Things are getting interesting with the Coronavirus, but I’m hoping to still get groceries delivered thanks to Instacart so we can still have healthy family dinners. I’m planning to use more fresh stuff this week and save the canned and non-perishable ingredients in case we really need them.

Here’s what’s for dinner this week, if all goes as planned with groceries available:

Monday

Leftover Chicken, Brown Rice and Broccoli.

Tuesday

Creamy Coconut Red Lentil Dahl from Kiwi and Bean blog. This sounds simple and delicious and I can’t wait to try it.

Wednesday

Smokey Sweet Potato Burgers from How Sweet Eats, with roasted broccoli. These burgers sound so so so good!

Thursday

Salmon and roasted veggies. Simple, healthy and delicious.

Friday

Leftovers. I’m planning to have a couple nights where we have leftovers for dinner. Using up some of our fresh produce, leftover dinners, whatever we’re all in the mood for.

Saturday

Take out. I love cooking, but have been going straight for the last few weeks and I need a little break, so we will be supporting a local restaurant and getting take out. 🙂

Sunday

TBD. This may be pancakes for dinner, or leftovers, or a new recipe. We’ll see!

I hope you find these weekly healthy family dinner meal plans helpful. 🙂 You can check out past weekly dinner plans HERE.
