If you want to feel ahead in your day and week- try planning out weekly dinners. If you are new to meal planning see my post & step by step guide to weekly meal planning. It has been life changing for our household! Each week I plan our weekly dinner menu, by making 1 decision about dinner for the entire week, we save money and time. Plus, we don’t have to make 7 decisions about dinner, just 1.
Our weekly dinners:
Monday:
Italian Sausage and Roasted Tomato Cream Cavatappi with Peas (Home chef meal)
Tuesday:
Cool Ranch Chicken Tacos by Family Freezer
This is one of my favorite go to recipes!
*Throw everything in the crockpot, Cook on low all day, at least 8 hours
Holy Cow- it doesn’t get much easier than that!
Wednesday:
Leftovers
Thursday:
Garlic-Sesame Steak Noodles with Snow Peas and Honey Roasted Peanuts (Home Chef meal)
Friday:
Air fried chicken
Our Ninja Air frier makes perfect “fried chicken”- it’s so easy!
Just preheat the frier to 390
While the frier is preheating put chicken thighs in a quart size bag- add spices (salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder)
spray the inside with cooking spray
Add 4 chicken thighs to the frier
Cook for 12 minutes, flip and cook for 8 min
Brussel Sprouts
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
-
- If you have large brussel sprouts, cut in half. Put them on a cookie sheet & drizzle olive oil over & sprinkle with salt
- Roast them for anywhere from 20-40 minutes depending on the size. You want them to be crispy and slightly browned, but watch them because they can go from perfect to burnt to a crisp quickly!
While they are roasting, make the sauce-
-
- 2 TBLHoney, 1 tsp Sriracha & a splash of lime juice
- Once they are done, let them cool slightly. Then add some more salt to taste.
Saturday:
Out to eat!
Sunday:
Leftovers
There are 3 things that I do that make planning our weekly menu so much simpler:
- Follow my weekly meal planner guide
- Use 2 Home Chef meals a week (I always pick the oven ready options)
- Writing our meals down on my FREE weekly dinner printable

Question on your air-fryer chicken. When you say “spray the inside”, are you talking about inside the plastic bag or inside the air-fryer?
Hi Elsi! It means spray the inside of the basket air-fryer. I hope this helps- let me know if you have any more questions!
