Weekly Meal Menu Plan - 10

Cook some savory and even something sweet this week with this fall inspired Week Menu Plan!
Weekly Meal Menu Plan - 10

This week's menu is completely Fall inspired. I want you to get some squash - pumpkin, butternut, spaghetti and include these fall recipes in your weekly dinner menu.

This week's menu plan has 12 recipes for fast changing season. Some hearty soups, make-ahead stews, and squash inspired sides and desserts!

A lot of these can be made-ahead. First 8 recipes can make 4-6 variations of week meal prep. To use this menu, make stews/soups ahead. Freeze or refrigerate. Sides can be prepared ahead too. For weekday dinner, just thaw, heat, eat and enjoy! How does that sound? I also recommend looking at previous Meal Menus for some mix and match recipe ideas here.

I hope you will enjoy!

PS: How are you liking two meal plans per month schedule? Don't forget to leave your feedback. I try to reply to every feedback I receive.
