What to Cook This Week: (Aug 26-30): Family Friendly Dinners
It's the last week of August, summer is coming to a close. You're busy, here's one thing you can check off your list. Dinner. And what to make. These family-friendly favorite dinners will make everyone happy.
Monday: Kung Pao Cauliflower - Kung Pao Cauliflower Recipe
"This kung pao cauliflower recipe is roasted on one sheet pan and covered in a delicious sauce! Serve alongside jasmine rice for the best dinner ever."
Tuesday: Coriander Chicken Thighs with Spring Vegetables, Gnocchi, and Lemon-Butter Sauce
"Succulent, crispy-skinned thighs, vibrant veggies, and pillowy potato dumplings, all dressed in a luscious lemon-butter pan sauce—really, what more could you ask for? Treat yourself to a chicken dinner that’s 100% as impressive as it sounds. It’s not one of those “ready-in-15-minutes” meals, but it is a plate you’ll be happy you pulled together after a weekend trip to the farmers’ market."
Wednesday: Low Carb Zucchini Enchiladas
"We’ll never say no to an enchilada…but sometimes we want to keep it on the lighter side, too. These enchiladas have a secret: They’re made with zucchini instead of tortillas, so they have all the gooey, cheesy goodness, minus the carbs."
Thursday: Quick and Easy: Chicken Thighs with Tomatoes and Zucchini
A quick chicken skillet dinner with fresh veggies of the season!
Friday: Instant Pot Italian Beef
"Instant Pot Italian Beef! Just a few minutes to prep and totally hands-off to make. Tender shredded beef, crusty buttered bread, melted provolone, salty tangy giardiniera, and some broth to dunk it all in. YES."
Treat: Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins
"Chocolate Zucchini Muffins are rich, delicious and loaded with flavor. Have ’em for breakfast all week long. Every morning is better with chocolate!"
