Quick Dinner Ideas for This Week’s Meal Plan
Welcome to a new week and a new menu plan. This week’s plan has quite a few quick and easy dinners this week.
I have a good amount of frozen broccoli on hand. So I decided to use it in the couscous chicken and vegetable dish this week.
I also stocked our freezer with pork chops after the purchase of pork loin. It was just $1.99 a pound.
Buying the pork loin is so much less expensive than buying precut pork chops. If you don’t know how to cut your own chops from a pork loin you can watch this video.
In a few of our dinners this week we’ll be using the cooked ground beef I made for the freezer a week or so ago when I got a deal at Safeway. I purchased 10 pounds of ground beef for just $2.99 a pound such a great deal.
I also purchased a huge watermelon at Walmart for just $5 so we have watermelon to enjoy for a while too.
Finally, my son requested to have pizza cups this week. We haven’t had them in a while and with the cooler weather here it will be a good dinner that will help heat up the house too.

I love eating broccoli with dinner…it’s easy to prepare and I actually really like the taste. We were having it so often, without my realizing it, that my husband asked to have a break from it! Oops! Glad that you got a good deal on some for your family 🙂
Have a great week!
Erin, it sounds like you really like broccoli. I hope you have a great week too.
