cool Ranch Taco meat all ready made (for Monday), The taco meat (for Tuesday) & the Cobb Salads (for Wednesday) all made up!
Monday:
Cool Ranch Tacos (I make a few edits to her recipe)
These are super, super easy & here is what you need~
Chicken Thighs
3 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
2 Tablespoons of Red Wine Vinegar
1 Taco seasoning packet (or click here for a homemade version)
1 Ranch seasoning packet (or use a homemade version-1T dried parsley, 1tsp garlic powder, 1tsp onion powder, 1tsp dried onion flakes, 3/4tsp dill, 1/2tsp pepper, and 1/2 tsp salt)
*Throw everything in the crockpot, Cook on low all day, at least 8 hours
Holy Cow- it doesn’t get much easier than that!!
Tuesday:
Taco Salads~
Start with Lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, avocado, cheese.
Top with taco meat. See the Taco Seasoning recipe below 🙂

Wednesday:
Cobb Salad~
We had a salad making girls night! Everyone brings ingredients to share, the lettuce they want to use & mason jars. Each of us made 5 salads!
The ingredients are layered from wet to dry & then keep in the fridge until you are ready to eat!!!
Thursday:
Chicken & Rice bowls
Start with rice- My favorite it Whole Foods frozen rice. It’s easy & tastes really good!!
Top with left over Cool Ranch Chicken (from Monday), veggies, cheese, sour cream, guacamole! YUM!!
