This week’s menu is full of fresh, satisfying meals that are easy to make and perfect for warm-weather dinners and lunches.
Start the week with grilled whole sweet potatoes. They’re simple to prepare and endlessly adaptable—top them with rotisserie chicken, black beans, or a dollop of yogurt and herbs. Pair with a crisp green salad for a balanced, flavorful meal.
Midweek, try apricot chicken with broccoli. It’s a family favorite because it’s fast, comforting, and full of sweet-savory flavor. Serve over rice or alongside steamed vegetables for a complete plate.
Shrimp salad rolls make a fast, light dinner that’s perfect for hot evenings. Toss quick zesty shrimp with crunchy vegetables and herbs, roll in soft bread or wraps, and serve with kettle-style potato chips for a classic summer combo.
On another night, enjoy a slow-roasted tomato farro salad. This grain salad is hearty enough to be a main dish, tastes fantastic warm or chilled, and features caramelized tomatoes and bright herbs for big flavor.
Grilled Thai pork tenderloin is a great option for a weekend cookout. Marinated and grilled to juicy perfection, it’s a crowd-pleaser with bold, savory notes—excellent for serving with grilled vegetables or a fresh slaw, and leftovers make brilliant sandwiches.
Finish the week with a potato chip frittata, an ingenious clean-out-the-fridge dinner. Eggs, cheese, veggies, and a salty crunch from potato chips create a satisfying, no-fuss meal that comes together in one skillet.
For lunches, prepare Mediterranean marinated chickpeas. They’re versatile—toss them into salads, spread them on toast, or eat them straight from the container for a protein-packed midday boost. For breakfasts, rainbow chia pudding parfaits are colorful, nutrient-dense, and easy to prep ahead for busy mornings.
