April Mediterranean Diet Dinners Menu

For inspiration, I used our April Recipes to Make This Month post, which is filled with seasonal ingredients, as a guide for this week’s menu.

Monday’s dinner is a delicious but easy bowl food that’s high in flavor and veggies. Serve with whole-grain pita and salad greens for a welcoming April dinner.

Tuesday’s dinner is a protein-packed meal perfect for chilly evenings but heading into sunshine days. It’s an easy recipe that isn’t really a recipe at all. This soup is easy to customize with your favorite Mediterranean diet-inspired ingredients. Serve with a side salad and whole grain bread, if desired.

Wednesday’s dinner is a favorite spring one-skillet meal featuring roasted chicken and asparagus. Serve with more tzatziki sauce or a quick Greek yogurt sauce.

Thursday’s dinner is an easy roasted seafood dish filled with spicy pepper flavors. It’s drizzled with a honey balsamic sauce and served with wild rice pilaf.

Friday’s dinner is a quick, Mediterranean-inspired skillet dish made with ground beef. You can easily substitute the beef for your favorite meat (chicken or turkey) and serve over your preferred grain, such as rice, lentils, farro, or couscous (which is actually a pasta, but still delicious!) You could even wrap it up in a whole-grain pita, too. Serve with greens and your favorite condiments!

The Treat is naturally sweetened with protein and healthy fats. And delicious!

Have a beautiful and delicious week!
