Chicken, pasta, pizza, and more in this edition of Easy Dinner Menus Ideas Week 3. The desserts are a special way to say I love you and surprise the family.
Easy Dinner Menu Ideas Week 3 brings more variety! I’m still partnering with my friends Hezzi-d’s Books and Cooks and A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures, so you’ll see delicious recipes from them in addition to mine.
The mains this week are pretty straightforward, burgers, pizza, pasta, and chicken. Where I live we can grill year-round. If that’s not the case where you live, you can certainly make the burger on an indoor grill or even a cast-iron skillet.
The bonus recipes are two adult beverages. A honey bourbon hot toddy to warm up on a chilly day and a blood orange cosmopolitan to enjoy after a long week.
In addition to these easy dinner menu ideas, week 3 have you missed the previous ones? It’s easy to mix and match menus.
I hope you’re enjoying these menus and they are beneficial to your weekly meals. Be sure to refer to the week 1 post for planning strategies and a helpful weekly meal planning printable.
I find when I use the meal planner I stick to my menu throughout the week. Just seeing what’s on tap keeps me organized and my family from constantly asking “what’s for dinner”.
Now, that’s not to say I won’t switch dinner ideas between nights. Plus it’s a great idea to use recipes from other weeks in your planning. Mixing and matching menus is encouraged!
Easy Dinner Menu Ideas Week 3
The pecan coating adds a delightful crunch to ordinary chicken. This chicken dinner has so much flavor and uses only four ingredients.
Pasta with Pomodoro Cream Sauce. - It’s pasta, canned tomatoes, cream, Parmesan, and basil. That’s it.
Simple yet delicious, these Colby Jack cheeseburgers are perfect all summer long.
Pizza lovers will fall for this meat lover's skillet pizza.
Pantry friendly, budget-friendly and taste-bud friendly, this Pappa al Pomodoro packs powerful flavor into the simplest of ingredients.
Just about everyone loves some form of a potato but these roasted potatoes with rosemary and onions are a perfect side to the Pecan Chicken above.
A nice light dessert that's easily increased to serve more people.
These brownies look so pretty with a fun swirl on the top. They have a full chocolate flavor that almost melts in your mouth.
Warm-up with a honey bourbon hot toddy. It's also comforting if you're feeling under the weather.
This drink is fruity and a little sweet, a little tart, but just about perfect.
