This week our meal plan is sponsored by our friends at Filippo Berio Olive Oil and we’re featuring a wide range of recipes all made with heart-healthy and flavorful olive oil! Stock your pantry with a bottle (or two) and whip up this week’s menu.
Things to Use This Week: Use this as a guide for what to stock up on at the store, or what to grab from your pantry.
Use these as a guide for inspiration. Just because you don't have every single ingredient doesn't mean you can't replicate the main flavor of the dish!
Simple is Best!
Both of these easy recipes are short on ingredients, but long on flavor!
Start the day off strong with a delicious breakfast frittata! Leftovers can be sliced and used in breakfast sandwiches or a quick and healthy breakfast for a busy week ahead.
“Nuoc Cham” is a sauce in Vietnamese cuisine. This stuff is seriously addictive. Sweet, salty, spicy, tangy and filled with umami flavors, it hits all the right flavor notes and can be used as a dipping sauce for spring rolls and grilled meats.
You can't go wrong with roasted eggplant, especially when its marinated in herbaceous spice blends like Za'atar! Quick tip: Make a crosshatch with a paring knife before marinating, that way you’re able to get all those delicious flavors permeating through the eggplant.
Spend the day grilling outside and eating these chicken kabobs! Feel free to switch out the veggies with whatever you may have on hand, like mushrooms, bell peppers or red onions.
Summer Salads!
Warmer weather is here! Load up on leafy greens, crunchy vegetables, and make a batch of your favorite vinaigrette for easy salads during the week.
We love a good salad with lots of mix-ins! This salad great as a light lunch and is full of olives, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes and bell peppers.
This is a chicken salad we can all get behind! Your oven does most of the work! Serve in lettuce cups, over a bed of quinoa, or with your choice of gluten free bread!
Quickly whip up a batch of this zesty salsa and use it in tacos, salads, spread it on sandwiches, or just serve as is with a side of your favorite tortilla chips! The salsa comes together in less than 10 minutes, so its the perfect snack for an impromptu picnic!
