Easy Stovetop Meals Menu Plan

This week I wanted to keep my menu plan simple. When you cook dinner regularly for your family, you just need an easy meal week every now and then, this is an easy meals week for me.

Most of these meals can be made in no time, on the stovetop or on the grill. Making for easy meal prep for me but still delicious homemade food for my family.

Our week starts with an easy hamburger skillet dish. It’s like a homemade hamburger helper but so much better. It’s super easy to make with just a few ingredients. Our whole family loves this easy dish that is cheap to make too.

The cranberry chicken is one of the recipes included in the chicken freezer cooking ebook. I usually make it in the slow cooker. Technically it’s not a stovetop meal but it is an easy slow cooker meal to make.

I’ll also be making a second dish from the chicken freezer cooking ebook this week, Thai Chicken Stir Fry. The Herb Rubbed Pork Chops are from the pork loin freezer ebook.

Freezer meals are great when you don’t feel like cooking because some of the work is already done for you. Since both of these are prepared on the stovetop they are great for those warmer days soon to come.

Breakfast for dinner is always something my family loves and it’s on our menu plan too. My husband calls it a California breakfast, it’s eggs, sausage, hash browns, and toast.

  1. Your menu looks good, Shelly! My family loves breakfast for dinner, too.

    This week, we’ll be having soup twice, enchiladas, BLTs, and Mexican rice and beans. 🙂

  2. I love doing skillet meals…easy to make and easy to clean up! The stroganoff looks like something my kids would love 🙂

    This week I’ve made taco chicken bowls and sloppy joes so far…tonight we’re having a reuben sandwich without the bread, called Reuben in a Bowl.
