    At the end of the day, the last thing I want to do is think about cooking dinner. Is that you too? I want to get dinner on the table fast, but I also want it to be healthy for my family. This week I'm featuring 30 minute meal plans as part of our Weekly Meal Plan. I hope you use these recipes to inspire your meal planning and get dinner on the table for your family without spending a ton of time in the kitchen.

    7 dinner ideas that are ready in 30 minutes. this Recipe

    Don't forget there are printable menus available to help inspire your meal planning this week as well as a few helpful tips for 10 Essentials Pantry Items and  Freezer Meal Planning Tips.

    Meal Planning Categories

    This is just an example of how I like to meal plan. You could also incorporate a “leftover meal” or even “clean out the refrigerator” night. This is something we do at least once a week or every 10 days.

    Assign each day of the week a different category and then plan a meal according to that category.

    • Monday - Meatless, Vegetarian or even Leftovers from the weekend.
    • Tuesday - Taco Tuesday or Mexican Recipe
    • Wednesday - Chicken, Beef or Fish
    • Thursday - Pasta or Italian Night
    • Friday - Sandwiches and Soup
    • Saturday - Pizza or Eat Out, Order In
    • Sunday - Comfort Food Meal
