Welcome to February! I love this week's menu and couldn't be more excited to share it with you. Lots of easy dinners packed with family-friendly flavors!
Now let's talk about the food! This week starts out with one of my family's favorite recipes - Slow Cooker Sesame Beef. Monday night brings One Pot Creamy Mushroom and Chicken Pasta. Tuesday brings a Hoisin Pork Stir Fry and Wednesday is Turkey Chili. To end the week, enjoy Roasted Sausages with Brussels Sprouts and Potatoes, Shrimp Tostadas, and Chicken Caesar Burgers.
- Meal Prep: A little work on Sunday goes a long way to make meals faster during the week. You can prep the couscous, chili, and prep all your veggies.
- Cooking Tip: Make sure to look for lean turkey or chicken sausages for the Roasted Sausages. If you used pre-cooked sausages, add them in the last ten minutes so they don't overcook.
- Love leftovers: Double up the Turkey Chili to store extras in the freezer.
Weight Watchers! We are excited to share a new feature that allows you to choose between Green, Blue, and Purple Smartpoints! Then you will get a customized plan for that plan! You can switch between plans at any point - it's all included with your membership.
And here's a preview of some of this week's delicious meals!
One Pot Creamy Mushroom and Chicken Pasta: This twenty minute one pot pasta dish with a creamy Parmesan sauce is surprisingly light and healthy but tastes like an indulgent restaurant style dish.
Chicken Caesar Burgers: These simple chicken burgers are made with just a few ingredients you probably already have on hand. Easy to make, full of flavor, and always a huge hit with families.
Hoisin Pork and Vegetable Stir Fry: Pork tenderloin is often overlooked as an easy protein for stir-fries but it cooks quickly and stays tender. Add all your favorite vegetables and dinner is ready in less than 20 minutes.
Broccoli Cheddar Egg Muffins: These muffins are the perfect portable breakfast option. They are packed with protein, easy to make and meal prep, and can be taken on the run.
Remember to check out the healthy, low carb, and vegetarian meal plans all with nutritional info and Freestyle SmartPoints.
