Weekly Meal Plan 020
Each year we buy half of a cow to last us for the year and that time is here. We find it’s more cost efficient and the beef is excellent quality! Needless to say we had several meals with beef this week, as usual, but we definitely treated ourselves to some steak cuts for Mother’s Day.
Here are the recipes from last week’s menu. Click each meal to take you to its recipe below!
Ground Beef and Broccoli with Steamed Rice
BBQ Sandwiches with Potato Salad and Baked Beans
Honey Garlic Chicken Tenders with Green Beans and Couscous
Steaks with Roasted Asparagus and Baked Potatoes
Ground Beef and Broccoli with Steamed Rice
This was a fun twist on the regular beef and broccoli. The sauce was really good and it was easy and fast to make! I did mine a little differently but I’ll put the modifications below.
Easy Korean Ground Beef and Broccoli
Modification:
I browned the ground beef in a skillet then added the garlic. Instead of steaming the broccoli, I cooked it in a wok. Once it was tender I added in the cooked beef and sauce and let them all simmer until the sauce thickened and the broccoli was fully cooked.
Cheeseburger Sliders
This meal is one that makes a lot! Instead of cutting the recipe in half, I freeze half of it and we have it another time. This was one of those weeks! I’ve shared this meal before so I’ll link that blog here.
Chili and Cornbread
Who doesn’t love chili and cornbread? I feel like everyone has a favorite chili and it’s always a little different than everyone else’s. They also have very strong opinions about it being the best chili ever, hence all the chili cook offs. Am I right? Cornbread can be equally competitive. I have mixed feelings about this because I have several favorites of both! So if you’re willing to break away from your chili and cornbread of choice, here is the chili and cornbread combo I find to be “the crowd pleaser”, meaning everyone likes it and it’s the one I make most often.
BBQ Sandwiches with Potato Salad and Baked Beans
I have shared this BBQ recipe in the past. Before we used it on baked potatoes. This week we used it on sandwiches! It’s very versatile and if we have leftovers, I like to broil the meat on a pan for carnitas. So good. I’ll link that blog here.
Skillet Enchiladas
My dad sent me this recipe a couple weeks ago and said it was good! I read through it and asked him if it was really that simple. And believe me, it is! Very good and so easy!
Modification:
I used fire roasted diced tomatoes and Rotel would be a good tomato option.
Honey Garlic Chicken Tenders with Green Beans and Couscous
This oven baked chicken is one of our favorites because it’s just so delicious. It’s also easy and doesn’t take long to cook! Throw in some roasted green beans and our favorite couscous and it makes for a yummy easy dinner that even the kids enjoy.
Baked Honey Garlic Chicken Tenders
Steaks with Roasted Asparagus and Baked Potatoes
I only season my steak with salt and pepper because I like to taste the beef. My husband likes a good douse of Dale’s seasoning. It really depends on your tastes how you season! As far as asparagus, this is my favorite recipe!
I hope this gives you some dinner ideas for the week! Happy cooking!
